I was in a search of a fun group activity here in the Orange County County area. And we had seen…read moreactivate Tustin on social media. I'm excited to book. All in all, it was actually very fun. We are glad that we did the one hour session because the 90 minute might've been a little bit too long for us. Lots of different rooms with different activities spanning over from shooting baskets, throwing balls, touching screens, some of them also including different activities with sensors on the ground. Overall, it is actually really fun and interactive, and it was a fun time. It was also cool that there were prizes at the very end that we could redeem if you wanted to. When we first checked in the team members were super nice and went through the whole process. They gave us a wristband for the lockers on the side room. And once we were all done, we then registered our white bracelets that were for the games and also that was what had our tags and usernames attached to them. Can't wait to come back. Pricing seemed very fair and it wasn't over the top. Can't wait to do these activities again.

Activate is an immersive and interactive gaming experience located The District in Tustin. There…read moreare multiple locations across the country and the world. There's ample free parking on-site at the mall. There are 13 rooms that offer different game options. Even within each room there are different kinds of games so there is lots of variety. There are free lockers to put your stuff in while you play, but you can also carry things like phones around. Some games require running around a lot so you should wear closed toe shoes. Games range from laser, floor tile, basketball, and more. When it is very busy you can put your name on the queue until the current group finishes. Some of the games were very short when it got really busy, basically like 30 seconds so not really a game at all before we had to exit the room. The rooms also don't have an easy way to tell if it's occupied so you have to peak into a dark room to see if there are shadows of people inside. I would've preferred a light that signifies that it's occupied so it's easier to tell. The games also start immediately after you enter the room and the game instructions aren't always clear. It's similar to recently-opened Hijinx Hotel in Irvine in that each of the rooms has a different objective and you work with your team to achieve it. I think I prefer Hijinx Hotel more because their games are funner and the experience is better, but this is still a fun and family-friendly event.

Top Canvas is a claw machine spot located right next to The District at Tustin Legacy (next to the…read moreAMC Theatre). Top Canvas also has other locations (Alhambra, Downey, Torrance, and Milpitas in Northern California) that operate as collectible stores and this is the only Top Canvas location that runs as a claw machine arcade. [Parking]: Easy and free parking at The District at Tustin Legacy. [Selection & Price]: Apparently the shop redesigned their claw machines and prize system in recent months. Players can now trade plushies for points and use those points to redeem more desirable prizes. As for trade-in prizes, they have selected signed Funko Pop figures / giant Pokémon plushies / other generic plushies (25%), blind boxes (50%), and graded Pokémon cards / booster packs / other collectibles (25%). Personally it would be better if they had fewer blind boxes as trade-in prizes and focused more on curated Sanrio plushies or unique action figures. [Point system]: For play packs, $10 = 20 tokens, $20 = 42 tokens, $50 = 110 tokens, and $100 = 230 tokens. Claw machines with numbered stickers indicate how many points each plush is worth and most machines indicate 15 points per plush. Blind box trade-in values range from 45 points to 125 points. [Conclusion]: It is nice to have claw machines with a higher win rate than places like Round1 + the ability to trade plushies for better prizes, but I do think their prizes are not as good as places like Round1. Personally I still prefer other claw machine spots like Infinity Claws in Rowland Heights and I also like Top Canvas's collectible stores better than this claw machine-only concept store. P.S. - Players can ask the staff to rearrange plushies in some machines.

Shoutout to Jason on staff - super professional and welcoming.

To whom it may concern, I am writing regarding Order…read more#US94171 for two "Mosaic Classes in Fort Worth" totaling $300.94, which was confirmed on April 12. I have spent weeks trying to resolve this issue professionally and patiently, and I am extremely disappointed by the way your company has handled it. The class was canceled by your company - not by me - yet I have still not received either a replacement class, a gift card, or a refund despite numerous attempts to contact your team. I have called multiple times (at least seven separate occasions) and was repeatedly told that my information and emails would be passed along to management. I was later informed by an employee that my concerns were apparently never even documented or forwarded. That level of disorganization and lack of accountability is unacceptable for a business handling customers' money. I was initially told I could reschedule into another class, but then informed that no one even knows when another Fort Worth pop-up class will happen. After that, I was promised a gift card, which I also never received. At this point, I have been given nothing but inconsistent answers, ignored communications, and false assurances while your company continues to hold over $300 of my money. Your policy regarding missed classes is irrelevant in this situation because I did not fail to attend a scheduled class -- your company canceled the event and failed to provide a reasonable alternative afterward. 1 am formally requesting a full refund of $300.94 immediately. If this issue is not resolved promptly, I will be moving forward with: A chargeback/dispute through my bank Public reviews detailing my experience Complaints through consumer protection channels and the Better Business Bureau Sharing my experience publicly across social media platforms I wanted to resolve this directly and professionally, but the complete lack of communication and accountability has made this experience incredibly frustrating and disappointing. I expect a response and resolution within 48 hours. Sincerely, Alisha Sawkins
