Arcades in Berlin

Hi,

My husband & I will be traveling to Germany together with our 19 year old son who has autism in December. We plan to go to Christmas markets & explore in Munich, Berlin & Nuremberg. This isn't an overly exciting thing to do for our son & he wants to try to find some arcades & indoor water parks or thermal baths. Anyone know of any video game arcades in these cities? I've looked around but i have only found virtual reality arcades or pinball arcades. I told him I'd ask on the forum to see if anyone has any suggestions. Also has anyone been to Liquidrom in Berlin? Or know of any other great options for indoor baths? I know these are very specific questions, but I figured I'd try! Thanks in advance!

He can have some fun at Computer Game Museum or at Game State Berlin.
Also Technical Museum and Spy Museum are good alternatives.
There are a lot of other museums that might interest a young man (example collection in German language).
We have also a lot of events in Berlin around gaming and social media; so he can research a little bit based on his interests.
There are also tons of gaming shops in Berlin offering everything for various special interest games.

btw: Let him search and find what he wants to do in this city. With 19 years old he is legally seen as adult in Germany.

Thanks for that info! I'll definitely look into these things. He found Game State in his search so I'll have him look at the others. He definitely might enjoy the gaming museums. I hadn"t even thought of that1

Tropical Islands is 50km south of Berlin, but is it something that you could fit in? Worth considering?

In Munich, Therme Erding might be of interest.
