An actor later jumped out screaming my name and continued to follow us, much to my screaming delight. (Not a spoiler because they seem to switch things up, which is so rad). So damn scary!!! The actors' makeup was on point and the costumes-wow!! Everyone really put their heart into it. The jump scares were legit too-to the point I screamed pretty much nonstop. Thanks all for such a spooky fun time! We'll definitely come back next year!

The challenges, puzzles, and games really make you think--you definitely have to process the clues carefully! There are multiple levels to complete, and throughout the experience you're asked questions that determine what type of agent you are, which was a really cool touch. It was challenging, but in the best way. Now that I understand how everything works, I definitely want to go back and do it again to see if I can do even better! If you're looking for something interactive, different, and a lot of fun, I highly recommend checking this place out. We'll definitely be back!

I was invited to a birthday party here for my sons classmate…read more I was not impressed with the overall set up, but then again, I guess it's meant to be a practical set up. I expected it to go along with it's name... when you enter there are regular plastic banquet tables with attached benches set up on either side of the room. Rows of shelves line the walls on all sides with plaster molds for ones selection, against equally uninspiring colored walls. A little cluttered console table makes for a counter tucked before another seperate-just as practical room. If your main focus is to paint molds and chat then its great. If you're seeking a bit more whimsy and atmospher you can creat the same scene offered at home with a few thoughtful purchases from Target or Amazon. Aside from the serviceable air, my kids enjoyed their selves at the party. The staff were nice and although my sons little projects were hardly glazed... the kids were happy. I wouldn't return again.

My daughter absolutely loved Mercer Labs! She had already gone on a camp trip and enjoyed it so…read moremuch that we decided to go back together. I found a Groupon for around $75 total for one adult and one child, which made the experience feel much more reasonably priced. Regularly it's about $60 per person. This place is truly a sensory explosion in the best way. She enjoyed every floor and pretty much every activity. From the swings in the first room to the sand play toward the end, there was always something new for her to explore. One of her favorite parts was coloring her own creation and then having it uploaded onto the big screen. Later, we were walking through another area and she spotted her creation running around on a completely different screen, which she thought was the coolest thing ever. There are so many interactive, visual, and hands-on experiences that kept her interested the entire time. We spent a little under two hours there, which felt like plenty of time for us to enjoy everything without feeling rushed. Definitely a fun experience for kids, especially if they enjoy art, lights, movement, and interactive activities. Seeing how much fun she had made it worth the trip back!

How Long? 60-90 minutes. We spent 80 or so for the 15 "installations," with the bottom floor taking…read morethe least amount of time Price: Around $60 per person. There are also Groupon deals Current Exhibit: Maestros and the Machines Deals: They have a "Happy Hour Package" available Monday through Wednesday from 5-6:45 PM, which gets you a normally very overpriced seltzer Other notes: It is hard to see in some places as it gets quite dark occasionally. The advertised "Ball Pond" is more of a hazard than fun I was at this unique, relatively new interactive art museum with another person around a week ago, having walked in while walking around as we were both curious. They list themselves accurately as a mix of "interactive spaces that blend light, sound, and space." Tickets were easy enough to purchase while there, and we were inside soon, with them giving us a general overview of what we would see without spoiling much. Of the 15 installations, my favorites were mostly near the beginning, which included The Map, Infinite, and Volumetric. Compared to some of the later ones, these were massive and felt more immersive. I liked the sound design, as well as the various graphics, with The Map in particular feeling all-encompassing from all the various scenes being displayed. I wasn't as big a fan of the more interactive ones, as it didn't feel like they worked particularly well. The 4DSound was unique as the audio did move around, but the booming bass drowned out most other background noise. The Cave had a nice display of fake hydrangeas around, but the monkeys reminded me too much of AI nonsense. This room also included the pricey but excellent Taste Labs, which had some nice flavored seltzers that were very overpriced but tasty. I think it was $8 or so for the lychee one. Then came the downstairs, which was my least favorite. The first more interactive exhibit allowed people to move their hands around to alter the screen, but it didn't seem to work particularly well. There was an interesting robot that excavated and danced/drew with sand where you could also make things, and there was an area for people to draw stuff as well. Last and certainly least was the Ball Pond, a giant but poorly designed ball pit. The area is dark, and it is very easy to fall inside, with the areas entering the ball pit being oddly hard. Case in point: I fell when I got out of the pit onto that hard surface, landing on my leg, which left a mark, and my left rib, which is still bothering me. Fun. Outside of the fall, I had a pretty nice time. I honestly didn't mind the price, as you can spend a good amount of time inside and they clearly put a lot of effort into this. This is not my favorite museum I've been to, but I would recommend checking it out.

I got to come here during their soft opening on March 12th with my toddler and husband. This…read moreplayspace/arcade took over the old Party City and sheesh I didn't realize the Party City that was here was this big! A bummer was that there was no promotions for the soft opening and they were only offering one for their grand opening on Sunday. It would've been cool to get a coupon or 1 free arcade play or complimentary socks for the playspace for the soft opening, but whatever, we still stayed and enjoyed. The space is large and filled with lots of fun areas for both younger and older kids. I was told that this was actually their largest location. On weekdays, the trampoline/play area is 1.5 hrs for 24.99+tax and 2.5 hrs is 27.99+tax. Weekends it is 27.99 and 32.99+tax, respectively. It is $3.00 if you don't bring your own grippy socks - and you'll need them (some areas were slick even with the mats, padding and grip socks on). They offer different packages for their points for the arcade and if they are like their other locations, will probably offer lots of different promotions :) The play area is on the ground floor and the arcade is on the lower level. There is a "bead"/pebble area (similar to sand play, but much cleaner), a large ball pit with slides, climbing, interactive video games, timed obstacle course, trampolines, foam pits, Floor is Lava game and lots more! We stayed in this area for the duration of our paid time and then went to check out the arcade area on the lower level, but you can go in/out between the two areas if you want. Down in the arcade area they also have bumper cars, various VR games, archery as well as a bunch of fun games and crane games. The lights are fun and engaging like their other locations. We got to play some crane games and won some plushies :) All in all a great time and my little one is already asking to go back!

I usually don't leave bad reviews, especially for family-owned businesses, but unfortunately, this…read moreexperience was very disappointing. They advertise a 9 PM closing time, so I drove an hour to give my daughter the full hour and a half for her birthday. When we arrived, we were told they were actually closing in 30 minutes, around 8 PM. I was then told that if we wanted to enter, we still had to pay for the full hour and a half. I offered to pay for the 30 mins but they insisted on paying 1.5 hours and only allow them to play for 30 mins. I explained that we had driven an hour, but they were unwilling to make any accommodation. I found this extremely unfair and disappointing. Unfortunately, I will not be returning, and I cannot recommend this business to others.
