GAMM Is the Biggest Game Museum in Italy Where You Can Share Pieces of Game History

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

Rickards' passion for preserving video game history shines through in GAMM, which he describes as a journey blending history, technology, and interactive gameplay. Built upon the legacy of Vigamus (another successful Rome gaming museum with over two million visitors since 2012), GAMM offers a significantly enhanced experience.

This impressive 700-square-meter museum, spread across two floors, is organized into three distinct thematic areas:
