Museum of Soviet arcade machines
Yesterday I and my friend visited an interesting place in Moscow. It was the museum of Soviet arcade machines. I think it's a paradise for people, who has grew up in the Soviet Union. It gives them a chance to come back in childhood.
We came in the museum, bought tickets and we were gave two plastic cups. There were fifteen Soviet coins with a face value of 15 copeck in each plastic cup. We threw the coins into the arcade machines and injoyed games.
I was surprised when I had seen the arcade machine of my childhood in the museum. It was a seesaw "Petushok" (Сockerel). You can see it on the third picture. When I was a child I liked to swing on it. And I swung on it again!
There were a lot of arcade machines, which I didn't know as I was born in the late eighties. However, I liked to play by them. Nowadays the museum has over 40 units, including the working ones!
I found at home some Soviet coins with a face value of 15 copeck and we used them for extra games. There were arcade machines with aerated water which was took Soviet coins with a face value of 3 copeck.
I want to thank owners of the museum!

Yesterday I and my friend and I visited an interesting place in Moscow.
I think it's a paradise for people, who has grew up in the Soviet Union. не надо запятая
It gives them a chance to come back to their childhood. или лучше "a chance to revisit their childhood" - это идеальный глагол для такой ситуации.
We went in the museum, bought tickets and we were given two plastic cups.
There were fifteen Soviet coins with a face value of 15 kopecks (я чаще встречаю это, написанное так) in each plastic cup.
We threw the coins into the arcade machines and enjoyed games.
I was surprised when I saw an arcade machine of my childhood in the museum. ("from my childhood" более распространенный вариант)
You can see it in the third picture.
There were a lot of arcade machines (запятой нет) that I didn't know, as I was born in the late eighties. тоже можно "since" вместо "as". "Since" звучит чуть более разговорно, в то время как "as" (использовано именно в этом смысле) звучит чуть более... книжным. Но оба вариантов очень хороши для повседневного использования.
However, I liked to play by them.
I found at home some Soviet coins at home with a face value of 15 (k)copecks and we used them for extra games.
I want to thank the owners of the museum!
