Super Mario wheel in a curtained room: Hero Board Game Cafe Nowon
Hero Board Game Cafe Nowon Branch is an indoor game café in Nowon, Seoul, one minute from Nowon Station Exit 9, with board games plus Nintendo, PlayStation and Tekken under one roof. Three hours flew by in a curtained floor-seating room, where the visit meant ordering a drink and borrowing the Nintendo Super Mario steering wheel. Adults pay 3,000 won per hour, and a weekday unlimited pass at 5,000 won makes Hero Board Game Cafe Nowon an easy rainy-day date in Seoul.
