With its fast pace, interactive games, high tech and challenging tasks, Activate was an all-time favorite among our group. It’s not surprising that visitors keep returning to play the games again and again.

We arrived at Activate and checked in. We were each given an electronic wristband which kept score for us during our visit (each time visitors return they can access their previous scores from the electronic system and continue earning points.) The interactive technology in each room reacts in real time keeping score of your successes.

Activate has a variety of rooms with designated challenges. Each room has a particular task or challenge for the players to work on in a short amount of time (up to 5 people can participate in a room at once). Once choosing the room to experience, each player scans their wristband. After reading the directions for the particular challenge of the room the group chooses the level of difficulty and skill (each room has 10 levels to choose from). When it is time to start the challenge the group is given 1-3 minutes to complete the high-tech game as a group together. The 45-minute time slots offer players a chance to try a variety of rooms or replay the same again. Playing the games as a group at Activate requires working together and fosters cooperation and teamwork.

The rooms offer high tech games using numbers, colors, patterns, marksmanship and brawn. The short time slots allotted for each game and the fast pace keeps adrenaline pumping and excitement pulsing as players move from room to room and then on to higher levels of the challenges already completed.

It’s hard to completely grasp what makes activate so much fun-trust me on this one and try it and find out.
