    At wonder-works Destiny shopping mall I did only one of the many things they have there. For 20.00 I went on the roads and climbing exhibit. I was harnessed and once comfortable I was able to go on the various ladders and such. I was told that there alway was a staff member there, just in case. 30 to 40 minutes for me was plenty of time and it was easy to find the red arrow exit signs to get back . It was a nice thing to do besides shopping.

    More out of orde

    So many things were out of order. Can't believe we spend over $100 for a family of four on this. What a rip off!!! Edit: The girl at the ropes course was NASTY!!! So rude.

    Kids can 'try on' a space suit.

    I took my 8year old daughter & we had a great time. The whole thing took about 2&1/2hours to go through, stopping to enjoy everything we could/wanted to. There were a few things out of order, but it was mostly working and fun. We got VIP tickets (at a discount off of Groupon, which you have to buy over 24hours before you go), so we were able to go on the Canopy Climb. This is a ropes course that hangs over multiple levels of the atrium in Destiny USA. You're securely fastened with a full body harness to the steel structure, but it's still quite a queasy task! The best part for us was that once you step out onto the first platform, you have the option to take one more aerial walk to flat ground again. But at least you can say that you tried it! I definitely recommend this place for kids from ages of about 6-12.

    Described as "an amusement park for the mind", Wonderworks is an attraction with 100+ hands-on science exhibits plus laser tag, a ropes course & a 6D motion ride. Wonderworks offers interactive, educational fun for all ages. Visitors are offered a variety of experiences, including being blown away by 84 MPH hurricane-force winds, maneuvering the controls of a NASA spacecraft to land the shuttle, lying on a bed of 3,500 nails, and piloting a fighter jet. While it seems as if its just for kids, there's plenty for adults who still consider themselves kids at heart to enjoy, so a Yelp Elite event definitely peaked my interest, and I decided to attend. The event took place on a Wednesday night and other than our group, it seemed pretty empty, which I'm sure had to do with it being the middle of the week. While most of the Yelpers went for laser tag, myself and my small group decided to hit up the Wonderzones and check everything else out. Some of the exhibits were very fun, like the bubble lab, giant Connect-4 game, and old school carnival basketball game. This part of Wonderworks very much reminded me of the MOST Museum, with little interactive science related exhibits, which I loved as a kid, so I thoroughly enjoyed. There were a few exhibits where employees had to attend with you, and all employees were very friendly and seemed to enjoy their jobs. Fun looking exhibits such as the Xtreme 360 Bikes and Gyroscope unfortunately couldn't accomodate a man of my size (over 250 lbs), so I can't comment on them. I really wanted to check out the 4D Motion Theatre, but there just wasn't enough time before food arrived. All in all, it was a fun little event, but as an adult, I don't see it as something I would go to repeatedly. While its fun the first time, I don't see it as something I would enjoy more than once, but I could see it being a fun place to visit multiple times to a family with children.

    Fun place for adults and kids.

    Sunday of Winter Break, they only had one poor girl working the front desk. She did great, but had no help at all.

    Our family had a riot at this place. The 4d shows are great and are one of many fantastic attractions.

    Our Vrbo is right across the street from this amusement park. And luckily it opened the weekend we…read moreare staying here. Opening night was Saturday. We rounded up our adult children and made them come with us to check out the park. To be honest, this amusement park is far from it's prime. I'm sure back in the day when it first opened, it probably was so much more exciting and fun. The amusement park looks really run down. Some of the game stands were looking pretty sad. There were a lot of arcade type spots, some were nice and some needed some tlc. There were a few of the rides that were open and operating. Some were still down. The roller-coaster gives you some butterflies while riding it but it's still very tiny. It's about 8 bucks for a very fast ride. So, you're really paying for the core memory of the ride and not the ride itself. I can see this joint being fun for kids and teens. They don't know any better. The bright lights and arcade games is exciting for them. For my older kids who are in their early 20's, we were able to distract them with a few games for some tickets but the interest didn't last long. For a smaller amusement park, it does it's job. It would be a fun date night just to walk the beach, share a fry bread and ride the roller coaster. I'm happy I got to check it out with my little family tonight. It wasn't the most exciting but we got to share time and create some memories together hanging out at the amusement park tonight.

    Looking for a time warp back to the 1960's? Sylvan Beach amusement park is for you. Looking for a…read moremodern, high-tech, well-kept spot? Move along as this isn't it. Thankfully for me and many others, the retro vibes are what we want and this place has it in spades! The roller coaster looks old and ready to buckle, but hey what's life without a little risk? The main arcade has skee-ball that is so old, there are no 100 pockets in the corners! I love it! Several games in the arcade are not working correctly, the staff knows it, but they are super friendly in spite of that. But the real reason to come to this amusement park is.... FASCINATION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sylvan Beach is one of only five or six amusement parks left in the United States that still offer this PERFECT game which combines bingo, roll-a-ball derby, and skee-ball. Go watch a Youtube video or two on Fascination Bingo and you'll be as hooked as I am. Be the first to light up five slots in a row on your grid and win redemption tickets and bragging rights! They offer bonus tickets if you light a harder line (like the center row or the back row), or if you get a double or even triple bingo. There's room for 40 players, but half of the lanes don't work as these were constructed back in the early 1900s and are close to 100 years old - so if you don't snag a lane, watch a few rounds and jump onto one when someone gets up! 50 cents per game, can you beat the price? No, you can't. The two young ladies who operate the Fascination parlor are sassy and sweet, engaging to all guests young and old, roast you beautifully if your ball gets stuck, and genuinely love their job. Bring hydration to the Fascination Parlor - there is no air conditioning and you'll be jumping and celebrating your wins - it's a hot-yoga-esque workout! Sylvan Beach has a cute snack bar with reasonably priced food and ice cream, old-school midway games, an air-gun target shooting gallery, three arcades in total, bumper cars, bumper boats, and other fun things, but Fascination is why you want to go there, so enjoy it - I'll cry when this place closes and maybe I'll buy the lanes and open up my own parlor!
