“A mix of humor and engineering,” a voice whispers in your ear. Welcome to Novelty Automation, London’s most wonderfully bizarre arcade. This isn’t your typical arcade filled with flashing lights and blaring sound effects. Novelty Automation is a world of its own, a testament to the quirky genius of its creator, Tim Hunkin. Imagine stepping into the mind of an inventor who combines a love for traditional arcade games with a healthy dose of satire. Each machine here is handcrafted, a unique creation designed to make you laugh, think, and maybe even question the world around you. You’ll find machines like “Pet or Meat,” a darkly humorous take on our food choices, and “Autofrisk,” a commentary on modern security measures. But these machines are more than just social commentary; they’re incredibly intricate pieces of engineering. Hunkin, a skilled engineer who spent years on conventional projects, poured his heart and soul into building these playful masterpieces. Each lever, each cog, each sound effect is a testament to his dedication to the art of silliness. As you wander through this cabinet of curiosities, remember that you’re experiencing a dying art form – the coin-operated, handcrafted arcade experience. So, go ahead, grab a handful of tokens, and step into Hunkin’s world of whimsical inventions. You won’t regret it.
