Jaiden was our host and he was wonderful! We visited here as a team building work exercise and had fun with a large team of about 18 of us. The games were engaging and appealed to all the various personalities on our team. From trivia, to mystery to counting, they had several interesting games! This was a fun team outing and felt pretty close to being on an actual game show! read more

I wasn't totally clear on what to expect with this place. I knew it had something to do with "game shows" - as the name implies. So I kept an open mind and went with some coworkers. We had a blast. You're basically led through several game show style games/activities. Some are hands on, some are brain teasers, others are pure luck. You participate in a private game room and all the scoring is automated so you just follow the prompts from your host. I would gladly go back. This is fun for a wide range of ages/interests. It was a great team building experience and we still reference it fondly months later. read more

We visited Great Big Game Show The Colony this past weekend. It was one of several girls trip activities. I was not sure what to except, but we all had an absolute blast! Our host, Jaiden did a phenomenal job! He was fun, full of energy and kept the crowd excited! The friendly competition among friends was hilarious! I highly recommend this activity for team building, birthday celebrations, date nights or just high-energy fun! read more

We want as a large family, and had a lot of fun. The kids in our group included a three year old as the youngest, and 13 year old as the oldest. Although we all had a great time, I would say this experience is best for kids over 7. Any younger, and it might be too difficult to answer trivia questions and to understand the games we were playing. Overall, all of us really enjoyed it and would happily go again. Our host, Aiden, did a fantastic job of being lively and keeping the game light and fun. Can't wait to go again! read more

The Great Big Game Show was such a fun group experience! The one thing I will say it is pricey and if you don't have a bigger group to go with it might not be as fun. Also, you are paired with strangers- unless you pay a huge premium to have a private party. But aside from that I really enjoyed my time and loved the competitiveness. This would be so fun for a corporate team building activity. Our host was super funny and made the time a lot of fun. I wish the mini games were longer but they were super fun. From trivia to spinning the wheel to building up blocks- you'll just have to experience it yourself! I would definitely go back if I was invited! read more

The only suggestion I would give is to book a room with a group of 12 people. Our group of 9 got placed with a father and his 2 children (whom we didn't know), which ruined the dynamic of the room a little bit. Otherwise, the whole experience was fun and took an hour to complete. Cooper was a great host, and I regret not making him squirm when he asked each contestant a "get to know you question". We played a total of 8 games, which consisted of 3 separate trivia games, a Plinko style game, a block stacking game, a wheel spinning game, a mental timing game, and a nerf gun shooting game. I liked how just enough strategy mixed with luck were involved in many games, and I liked that we didn't have to clean up the nerf darts after we finished read more

I visited the Great Big Game Show with twelve friends and had a really fun time! I haven't done an experience like this before and learned that being on a game show is probably not my best bet in this life. Our host was either Connor or Cooper (I'm sorry I forgot) but he was really engaging and is definitely going to have a great career in broadcasting. My team lost so I left with a sour taste in my mouth but other than that I'd recommend it for a group. read more

I didn't read up on this venue because I wanted to have no expectations. When we got there, they didn't really tell us what to expect except that we were put into teams. We had eight people in our party and they notified us that might that another four people would join us whenever they arrived. That's odd. Sucks that we could get the room to ourselves. We go into a small room, but as we are walking down the hall, we heard other teams hooting and hollering so we knew it was going to be a good time. We split into our teams and waited patiently for a few seconds before our host entered the room. How neat to have a live host! That made it feel like a real game show. She was enthusiastic, charismatic, and hilarious. We played games such as stacking, trivia (two), spin the wheel, Plinko, and Nerf guns. It was a lot of fun. The best part is that you didn't have to pick up all the Nerf bullets. As long as you have the right kind of people in your group, you will have a fun time. The only downside is the price. I can't justify $42 for 30 minutes of fun. I don't know. I might check out the Trivia session to see if that would be more worth it. read more

So we haven't played a game yet, so Yelp! might reject my review for now, but we became aware of this place and wanted to check it out and see if it was something we wanted to bring friends to. We like escape rooms and trivia games so we were curious. We visited on a Sunday afternoon when there were games going on and we were not sure what we would be able to figure out or not... We were greeted by about 3 employees who quickly figured out that we were there on a fact finding mission and somehow signaled two very lovely young ladies from somewhere in the back to appear and take us on a tour. They were so kind, patient, and thorough in explaining what they had to offer that we absolutely will be back with a group of 10 or 12 to experience this! read more

