Explore the Place concept

ARCADE MUSE PLACE / THE NEXT CHAPTER

Let discovery travel
from Place to Place.

Masters are the people behind each Place. We are building toward a network where they can choose to connect, introduce each other’s work and plan shared activities. New reasons for visitors to explore another Place.

  1. 01

    Come to play.

    A game can be the first invitation into your creative world.

  2. 02

    Discover the work.

    A chapter of fiction, a series of illustrations, a short film. Give visitors something to explore before and after the game.

  3. 03

    Follow your curiosity.

    Introductions and shared activities could lead visitors to another creator’s Place, and something new to discover.

Give one discovery somewhere to go next.

A shared work can spark a conversation; a new release can give people a reason to return. Play, work and conversation can each be a reason to visit.

In development. Connected feeds and shared activities are planned for Places that choose to connect. These future services are not included in a BZ-2 purchase.

THE BZ-2 EXPERIENCE
Basic Zero / Edition 02

An invitation to slow down.
And let a little suspense in.

A small gesture.
A whole world moves.

A ball. A constellation of pins. A five-car race inside the machine. BZ-2 brings them together, carried by an original soundtrack.

Come a little closer

01 / THE FIRST GESTURE

One handle.
So many little paths.

Tap to launch. Drag to change the strength. A small gesture starts everything.

Tap to launchDrag to adjust

02 / THE PINBOARD

Follow
the silver ball.

Steel meets steel. A simulated collision changes the path and sends the ball into the next possibility.

Simulated pin collisionsWatch the changing path

03 / THE RACE WITHIN

A race lives
at the heart.

Five cars. A close race. Pinboard action connects to the race on the screen within: overtaking, cornering and acceleration.

OvertakingCorneringAcceleration

04 / THE AFTERGLOW

Stay for
the finish.

Three minutes of AFTERLIGHT. Then the finish: your position, your score, your moment to remember.

AFTERLIGHT · 172 BPMOriginal soundtrack

YOUR FIRST THREE MINUTES

Simple to enter.
More to discover.

Free demo · PC + mobile · Sound starts when you play

  1. Start the track.

    Open the machine and press Play. The music sets the circuit in motion.

  2. Adjust your launch power.

    Tap the right handle to fire or stop. Drag it up or down to change the strength. On a keyboard, use the arrow keys.

    A small adjustment changes the path.
  3. Follow the connection.

    Balls entering START or V add coloured indicators to the queue. Watch the pinboard’s routes connect to the race, and follow your score to the finish.

A NETWORK FOR CREATIVE DISCOVERY

One Place.
New paths to discovery.

Imagine a visitor playing at a writer’s Place, discovering an illustrator through a shared post, then following a video to its creator. That is the kind of connected discovery we are building toward.

Master network: in development

We plan to connect feeds, work introductions and shared score challenges between Places that agree to connect. Each Master chooses the work they feature and the connections they welcome. These services are not included in a BZ-2 purchase.

ARCADE MUSE / BZ-2

A new way into your work.

Arcade Muse creates browser arcades that make room for play, creative work and discovery. BZ-2 brings a pinboard and a five-car race into one experience.

This is the official product landing page. Atrium is a separate destination for purchasers and is still being built.
