The Gucci app has added two 8-bit games to the platform, which are inspired by early arcade gaming. The games take inspiration from its Alessandro Michele-designed clothing, which combines past and current fashion themes. The games are titled 'Gucci Bee' and 'Gucci Ace,' both of which bring users closer to the company's history.
The first game, Gucci Bee, is a maze-based game where users navigate a bee through the maze. Gucci Ace references to one of the company's sneaker designs. The game takes users through different time periods, as it starts with an 80s influenced 8-bit game and as users progress, they are taken into more a more modern game.
