“New York Times” August 2200 new: “Welcome to the future city, welcome to ARCADE CITY. Stop living in a auto-moving chair.

Your physical activities will give energy to the city. Enter different doors around the city for making different activities and gaining money. At the same time, you will learn how to use your feet again, like our ancestors. Play for your life.”
Year 2220: World ended.
