Arcade

Description

Denotes an arcade or "arcade-like" game, whose gameplay mimics or was inspired by a traditional coin-op arcade game. Arcade games usually have very little puzzle-solving, complex thinking, or strategy skills needed; the focus is on reflexes and "twitch". The Arcade genre is usually used as an additional modifier to Action games.

Note: For exact conversions of coin-op arcade games to computer platforms, don't forget the "Coin-Op Conversion" genre as well.
