STEPH JUDGEMENT: Everything one loves about a Meow Wolf experience…read more I was excited to check out another Meow Wolf after my first experience with the one in Vegas. While the utter surprise factor wasn't there that I got with my first time, some familiarity with the concept might have actually made me more attentive to what was going on. All the Meow Wolfs are different, and the idea behind Denver's is that you're at some kind of an intergalactic space station and you're visiting another planet. You start off in a "downtown" sort of area, with shops and restaurants that feel familiar at first glance, but then you start to notice the strange writing and other things that are slightly off. From there, as your explorations take you deeper into the complex, things start to get really weird and fantastical. I won't talk any more about the details; the fun is in your own discovery. The most amazing thing to me about Meow Wolfs is all the handcrafted artistry that goes into the exhibitions. It started out as a scrappy, DIY-esque art project, and I was glad to see that some of that original spirit still shone through. It's a diverting way to while away 3-4 hours. They also do have a cafe (which I didn't try) and a large gift store with all kinds of fun items.

Cool space to check out with friends!…read more There are so many different rooms, things to look at and places to explore in this expansive museum. Every direction you look is something new to see! The whole place took my friends and I about 2 hours to explore. Tickets were about $50/person and parking was $15 in the lot across the street. They have a small cafe and gift shop where you can purchase drinks. Inside the immersive museum there is also a spot where you can try out themed drinks as well! The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful in guiding us upon entry and when we purchased our tickets.

Loved it! We spent about an hour there. It is better if you go with someone because some of the…read morephoto ops require two people. There are many employees around to explain what you are looking at, and help you get the best picture. There is a small gift shop also.

Our daughter is 31 years old so perhaps we were a little above the targeted demographics but we had a nice time. The exhibits were interesting and many photo opportunities that presented interesting illusions. The staff were amazingly friendly and helpful, guiding guests through each activity, helping to explain the setup, and even taking our photos. It was the Friday afternoon after Thanksgiving so the building was somewhat crowded with families but we never had to wait more then a few minutes before accessing one of the exhibits. Highly recommend MOI to families with preteen and younger children. It may even be enjoyable for a young couple on a date night. We were able to finish all of the exhibits in 30 minutes, we thought there may be a second floor but after walking through the space a second time we realized that was it. Fun but the ticket price and cost for parking may be a bit steep for some.

What a fun and unique date night experience!…read more My girlfriend and I received a gift card to Upstairs Circus and chose to celebrate Valentine's Day crafting to our heart content. This place was a dream!! Now, I'm an experienced crafter myself, while my girlfriend is not so much, but I'm happy to say both of us were able to enjoy it. The options are a wide variety including activities for all skill levels, and the instructions are very straightforward. The bar menu was also plentiful, with a variety of signature cocktails, some limited wine selections, and even some holiday-inspired shots! I also felt like the staff all took great care of us, making sure we had a memorable experience. They continued checking on us whether to help with our crafts or to fill up our glasses, were kind and attentive. This was such a special experience!

What a cute space to hang out with cats for anyone who wants a cat but can't have one, if you just…read morewant cat cuddles, if you want to see what having a cat is like because you're a dog mom, etc. The cost of entrance has gone up. I think it was $15 per adult but we were here for over 2 hours so we got our money worth. Hopefully the entrance fees help with taking care of the cats. The cats are available for adoption and many of them were pending which is great to see. Staff is friendly and they know the cats very well. The place is kept clean. The cats kinda do whatever they want. As a mom to a very spoiled and yappy dog who needs my attention at all times, having a cat seems a lot less maintenance. They're generally very quiet. They know their boundaries and they don't pee at every corner. We played with lots of cute cats but there was one (Shirley) who woke up from a nap and jumped into my lap where it napped for half an hour. It was so cute. If my dog liked cats and Shirley wasn't already pending, I was so close to pay the fee for her.

It becomes awkward, because everyone is wanting that one cat. 2 stars because the cats are soooo cute. But there should be no walk ins allowed on the weekend, and just reservation, 10 people every 30 minutes. Cause I'm extremely disappointed of how this went! They do have some board games and drinks to get which is cool. But most likely during the week would be best to visit!

First, it's not quite what you think - nothing is sold and nothing is used there. I wouldn't say it's exactly family friendly for every family but there were little kids there. We started with the meditation/laser show. The room, once the church sanctuary, is painted in the brightest colors imaginable. It's absolute eye candy. You sit (or lay) on church pews that are full of squishy pillows. The lights dim, the meditation starts and the lasers illuminate various parts of the room. Even with the rock music, it really was mellow and relaxing. I don't know if you're permitted to sit through it more than once but I know that I would have liked too. While the laser show and "brightness" may be the main draw, the arcade was the most fun for us. Everything is included, no quarters needed. I played ski-ball until my arm was tired. While my husband played Galaga, I was drawn to the lite-brite. Simple? Yes but I wasn't allowed to have one when I was little and this was an absolute thrill for me. We then went into another room where we played Mario Cart - the game was projected onto an entire wall. There were board games, more arcade games, crayons and markers...everything needed to unleash your inner child - my husband and I spent the entire afternoon doing just that. We're back home now. I'm looking at the clock thinking about what to make for dinner. You know what? Heck with it - I'm going to go color instead...

Overall: Fun and unique activity. Would not recommend for large groups of adults - see details…read morebelow. Games chosen for three people: Alien and Ghostbusters. Personally enjoyed the Alien one more as I felt the Ghostbusters one was repetitive in some parts. Experience: Instructions are clear. Good pacing and very engaging. Space: Space is good for two. Was running into each other with three people. I feel like it would be too crowded with 4+ people on certain game activities. It kinda got stuffy in the room after 30 minutes, so it would be nice if there were bigger fans on the ceiling, ventilating the air more. Drinks: Pricey. Basic alcoholic and non alcoholic option. Nothing super exciting. There's a drink holder shelf in the game rooms. Extra note: Cancellation policy is very stringent. We added two friends to our reservation on the day of the reservation and a few hours later, they couldn't make it due to a sudden medical reason. Even though these changes all happened on the day of, they would not make any exception. Only offered the option of rescheduling them in the future by emailing the manager. Keep that in mind when you make a reservation.

The room walks you through all the steps and you put on your hat, which is what controls you through the game. We played for about an hour and it was plenty of time. One of our games required a bunch of squats so I was definitely sore the next day. There are drinks for sale however it's also in a plaza with a bunch of restaurants if you wanted to catch up after. Pricewise I thought it was a little expensive, but it was worth it. Also, I definitely recommend keeping the rooms to max four people.

It's a fun way to spend 90 minutes to 120 minutes based on your fascination level and how many people are with you to indulge. For about $50 to 60 a person if I recall, you can go nuts doing selfies within a number of themed sets and installed art stages. There are selfie tripods set up for each set with the adequate lighting to take shots of yourself to show off to your friends, fuel your vanity, and just have a bit of amusement and fun. Each of the sets and art installations are different theme-wise such as the bathtub and dressing room sets, the psychedelic landscapes with Jim Henson-like plush animals, surreal backgrounds, gym-like settings with punching bags, food-centric backdrops, fake advertising murals, and more. You have to love taking selfies to spend the money for a couple of hours. Additionally, they have an escape room if you have some friends who may be inclined and get selfied out.

I liked the integration of moving shapes along with animal, Prince and clubbing caricatures. Very family friendly. The show run time was 50 min. The only downside was the seating. Try and sit as much to the back of the auditorium if at all possible. We ended up front and had to strain our neck to view the entire wall
