The Arcade Incident: A Retro Horrors: The Lost Decade Book

In the summer of 1986, The Pixel Palace mall arcade buzzes with the neon glow of high scores, token clinks, and synthwave music. But when a strange new game called Neon Abyss mysteriously appears without warning, everything changes. There are no rules-just a glitching screen pulling players deeper with each level, promising an impossible ending. Then, the disappearances begin.

Tommy Mitchell and his friends are obsessed with the game. But when their best friend isn't seen after reaching the final level, the kids suspect the arcade cabinet may be more than just pixels and circuits. As the game blurs into reality, and the mall itself starts to shift into something out of a nightmare, the group must uncover the sinister force behind Neon Abyss before they too get sucked inside.

BMX bikes, mixtapes, and mall pizza won't save them. In the Neon Abyss, there are no continues.
