Applications are open through Oct. 31 at 11:59 p.m. for the Winter 2026 [Wondercab Residency](https://www.instagram.com/p/DeAaVJwlbV3/?ref=killscreen.com), the program that takes an independent game and builds it into a custom cabinet on the floor of [Wonderville](https://www.wonderville.nyc/?ref=killscreen.com), the Brooklyn arcade bar that already runs more than 30 custom-built, free-to-play machines. Applications go through the venue's site; the announcement went up on the venue's Instagram last week.

The current resident shows what the deal looks like. *Reaper Madness*, by Irreparable Games, holds the Fall 2026 slot, and its cabinet debuted on Oct. 4 at the New York Games Week kickoff party. 

Most small games live as links now, frictionless and bodiless, and a cabinet is a nice change: a street address and controls chosen for this one game and no other. Wonderville has been making that case for years. When we covered [Alt Ctrl Fest in September](https://www.killscreen.com/at-wonderville-nine-games-replaced-the-gamepad-entirely/), nine games had replaced the gamepad entirely, and the venue's cabinet [*Step Right Up!* crossed a Zoltar machine with vector graphics](https://www.killscreen.com/wondervilles-new-cabinet-step-right-up-crosses-a-zoltar-machine-with-vector-graphics/).

The free KS Radar letter flags residencies and open calls for small games while there is still time to apply. Three short issues a week.
