The largest arcade in the country in Brookfield, IL will reveal its nine-hundredth video arcade game on Monday, October 17th at 5:00pm to streamed live on http://twitch.tv/gallopingghostarcade. Doc Mack, who has hosted every Monday Mystery Game live-stream minus one since its inception with the introduction of Missing in Action as the first MMG years ago will unveil this latest milestone. The Monday Mystery Game is a weekly competition where players battle for the top three scores of the day to earn points toward the GGA 10x championship, where a season ends when a player crosses the 30 point threshold and is awarded the 10x title, currently held by the 2022 Gamer of the Year Andrew Iwaszko. Galloping Ghost celebrated its 12th anniversary this past August.



But that's not all, on Saturday October 22nd, at the Pinball Expo Galloping Ghost will be holding its fourth PinExpo Arcade tournament slated to be contested over seven games starting in the late morning and continuing all afternoon. The winner of the tournament will receive a new championship belt. Daniel Saam has won all three previous PinExpo Arcade tournaments.
