The story so far

ARKD BOX is the games label of Luis Serrano, better known as Luis Nomad. It started with plywood and joysticks, and it carries on with games for kids and the grown-ups who still remember the arcade.

Select stage

  1. 2018

    Level 1: The cabinet

    ARKD BOX was born as real arcade cabinets, built by hand in Spain. The pixel logo glowed in seven sunset bands with an ultramarine shadow.

  2. 2019

    Level 2: The side art

    Finished cabinets rolled out with neon palm trees, synthwave sunsets and heroes on the side panels. They looked great in a living room. Getting them into one was another story.

  3. PAUSE

    Level 3: Pause

    Shipping a hundred kilos of wood and glass across the country, safely and affordably, turned out to be the boss we couldn't beat. The cabinets went quiet. The name stayed in a drawer.

  4. START

    Level 4: Press start

    Luis started making games again: football with big heads for his son Joel, starring the whole family, a tomb puzzle that pays tribute to Oh Mummy, a Halloween brawler and a rhythm game for Luna.

  5. 2026

    Level 5: The box reopens

    ARKD BOX comes back as the home for all of those games. Same logo, same sunset, a new box to fill.

Luis Serrano “Nomad”

Luis Serrano “Nomad” writes, designs, codes and scores the games. He's a developer, a musician and Joel's dad, which explains the soundtracks and the family on the football pitch. The games are dedicated to Joel and Luna, which explains the football, the cat and the very specific sense of humour.

House rules

  • No ads in kids' games

    Kids shouldn't have to watch a commercial to keep playing.

  • No dark patterns

    No fake timers, no loot boxes, no nagging. If a game costs money, it says so up front.

  • No tracking here

    This website doesn't use analytics cookies or ad trackers.

  • Games you can finish

    A beginning, a middle and an end credits screen. Like the ones we grew up with.

Why “ARKD BOX”?

Say it out loud: arcade box. It was the name of a box with an arcade inside. Now it’s a box full of games.
