Best Apps for Feeling 80's Nostalgia
Don't you just wish you could go back in time when music was better and the games were more fun? Now you can travel to the 80s with these amazing apps.
The 1980s were an unforgettable time. Big shoulder pads and even bigger hair were all the rage. The music was diverse and, perhaps more so than at any time before, there was something for everyone. Who doesn't feel the nostalgia for massive rock concerts and Dynasty? Of course, one of the staples of the era was analog photography. If you're hosting a party inspired by the 80s or simply want to create that polaroid camera look for your precious memories, you can always give your digital shots a more retro vibe with filters.
Another bit of tech that emerged in the 70s but really took hold of the subsequent decade was game machines. A staple of the arcade, they offered endless hours of fun. With the advent of personal computers and consoles, they went out of fashion but, in recent years, have had a bit of a comeback, appearing on smartphones across the globe. PAC-MAN was perhaps the biggest hit and to this day remains a classic. There are few games that will catapult you back in time the way this simple amusement can.
Speaking of games, it is impossible to talk about this time without touching on titles devoted to racing. Cars, motorbikes, and trucks all had their triumphant start during the era. Finding remakes of some good old classics could be another great way to enjoy a favorite hobby and relive the past. Crank up your favorite 80s playlist on Spotify and try to win that race. The only thing belonging to the decade we'd advise against is hairspray. It's not good for the atmosphere - or your hair. Everything else is permitted - or even encouraged.

It's impossible to think of the 80s without arcade games and PAC-MAN. This modern-day recreation is perhaps the most faithful to the original.
