Even being on a losing team our of the group, the competitiveness was there and would definitely hire this group again.

It was a staff retreat with about 175 people and we needed a way to get everyone organized and hyped. Colin was extremely professional and thorough during our initial emails, explaining the packages and price breakdowns, and a final phone call sealed the deal. The day of our event, Colin got everyone organized into teams and hyped up for bowling. We would step away to check in periodically, and he was always calm, confident, and flexible. Cheers, yells, and laughter were the loudest thing in the room. He took care of everything and staff had a blast.

I called them up & the very next moment Dan emailed me on how this thing works. Dan was very prompt in responding to my queries & in no time he came up with scavenger hunt in Redwood city. There are tons of locations to chose for you & Dan designs hunt in that location. Clues are combination of AR + paper based. Very technologically impressive! We all loved the hunt & i would do it again & recommend to everyone. + points: 1. Generally this is designed for corporate events but Dan designed for a small group like mine & i would say it was reasonable for such an out of the box idea. Dan

Kaz, the instructor, is passionate about the art of sushi and so willing to teach and share what he knows, with kindness. Thanks Kaz for the amazing time! He has 1 assistant help him and he was so attentive watching us make our rolls and giving tips for how to do it. Appreciate the attention, that's how you learn. If you've ever wondered about how to make or just love eating sushi (that's me!) then this is a fantastic opportunity. you get to practice a lot and take home rolls with you to share with family/friends or eat all of it yourself if you really want to!

Very concerning experience…read more (Understandable) We visited Palace Games recently and were instructed by staff to place all personal belongings in a designated basket area before entering the game. The basket was located outside of the game room and remained out of our sight for the entire duration (~2 hours). (Incident) After the game, we discovered that a wallet valued at $1000+ (including cash and multiple cards such as ID and credit cards) was missing. Based on the noticeable weight difference before and after, we were able to reasonably determine that the item went missing during the game time. (Their Action) We requested assistance immediately and asked to review surveillance footage. Initially, we were told that the footage would need to be "retrieved through a third-party vendor" and that we would be contacted later -- however, no one followed up. The following day, after multiple attempts to reach them, we were informed that the "vendor was unavailable (PTO) "and the footage could not be accessed at this point. Later, a manager called and stated that there is no recording at all (⁉), only live monitoring on site. When we asked for confirmation of this and whether we could document the conversation, the call was abruptly ended Subsequent attempts to follow up have gone unanswered. Additionally, on the game day, we felt rushed to leave immediately after the game ended, even though our scheduled end time was 4:00 PM and it was only around 3:45 PM at that point. This made it more difficult to properly check our belongings around the game area. We followed all instructions provided by staff, yet there appears to be no secure storage, no accessible review process, and no clear accountability when something goes wrong. Their responses were inconsistent and changed over time. the incident has NOT yet been addressed at this point. We are sharing this experience for transparency regarding how personal belongings are handled and how incidents are addressed. Update: The owner has reached out to us, apologized, and showed us the available surveillance footage. The footage only covers the lobby and hallway areas and does not include the room where personal belongings are placed, so it was not possible to determine what happened. We appreciate the follow-up and the owner's sincere attitude. However, this situation highlights that the designated storage area for customer belongings currently has no surveillance coverage or secure storage. We hope additional measures (such as lockers or better monitoring) can be implemented in the future to prevent similar incidents. While we acknowledge their efforts to address the situation, we are keeping our original rating to reflect our experience.
