Local games, chiptunes, food you’ll see at Arcade @ The Oval

The main event at Arcade @ The Oval is the biggest video game in the world. But it’s also a celebration of all things local.

We’re playing Tetris on the Cira Centre tomorrow at Arcade @ The Oval to kick off Philly Tech Week presented by AT&T (we moved the event from Friday to Saturday because of rain), and we’ll also be playing more than a dozen locally-built games, eating from food trucks, drinking local beer and dancing to chiptunes.
