Came here for my nephew's birthday party and had an absolute blast. The NFC bracelets allow you to scan into the games, and you can stick with the randomized name you have or you can change it in the profile during setup, it was really fun to call each other by our code names. The games have a variety of different skills to leverage, and are generally fairly physical, but should be manageable for most folks. The drinks are also pretty great, we tried a Ring Toss, and I was pleasantly surprised with the flavor profile. The peach rings inside were a fun touch. They also had popcorn, hot dogs, pretzels, and other goodies. The staff was really friendly and they had jugglers and stilt walkers, also adding to the overall ambiance of the space. I loved it. The set work is incredible, and the ideas for the games were genuinely clever and the a/v aspect was on point. They should be really proud of what they accomplished here.

This place was silly, one-of-a-kind fun! Our kids are 13, 11, and 9 and they all had a blast. Our group of 5 was perfect because we could all play together (the games accept up to 6 players). There were 12 games- different spins on carnival/video games. We stayed the full 75 minutes, but took a 10 minute break in the middle to get soda and some popsicles (we went to other world for an hour first, so we were a little tired and overstimulated by then!) They have a little snack bar with popcorn and drinks. (Soda is $3, cocktails are $10-15.) We each had a different favorite game, and had enough time to do most things twice. We didn’t have to wait more than a few minutes for each game. It would have been helpful to know how much time we had left (the clock starts when you fill out your waiver) so just look at the time when you go in so you know when you’ll be done. I liked that there was a mix of competitive and cooperative games, and different styles so everyone could find something they liked and were good at. My son had already gone with some friends for a birthday party (10 year old boys) and they loved it. But it could be a fun date night (my husband and I did play a couple things on our own). I would maybe go back with a different group for a new experience, but once or twice is probably enough. So creative though- the space is over the top with themed touches. So glad we checked it out! And if you’re going to also visit other world while you’re there - you should!!- I would recommend doing that first so you can just take your time exploring that part before doing the timed portion of the games.

It's a lot of fun! They have many carnival inspired games that are both cooperative and competitive. The lines aren't long from one game to the next, and the DJ that was playing the music was amazing!!!

ame grounds has got to be one of the coolest experiences i've ever had. it's carnival, but 1000% better and funkier. it brings a lot of whimsy into your day—or even life, and is something i would do a million times over.
