GAMM Unveils Largest Italian Museum Dedicated to Gaming's Rich Legacy

Rome's newest attraction: GAMM, the Game Museum! Now open to the public in Piazza della Repubblica, this expansive museum is the culmination of Marco Accordi Rickards' vision – a writer, journalist, professor, and CEO of Vigamus.

Rickards, a passionate advocate for video game preservation, describes GAMM as an immersive journey blending history, technology, and interactive gameplay. Built upon the legacy of Vigamus, a Rome-based gaming museum that has welcomed over two million visitors since 2012, GAMM boasts 700 square meters across two floors, divided into three captivating thematic sections.
