Very unique room.
Unique wall of wonder.
So cool

We needed something to do while visiting my aunt and this did not disappoint. We solved 2 of the 3 puzzles. My teenage boys were very entertained. It was clean and didn't feel too crowded. A good value for the fun!

A cool interactive art museum in Ohio. Near Reynoldsburg this is a bit of a drive for anyone staying in Columbus but worth the visit. At $31 it was a little steep for something that didn't take me more than an hour to go through and we went at quite a busy time with a lot of other people. I definitely enjoyed the rooms that were more enclosed which felt more immersive. I've been to a handful of interactive immersive museums and this fits the vibe. I think something that takes away from the experience is being able to see the exit signs or the ceilings. The other ones I've been to in Tokyo and Barcelona are much more immersive. Art is subjective but some of the rooms felt like an art kids installation project. It's great that this is kid friendly but unfortunately kinda took away from my own experience. It just felt really crowded.I appreciate all the time and energy that went into each room and it was an unique, fun experience.

We were in town for a concert and looking for something to do before heading home, and I kept getting ads for this so we decided to check it out. Well worth the hour or so we spent here.As many reviewers have commented, an "interactive art experience" is probably the best way to describe it. Every room is a little different with some hidden passageways connected rooms in neat ways.It's touted as family friendly, but the whole thing gave me Stranger Things vibes, so I don't imagine that *my* kids would have enjoyed this at all -- some of the rooms are dark (these can be avoided) but there's still an inherent creepiness to almost all of the rooms. Not that this is a bad thing, just something to know beforehand - it's all Otherworldly for sure, but sometimes in a cute way and sometimes in a creepy way. Just know what you're getting into.It was a slow evening when we went in the middle of the week, so we moved through things pretty easily and didn't really see too many other people - maybe every 3 or 4 rooms we'd bump into someone else, but we mostly explored alone. The puzzles weren't too appealing to us, but maybe we've missed it.Overall I thought this was a great deal for only $30 per ticket. Plenty to do for the price.

This was my second time here but the kids (11 and 13) 1st time. We all had fun. So many interesting and interactive exhibits. Took us about 2 hours to go through everything. We didn't do the additional puzzle part which probably would take longer. Parking is easy as there is a huge parking lot and the other businesses around it are closed. Some of the rooms were different from when I went the first time a few years ago. The kids want to go back again.

Otherworld was more than just a museum, but the best experience ever. I was impressed by the photos I saw online but I was completely blown away when when I finally got to experience it! It's perfect for both children, older kids, and adults.Hands down one of the best experiences I've ever had!!

Otherworld is an art experience, some of which are interactive puzzles. It's part photo op, part art museum, part funhouse. I would say it's for "all-ages" but I think teenagers/young adults would get the most enjoyment out of it, and be able to follow contextual clues hidden in the experience.We have been to the Philadelphia location, which has a lot of similarities to this one (the funeral section, the office, the basement, etc). So while we spent each $30 on tickets, we did about an hour here - not the fault of the talented designers, but more to see what is different and what is unique from the other version. If it's your first time, or if you want to read every piece of lore, it could take up to 2-3 hours to do everything.I do think there's something that could improve the experience. A map, a physical thing to carry around and check things off (even if areas are unfinished or marked with a "???" to not spoil a surprise) would be nice to see. I ended up taking a picture of the fire exit map to help with navigating and make sure we didn't skip anything, which I recommend until they have a real map to hand out for everyone.Overall, it's a unique experience and worth your time to check out.

This place is otherworldly.Sometimes things are better left unsaid and Otherworld is just that. If I talked about my experience here, it would spoil just how awesome and wild this place is. All I will say is that this place is big, it has many rooms, and no two rooms are alike.If you are curious about Otherworld and have no plans to ever visit, check out some videos on YouTube or something. But if you think you'll go, do yourself a service by going in blind. At $30 a ticket, it's well worth your time if you enjoy a visual and interactive trip.

Otherworld is this fun interactive art exhibit, with plenty of lights and cool sculptures. They have little tunnels that go into different rooms, swings, interactive walls, etc. The price is pretty decent, it isn't inexpensive but won't burn a hole through your pockets either. The workers there are fine, they did a good job explaining things and they keep the place clean. It was a great experience for the kids but not something I'd make an effort to go back to. The exhibits do make for amazing pictures but idk I guess I was expecting more. From the pictures online it seemed much larger and like there were tons of lights, in reality it's a medium sized place with decent exhibits.

This place is trippy. We were visiting Columbus for a comic con and heard from locals that this is a big tourist spot. We were a little skeptical because it is in the middle in an abandoned shopping center. Seriously, this was the only thing that was opened.The inside was amazing. There were so many things to look at. This museum is very interactive. If there is one thing to do in Columbus, go here!
