"We're hoping that the night itself is an absolutely amazing and exciting event, but also that we raise a lot of money for Mind, and raise the awareness around mental health."
Philip runs the retro events with Matthew Andrews. They are both gaming enthusiasts themselves and came up with the idea of bringing games and pubs together for events as that is where computer enthusiasts of their generation now like to relax and spend their spare time.
For the Mortal Kombat competition, names will be randomly drawn to fight each other. It will then be the best of three full fights, at three rounds a fight.

Philip added: "It's totally free to enter, and people can just show up and put their name down for the competition. Or come to watch.
"We will encourage donations through the night, but they aren't mandatory."
The event at Kolsch takes place at 7.30pm on Thursday, December 21.
