Gaming pub Cybermachina – interior design
The interior design of Cybermachina has an amazing atmosphere. And it evokes those most emotional childhood memories. Have you ever broken a magical rainbow spring, which is a beloved souvenir from your siblings’ holiday? Did you get your parents’ hackles up by sticking colorful stickers on the wall unit? Or maybe during computer science class you took the mouse from your friend who was maximally focused on playing Minesweeper and deliberately clicked on the bomb, making him cry? We experienced all this years ago and thanks to Cybermachina we returned to those beautiful(?) moments with a hint of melancholy.
But it is not everything. Fans of retro & vintage style will surely like furniture, electronics, books and board game packaging that have been badly damaged by time. And a word about details. Beer tap with the character of Mario, binders with the famous polish magazine ‘Świat Wiedzy’ collection or Pac-Man neon icons on the walls. This artistic mess creates a really nice and slightly nostalgic atmosphere.
Cybermachina – what can you play?
Don’t expect us to give you a list of games you can play in Cybermachina. First, there are a lot of them. Secondly, we don’t want to spoil your surprise. But okay, we’ll show you what we’ve been doing. We started with a round in Mario Kart, then we had a fight in Mortal Kombat and in the and we played a concert of Guitar Hero.
Heading towards the bar, we passed an inconspicuous, barely working monitor, on which an old-school Minesweeper was blinking. We couldn’t resist it. To take our tired eyes off the screens, we switched to board games. You can choose from such classics as: Ego Love (a good choice for a date), Dixit (a good choice for an integration meeting), Jenga (a good choice after one drink) or Balance Chairs (a good choice after two drinks). Finally, a round of checkers and the queen’s gambit.

Cybermachina – worth it?
- Patrix – 9/10. A great place for people who love both computer and board games! You will spend a great time here with your friends. You will drink delicious drinks. You will play board games. Perfect for me!
- Wiolczix – 8/10. I’m no geek, and I liked this place from the first play. I was a bit afraid of the typical nerd climate – completely unnecessarily. Here I met a real return to the past (in fact, to very early youth). A big plus for all the details of the decor. I really like it when the owner of the place takes care of the smallest details to create a great atmosphere for guests. A small minus for the fact that I had to endure the bitterness of defeat several times after losing in Mortal Kombat. I don’t remember any other flaws. 🙂
