Game Science Center, Technology museum in Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg, Germany.
Description
The Game Science Center is a technology museum in Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg that focuses on experimental video game interfaces. About 25 interactive exhibits demonstrate different control technologies including gesture recognition, eye tracking, and voice command systems.
History
The museum was founded in 2014 by game developers and started as an independent project without government support. Over time, it became an established cultural institution in Berlin.
Culture
The center functions as a gathering space for Berlin's gaming creators and enthusiasts, where developers present their work and connect with others interested in the medium. This sense of community and creative exchange is palpable as you move through the exhibits.
Practical
The visit works best when you allow time to try the hands-on experiments, as many installations require interaction and exploration. Comfortable clothing helps when spending extended time at the interactive stations.

The Augmented Reality Sandbox exhibit lets visitors touch and shape real sand while a digital system visualizes height changes in real time. This hybrid experience shows how physical and digital worlds merge in modern game interfaces.
