I took my husband here for his birthday and it was a BLAST. If you like escape rooms then imagine an escape room x 30... but with more challenges. The host explained the rules perfectly and each room was filled with excitement. From a low amount of physical to mystery riddles, we had a blast and will definitely be back..maybe even with some friends!!

My friend and I stopped by for drinks and fun, we had an amazing time! They have self-pour wall out a fridge with different drink options. We came during the week, so it wasn't too busy, which made for a relaxed and enjoyable experience. The highlight of the night was playing The Grid. It has a variety of mini-challenges that vary in points and skills. Honestly, 30 minutes wasn't enough--we could've played for much longer! This is a fantastic spot for some interactive fun.

Needed something to do that my family of 5 can ALL enjoy. We did both game room and laser tag. We enjoyed every minute! The rooms were challenging and different. I assumed they'd get boring but not so. Everyone got to utilize their skills. Last tag was awesome! We did an open play so our opponents were strangers. The host on our side was very energetic. Staff were friendly and patient. Laser tag sends email of results if you created a profile. Reviews state unexplained rooms. All rooms had instructions on back of door and the brief was informative if you paid attention Overall 10/10. Worth price. Super clean. Neat esthetic

I really like this place! I brought staff here for Teambuilding, and they loved it!We checked in, got a locker to store our things and off we went! Games were fun and challenging from mind games to physical activities. We were told for a group of 4 never played before the average score is 120 points. We scored 250 points! Yeah!Afterwards we copped some pizza and tried the self pours. C's pizza was the fav by all. Tips: wear closed toed comfortable shoes, no fancy jewelry around your wrists, small bags that can fit in their lockers, remember to play 1st before partaking in their drinks. I took off a star for two reasons: a couple of the games were stuck and needed to be reset and bathrooms not being clean. (I know the theme is for them to look dirty, but you can tell what was fake and what was actually dirty)

Omg this was the best time! I went with my bf and two of our friends. Now, I've been to District 57 a couple of times before but only to chill and play their video games. I've always wanted to try their actual game rooms/challenge rooms.I always assumed they were similar to escape rooms, but they really aren't. So, we went through the intro video and explanation process that helps. After that you're set free to choose whichever room you want to start in. You go from room to room trying to complete each individual challenge. The catch is that you only have a certain amount of time to figure out the object of the room and then complete it correctly. LOL, this is where the fun begins.We had such a good time!!! We laughed a lot and failed a lot! I highly recommend these activities for a group of friends, super fun date night or even a family outing. We all can't stop talking about it and how much fun it was. Seriously can't wait to go back!!!

I went in with no idea what we were stepping into. My expectations were EXCEEDED. I loved how you walked into something new with every room. The varied in difficulty levels and mental/physical challenges. I loved every second. Definitely recommend paying for 90 minutes.

I noticed this place a long time ago, and always wanted to go. My fiance and I have a book that inspires dates and one was an arcade date. District 57 wasn't really in line with what they intended for the date, but when searching, we looked at the website again and decided we had to go here. We did 90 minutes in the Grid and it was a blast! It's unlike any type of game place we have ever been before. It had a great mix of games that challenged both our minds and our bodies. We finished wishing we had even more time, and will definitely be back to conquer some of the rooms. Some of them are very challenging and you find strategy as you go on. You can always re enter the same room later to try again. For some, we just ran out of time, but are already planning our strategy for the next trip. I will say, you can go with just 2 people, but many of the games are much harder with only 2. To be the most successful at the most games, I'd recommend 3-4 people. We'd definitely still go back with just the two of us though. Let me also add that the price per person for 90 minutes in the Grid is more than reasonable, in my opinion. After the Grid, we had soft pretzels and some beers from the self pour station, and played some of the table top games. We then finished the night playing some of the arcade games that they have. To add, this was such a neat place! It's so unique in so many ways, both with its decor and with its concept. We both said this is going to become a regular place for us. Lastly, the staff was very helpful, especially the last guy we dealt with who helped us with an arcade game that was giving us troubles, and then took a picture of the two of us so we could put it into our date book. Thanks so much to the Grid for an amazing experience and very memorable date night!

I can give them 5/5 stars but from my perspective, a non-brain game person, it was a great experience but no thank you. With a group, you are more likely to successfully complete the room challenges. The set-up is excellent and the staff is excellent. Christian assisted us throughout and actually made the experience more pleasant. I take it that the top performers have visited multiple times to take the lead on the all-time board. For current players, we came in second place which was surprising as we failed most of our rooms. My personal recommendation, designate a detailed person to read the instructions in each room. Everyone else must listen and then apply. This will get you off to a great start in solving the mystery of the room.

This was so much fun! The guy behind the counter was a little "aggressive" for my liking but it was hopefully just his vibe(character) I think. I loved the games in the lobby. Do the 90 min for sure anything less doesn't seem like you could visit all rooms and it seemed that a group of 4 is the perfect number. We went for a date and just 2 of us so some of the challenges were just not obtainable. Some of the challenges didn't give quite enough instructions. All in all it was a lot of fun. Wish there would have been a 120 min option since we were just two.

I've been here twice- once for work- related team building and once for a date night. I had a great time on both occasions. There are tons of what I would call puzzle rooms where you have to successfully complete a task to get points. Unlike an escape room (which I don't care for), you're not locked in. Either you solve the room or you don't; you can come back to try again later or just move to a different room. Even though I've been twice, I'm nowhere near completing all of the rooms. In the game area is fantastic. The area outside the game space could use a bit more excitement.
