Chorise was amazing, high energy and fostered an unforgettable game for the family. Will definitely be coming back to try the other games. The giant pencil was the best souvenir to come home with! Would definitely recommend for a party at the mall.

🏆 Family Action Verdict

Best for families with school-age kids and teens who want high-energy group entertainment. The one-hour format moves fast and hosts consistently keep every player involved — losing team included. Groups of four play just as well as groups of eight. Pairs well with a day at American Dream Mall for a full outing.

Such a cool experience!! Maybe one of my favorite things ever! Quinn made us feel as if we were actually on TV! I ended up on the losing team, but loved every second of it!

This was an unexpectedly great time! Even though our group was small (4), Jay kept us engaged with good energy. I don’t feel like the time went too quickly either. I’d say an hour was more than enough to feel we got our moneys worth. I want to come back with more friends or even a work team building would be so cool!!! Highly recommend while you’re at American Dream!!

This was the first time my group went and this won’t be our last time. This was such a great experience to have with your friends and family! Our host, Quinn, really delivered and was really fantastic at keeping everyone involved in the games! Definitely worth it and can’t wait for the next time we go again!
