Which Arcade Cabinet Are You?

10 questions · easy · Personality quiz · Arcade Classics

Eight cabinets from the golden age and its fighting-game second act, read as temperaments: the pattern engine, the improviser, the climber, the versus technician, the risk trader, the calm stacker, the finisher, and the drifter drawn in light.

  • Mortal Kombat: The Finisher You are the cabinet the adults worried about: Mortal Kombat, digitized, theatrical, and built around the finishing move. Your temperament is intensity with presentation.
  • Asteroids: The Drifter You are lines of light on a dark field: Asteroids, the vector original, and your temperament is physics.
