“Gamecity looks poised to become our industry’s first “Sundance”. A truly unique approach for hosting a game festival that seems long overdue.”

- Lorne Lanning

“..promises to be the most inventively programmed new arts festival of the year.”

- The Times

“OK, UK people, drop everything and listen up. Nottingham is hosting a videogames cultural festival called GameCity and their stuff is sounding really exciting. Nice and home-made, sort of cosy, but with massive names involved.”

- Wonderland

“GameCity shows us how a games shindig should be run”

“Any videogame festival that can reunite industry legends, lead to a Japanese game developer designing a playground, and evoke religious sentiments in a shopping centre is doing something very right for sure.

- Edge Magazine

“If you’re around the Midlands, you should get yourself to GameCity next October as it will be back, bigger and better than ever!”

- NewbReview

“It turns out the format of GameCity is amazing…
Everything was focused on making and playing – it was both way less about video games and way more about video games than any other event I’ve ever been to.”

- Adam “Atomic” Saltsman
