Arcades in Ubud

We haven't mapped any arcades in Ubud, Bali yet. We searched about 20 km around town in OpenStreetMap's community data — arcades — and came up empty. That usually means the places exist but nobody's mapped them, not that there's nothing to find. This page refreshes daily from the latest map data, so a blank today can be a full guide tomorrow.

Why arcades are worth mapping

Arcades are one of the last truly public play spaces: cheap, social, no membership, no app. The bar-arcade revival has given a lot of towns their third place back. That's why this page exists even with nothing to list — we'd rather show an honest blank than invent arcades in Ubud.

Ubud sits near the equator. There's no real off-season for arcades here, so venues run on their own rhythms — check websites for tournament nights and free-play evenings.

Every arcade that gets mapped here appears in alphabetical order with what the community map knows: address, hours, website. No sponsored slots, ever.

Arcade smarts for Ubud

No mapped arcades yet, but the arcade skills work anywhere. Four worth knowing:

• Save your high-score photo. Take the photo. High scores are ephemeral and the bragging rights are forever.
• Learn one game deeply. Regulars pick a machine and master it. Chasing high scores on one game beats dabbling across twenty.
• Check machine maintenance. A venue that maintains its machines cares. Dead screens and sticky buttons are a review of the management.
• Ask about tournaments. Fighting game and pinball tournaments run weekly in many towns. Beginners are usually welcome and it's the fastest way to improve.

What earns a listing in Ubud

Our bar is a dedicated games venue open to the public. Arcades, bar-arcades, retro gaming bars — if the machines are the point, it qualifies. Casino floors don't.

When a qualifying arcade gets mapped in Ubud, this page updates on the next refresh with its name, address where available, and whatever hours, phone or website the mappers recorded. Nothing here is paid placement and nothing is sponsored — if it's on the map, it's on the page.

This page refreshes daily from the latest map data, so the moment a qualifying arcade appears in Ubud's OpenStreetMap data, it shows up here — usually within a day of being mapped.

Know an arcade here that isn't listed? The fastest route onto this page runs through OpenStreetMap: add it as leisure=amusement_arcade with its name and address, and it'll appear here after our next daily refresh. Local knowledge beats every dataset. The most useful details are the arcade's name, its street address, and its opening hours — even a name and a pin on the map is enough to get started.
