Decline of gaming cafe culture in Nepal

Gaming cafes still receive a respectable amount of gamers but that is just a smouldering remnant of the once vibrant and active gaming cafe culture.

In the heart of Jhamsikhel, surrounded by the bright neon lights of bars and cafes and hidden behind a convenience store and a restaurant sits Amol Cyber, one of the oldest gaming cafes in Nepal. The cafe was once a staple name among gamers from Lalitpur to Kathmandu.
