I wasn't familiar with Immersive Gamebox before our visit. I've heard of similar interactive gaming…read moresetups, but I didn't know IGB had a location in Arlington--or what to expect from the experience. I went with my niece and was genuinely surprised by how much fun we had! The games were interactive, challenging, and a total blast. We laughed a lot, got competitive, and I'm pretty sure people in the other rooms (or "boxes") could hear us having a great time. I'm really glad we gave it a try, and I'd definitely go back. If you have kids or are looking for a unique family outing, I'd say the passes are well worth it. One quick tip: Know exactly where you're going before you arrive. I didn't realize the location is on the outside of the mall, which wasn't a big issue for me, but it could be frustrating if you're tight on time. The confirmation emails do a solid job providing directions--if you're driving and parking. But if you're getting dropped off (like I was via Uber), the signage and location can be a little tricky to spot. A minor hiccup, but something to be aware of.

This was such a great experience, despite a ton of folks in our party not showing up, there were…read moreonly 3 of us. I was on my own team and was lagging behind the whole game but won at the last minute. That said, I loved that we had an in-person host. His energy was great and he kept things moving along with the help of the AI announcer. The games were super fun and interactive and I felt engaged from the beginning to the end of the event. I'd definitely go again (but to a closer location, like Arundel Mills)! Best part is they make a video for you, edit it and everything!

I had the best time celebrating my birthday here! Eli, Britney, and Cooper are the ABSOLUTE BEST!…read moreWe played on a Thursday night (4/30/26) and were immediately greeted with smiles, pleasantries, and instructions on checking in. I had notified them when booking that we were celebrating my birthday, and they put up a happy birthday background on the screen. Eli even took pictures of us pre-show in the game room. I was extremely touched by Eli and Britney's kindness and their above-and-beyond gestures! Britney presented me with a handwritten birthday card after the game show, and Eli gifted me with a t-shirt I was going to buy after the show. I hope they both know how special they made me feel; it truly warms my heart to have experienced their thoughtfulness, generosity, and kindness! I am FOREVER GRATEFUL and APPRECIATE ALL THAT THEY'VE DONE!! Now for the details: The game is an hour long, and if someone else books the same time slot, you may end up playing with random strangers, which we did. We definitely got our butts handed to us, but I still had fun! It consists of about 5-7 different randomized games. It's blue vs. red team, and the setup is in the style of a traditional TV game show, ranging from Jeopardy-style format to Wheel of Fortune, trivia, Family Feud, and Idiotest, etc. You really do feel like you're on a TV game show with a live host, buzzers, a big wheel to spin, and confetti exploding at the end! They do have some physical games; however, we had to forego those to be fair to the other team, which had a teammate on crutches. Britney was a lot of fun--super patient and considerate! I got a kick out of having to fill out the scantron with a big a#$ pencil. Make sure to arrive 15 minutes prior to your time slot. They have plenty of free games to play while you wait, and they have a bar to purchase beverages or you can ask for tap water. The Escape Game is also located in the building, and they have merchandise for sale, as well as merch for the Great Big Game Show. They have really cool shirts and hats available! At the end of the show, they offer 15 or 20% off your next booking. I'm not sure if there's an expiration date, but I hope not because I would love to come back. However, we live in VA Beach, so it's quite a drive. They do have restrooms. Parking is available in various parking garages among Georgetown. We paid to park in the lot next to RIMTANG which is really close.

He had spinach and cheese empanadas nearly ready for us when we arrived and after not too long, we all were ready to get the cooking started. We were either gathered around the kitchen island helping Chef Gustavo chop, peel or mix, seated at the long dinner table or hanging out on the patio outside. It was such a great mix of relaxing, sipping wine and getting our hands dirty and cooking a bit. He shared lots of cooking tips and tricks and made the entire night feel so casual, fun and intimate. We've all taken at least cooking class but this was more like being invited over for a friends dinner party. The paella came out SO incredibly. Packed with seafood (which we learned is actually not the traditional way to serve paella. Usually it is just a piece or two of protein and the rice is the star of the meal). So much flavor I could have had a million servings. It was delicious. For desert, Chef made dulce de leche crepes and I didn't think I had room before but I absolutely enjoyed at least two of these. I loved being a part of this awesome night and would definitely recommend a Cozymeal with Chef Gustavo!

We were greeted by 3 staff members (apologies I don't remember their names). I initially thought this was just a venue to smash stuff but it was explained that this is a mental health venture aimed at spiritual healing. After signing the waivers and donning our PPE, we went in. The wooden structure isn't huge so you cant get running starts or make any long over hear arm movements, but it ended being just the right amount of space to get your smash on. Initially I was caught up in the novelty of smashing things, but a point in time came where that novelty faded and I found myself tapping into an aggression and emotion I did not go there with. It wasn't until I stood there out of breath with my hands sore that I truly understood what this place was for. That session provided a space and avenue for me to truly let go, for just a little bit. If you haven't done that recently (or ever), you need to book a session to understand what im talking about. A challenge was issued to me to put in work on the water heater and I made a decent hole in it but that thing was tough. They sure don't make em like they used to.

The site was well furnished with safety gear (goggles, gloves, etc.), tools (bats, sledgehammers, etc.) and objects to smash (microwave oven, water heater, glass bottles, etc.).

The only downside was the service when we first arrived. We wanted to grab something to eat before playing, but after sitting down, nobody came over to serve us. We weren't even offered water. Eventually, we decided to get up and start playing instead. We ended up ordering food directly from the bar and opening a tab, which worked out perfectly fine. Despite that initial hiccup, we had a really great time! The atmosphere was fun, and the variety of games made it a great place to spend an evening. We'd definitely come back, but hopefully the table service will be a little more attentive next time!
