What is the name of the arcade where Max and the boys spend time in season 2?

The Palace Arcade is the arcade where Max and the boys spend time in season 2.

The arcade is a popular meeting place for Hawkins teenagers and is where Max demonstrates her skill at Dig Dug. She uses the initials MADMAX on the machine, attracting the attention of Dustin, Mike, Lucas and Will before she officially joins their group.

The Palace Arcade reflects the real popularity of video-game arcades in the 1980s. Its machines and high-score tables also help establish Max as a capable gamer before the characters know much about her. The location is different from Starcourt Mall, which does not become part of the story until season 3. The arcade is most closely associated with Max's introduction.
