This indoor playground for kids 10 and under opened in May 2019; it's located in a plaza in Avon,…read moreCT. I've had it bookmarked for a while and finally was able to check it out. They also host birthday parties. General admission for kids 2 and older is $16.95, adults are free; if they have a sibling under 2, they are also free. I purchased the general admission ticket ($16.95) plus a pre-loaded $16 game bracelet for $26.95. Shoes are not allowed so socks are recommended. There was a snack area and tables for the parents. Restrooms were clean and had changing tables. The arcade area was small with an air hockey table, photo booth, and various arcade games. My toddler loved the dinosaur egg machine; there were toys inside those golden eggs. The playground has two levels and they were soft on the feet. The slides were steep but my son loved it; I can see why there's a disclaimer that it goes fast. There was an indoor go-kart track that my son also loved riding the little go-karts on; it went around the playscape. There were large Legos, blocks, a ball pit, a mini donut shop, ride on toy cars, and grocery store. We spent an hour and a half there and my son still didn't want to leave. My other son is a crawler, he still enjoyed the toys at the mini stores and the ride on cars. Overall it was 5 stars for my children and I; we look forward to going back and highly recommend it for kids 10 and under.

Is this place a bargain-- no. Is this place pretty awesome if your child loves dinosaurs-- yes!…read moreThis spot is about an hour away from me, but it's worth the drive to spend an afternoon here. I thought all the dinosaurs were super impressive and love how they setup the whole walking trail. There is a ton of shade, so even if you go when it's super hot you'll be fine! I appreciate all the ferns that they planted around, makes it feel "authentic" with all the dinos. For my dino obsessed five year old he loved seeing all the variety of dinosaurs and even some more obscure ones that he knew and you never see at spots like this. They did a great job of putting some dinosaurs into "scenes" and simply showcasing others with facts and more info. My son isn't into splash pads, but that splash pad looked like a ton of fun. The climbing area was also huge and looked like fun. My five year old stuck to walking around and going through the maze 15 times. The maze is simple, but fun and a nice addition to the park. What I like about this park is it's great for kids of all ages! Probably from at least 3-10 and even older if your child is super into dinosaurs or you are an adult who loves dinos!

Needing to get the kids out of the house or a feeling nostalgic for a game of mini golf? Monster…read moreMini Golf will take care of that itch for you! Don't be confused by the address it is on the backside of the building, just follow the arrows around and there was a good amount of parking there on a mid day afternoon. While the course and games may be a little dated, it is still a fun experience and way to spend a few hours out of the house. Arcade has ticket and non ticket game for prizes at the counter pre or post game if you choose to partake. Not overly scary for little ones, there are a few of the props that do move. They even have two party rooms that you can reserve if you need to host an event with this theme in mind. Enjoy!

I can't give it more. I wish I could and this place has really great potential but management needs…read morehelp. I went for a bday party. The room was fine. The set up was cool. It's typical set up. So what you'll get at other facilities, you'll get here. The facility is AMAZING!!! There is so many things to crawl through, run around, stairs and slides, basketball courts to have little games. Two personal size trampolines that's one jumper at a time. That can be an issue if they don't have a timer for it and the line gets long. I didn't see a long line because the kids would leave and play around the whole facility. They had a small gaming room that I did t check out but I can only assume it's like other arcade spots. Only a bit smaller section. They had this one area that you can be on the second floor and launch balls down to the ground floor with a bit of force to make it fun and give you the illusion that you have a powerful gun. You can throw those balls around and hit each other, they were soft. In the middle of that room there's an apparatus that blows air up and makes these balls float and come out of the top of a 4 foot tube. Again, it's cool for 2-7 year olds. Maybe even 8-9 Yr olds would have fun in this room. This place is really big. You can't keep an eye out on your child. That's how many tunnels they are and how fast the kids can come through there that you'll lose your eyes on them. If you're the parent that needs to keep an eye on your child 100% of the tiMe, get socks and join in on the fun with them cause from the ground you will not be able to do it. They have a toddler section. A small version that they can easily have fun there too. NOW.... As for the 3 stars... I couldn't give more but if they fix this one section or gap in their business this place can be a 4.5 to 5 star facility. The tops of the slides: DUSTY. Needs a cleaning. And WEEKLY too! NOT monthly. The staffing!! The staff was very very short. The line at the concession stand was too long and the wait was insane, especially for a place that was starting to get full. I went on a Saturday around 11am... that's PRIME! TIME!! That's when you would have a FULL STAFF! Two staff at the concession stand, two staff setting up the party rooms, two in the front, two roaming the play area. .... That's just for the weekend staffing. Weekday, knock it down to ONE or less in all the areas that I listed. But it gets better and this is the ending. As we were in the front. One of the staff that was there happen to have a relative that she hasn't seen in a long time. I know this by her reaction and by what she said and how her convo went. She said, "when did you get in motherfu&!3r?!" Loud and clear. My wife said that shortly after she said, "my bad for my language".... Umm too late sweet pea. Thank God my son didn't hear that. I would have been upset if I had to explain to him that's not a word you use. So that was our intro to this place. Not a good start. Would I return? Yes and I'll bring in my own snacks to avoid waiting 10 min for a bottle of water or drinks. And put ear muffs on my children. That's all folks.

