Join us for a major arcade high score tournament at the Galloping Ghost Arcade! The main tournament will consist of 20 games that will be announced at the start of the tournament! Full stream coverage. Cash & prizes to the winners! This will be the first of an annual event. With Funspot unable to run their tournament this year, we hope that we can accommodate the high score community. In the future, the tournament date will be later in the the year as to not conflict with Funspots’ established event.
FIVE NEW games added to the arcade floor for the T20 tournament!
First up is SOLAR FOX! Dedicated original cab!
The second new game for the T20 added to the arcade floor is BUBBLES! Dedicated original cabinet! In amazing condition. Great artwork by the late Python Anghelo. Released from Williams in 1982! Huge thanks to Jason Camberis for helping us get this one!
Third new game for the T20 is KICK / KICKMAN! Released from Midway in 1981! Another dedicated original cabinet!! They had changed the name from Kick to KickMan later in the production.
Fourth new game for the arcade floor during the T20 event is MONSTER BASH! Released from SEGA in 1982. This one is VERY RARE to say the least. Again an original dedicated cabinet. Has anyone ever even heard of it?
