The World Famous Camp Whaaat!? Arcade Cabins

The arcades return, this time in cabin form. Check what games the Whaaat!? gang has been salivating over the past year.

The Gymnasium – BBX

We learned a lot from last year, and one of those things is any game on a 20' screen is a good game. So come check out 3 of 'em, all in their 20' glory.

Critterrr Cabin – SL1

Ok, really, we swore we weren't going to do this again. But it's just so on theme that we couldn't help ourselves. Come see what animal-based games we included in this years Criterrr Cabin!

That Kid in Your Neighborhood's Cabin's Basement – SL3

Some kids can't go to camp without their technology. Good thing we're not that kind of camp. Come check out some of the best games from the past, courtesy of the Media Archaeology Lab.