This was by far the worst experience I've ever had with any staff. Unfortunately they were short…read morestaffed only had three people working. The manager was very very rude and unprofessional. I was "supposedly" allowed to arrive 15 min early to set up they wouldn't let us in the room until exactly 11. I was given attitude from the manager when I was asking simply questions and was told, "trust us we've been working hard all week for this." I don't know what that consisted of the room wasn't set up, I didn't have enough plates or utensils. The party attendant was no where to be found and non existent. One of the moms was trying to help me out and was yelled at by an employee. I will say the only helpful and apologetic employee there was Esmael (probably spelled that wrong). He had patience with us and answered all my questions. But unfortunately he was also running two other parties at the same time. When I originally booked and spoke to someone the person advised me I could just pay for the other additional children at the same party rate. Well apparently that's not how that works. Any additional adult and child is regular admission fee which gets to be very expensive very quickly. I paid $700 and this was more of a headache. And I received very little help at all. The manager just tried to argue with me (when in fact I didn't intend on arguing) and I shut it down telling her it didn't matter that I was still paying. Another thing is the cleanliness. The playscape I can understand that probably is difficult to clean. But the floor in party room was very sticky. The women's bathroom had a toilet constantly flushing which didn't allow any other toilet to flush. There was no toilet paper in the stalls. We were there when it opened, how were the bathrooms not cleaned from the prior day? Also the hand sanitizer stations were empty. All in all if you're looking to book a party just don't. Save yourself the torture and aggravation. For the amount of money I paid I expect at least some help and some courtesy and respect as a customer. I didn't expect to have the red carpet rolled out. Just treat us with kindness is all I ask for.

When we arrived, there was already a line but we were able to get in for the first round of golf. Like others have said, it's pretty small in there but Lots of things to look at and the monsters were pretty cool looking but not in a super scary way. Each of the holes had different levels of difficulty but overall pretty easy. The arcade was very tiny, but had some fun games for the Littles. None of them were broken like other reviews have said. They games do not accept quarters you have to buy a card. The staff was very friendly and helpful and had tons of patience especially the person working the token redemption/prize area. By the time we left, the place was pretty packed so it's probably a good idea to get there right when they open. Playing one round of golf plus $10 in video games lasted about an hour and a half. Plenty of parking in the private lot. There is a small table out front.

We bought our tickets online and in advance, we did our waivers and etc etc. We did something like this before elsewhere so we aren't new, we knew we needed gloves and what attire ( sneakers and something cozy nothing too tight or short). We got there for our designated time and were greeted by a man named Clay, he warned us there was a bunch of students that would be there for the next 2 hours, the same slot my mom and I were supposed to go. He said we could climb if we wanted or come back anytime we wanted that day or another day, we chose to go down the road to shop and come back and I'm so glad we did because we got to have the place practically to ourselves, thanks for the heads up Clay! Okay so we come back, this place is huge! Climbing, zip lining and tons of courses and levels. Even a kids area for the little ones, so cute. I want to name a few people who we worked with for the day who were an absolute delight and they need praise. Here are the names: Shawn who checked us in. Tucker who briefed us and gave us the rules and Ryan who was very kind and told us some stuff in regards to which course we wanted to do next ( because we practically did them all). The staff here are delightful and kind. And Ryan even helped a child who was stuck and needed help, he sprung into immediate action and was quick no second thought. Made me feel safe as an adult, so I know that child felt safe, GREAT JOB! I think the intensity of this place is great for all levels and there was enough zip lines for the amount of exercise you do. It was a nice view and the staff made it more fun. The music was good, which I enjoyed as well. I have nothing negative to say here. They have a huge parking lot, and it looks like they do night courses and ax throwing soon, I believe. So glad I booked this, we had a blast. Kudos to you all!

We ended up calling corporate where they told us Sunday nights would now be the new half price game day. So we went in on a Sunday and the board only specified Sunday sip Night, not the half price gaming that somebody over the phone told us. The miscommunication and lack of knowledge of this leads me to believe there is discrepancies in training. I asked the server if this was the new game night. She said yes. I also asked a manager and they said that the game nights changed the Sunday. All of the games were still full price on Sunday night at 9:15. We talked to somebody that was in charge of the games and they said the server was possibly not switched over because this was something new. The three different staff members that I talked to all looked at me like I had no idea what I was saying.