I recently had the pleasure of having Julia as the host for my birthday game show, I can't express how fantastic she was! From moment she stepped onto the stage, warm and inviting demeanor set the perfect tone for our celebration. Julia was polite and engaged with, making sure that each participant included and valued. fun and bubbly personality brought so much energy to the room, and her sense of humor kept us all laughing throughout the games. She had this amazing ability to make even the simplest tasks feel exciting and entertaining! With her quick wit and charm, she turned our birthday party into an unforgettable experience. Julia's enthusiasm was contagious, and you could see that everyone was having a blast, whether they were participating in the games or cheering from the sidelines. Overall, Julia made my birthday special by adding that extra spark of joy and laughter. I wholeheartedly recommend her as a game show host for any event.

The whole concept only works if they sell it and they 100% delivered. The session ran right at an hour, which felt perfect. No dragging, no awkward downtime just a clean, high-energy experience start to finish. Only heads up: drink options are pretty limited, and definitely grab everything you want before going into the game room. They say you can step out, but once things get going, there's really no natural break to do that. Overall, easy 5/5. Would absolutely do this again especially for group events. They have a few different "scenarios" to experience.

It would be helpful to assign a staff member to each field trip group to limit having to speak to multiple staff. Lastly, be mindful of the tunnels. They are fun however, we had middle school students present during our visit and they were making out in the tunnels. Better lighting could help fix this with a reminder to chaperones and parents to keep an eye on their children. Highlights - Massage Chairs - Plenty of space for student to run and explore - Activities for everyone - Snacks Bar

My son enjoyed himself, but there are HUGE safety concerns here. He would have been safer on a…read moreconstruction site. He ran into a concrete wall at full speed and almost hurt himself because it was so dark. He also got injured while in the plane and his friend also got injured on the slide. I have included a picture. There was also a man who made him extremely uncomfortable who works there and who was wearing black lipstick. Tattoos everywhere and just not professional. Additionally, my son and his two friends went to get snacks and one of the items his friend was buying was .12 cents short. The worker gave him no grace and wouldn't let him have it. I mean, I get it was a little short, but seriously? He was buying it for his friend who needed a drink too. You guys lost an opportunity as a business to go above and beyond -- especially for an eleven year old! My son had a fun time, but I'm not sure if I'd take him back. I think his friends made the experience TBH. Y'all need to hire better and fix those safety issues. Someone will sue. UPDATE: They went through the motions of responding publicly, but once contacted through email completely stonewalled me and never responded. Will never give them another dime and neither should you.

I also saw her managing the front area with walk-in's really well (the mall setup has got to be stressful for that!). The Witch themed room was right at my personal max level of scary/spooky. It seems like most of the other rooms had a spook factor to it; I'd love to see some that are more mystery, adventure, or heist themed. We will def be back for the Agent Smith room sometime very soon! Highly recommend!

We did not venture further in, so I cannot comment on the facilities there. The shoreline trail runs back between the subdivisions and the lake, away from the park. I think you could just walk across the road and access a connecting trail that leads into the park; however, you might have to pay an admission fee even a a pedestrian. I do not know. We just followed the shoreline for a mile or so. The scenery is sometimes pretty along the lake and some of the homes / back yards can be interesting as well. We passed several individuals and groups during our walk. The trail is not secluded (often passing groups of homes) and seemed quite safe. If you are in the area and want to take a walk away from the traffic, this is a good budget choice.

The Great Big Game Show at The Colony is an absolute blast from start to finish. If you've ever wanted to step inside your favorite TV game show, this is your chance. The energy is high, the challenges are creative, and the whole experience feels immersive in the best way possible. From the moment you walk in, the set design pulls you in -- bright lights, upbeat music, and that "you're on stage" excitement that instantly gets everyone engaged. The hosts are fantastic: charismatic, quick-witted, and great at keeping the momentum going. They make everyone feel like a star, whether you're competitive or just there for laughs. The games themselves are a perfect mix of strategy, trivia, physical challenges, and hilarious surprises. There's something for every personality type, so no one feels left out. It's ideal for date nights, birthdays, team-building events, or just a fun night out with friends. You'll find yourself cheering loudly one minute and laughing uncontrollably the next. What really stands out is how interactive and inclusive the experience is. It's not just watching -- you're fully in it. The pacing is spot-on, and the whole event feels polished, professional, and genuinely fun. If you're looking for something different to do in The Colony that guarantees laughs, friendly competition, and unforgettable memories, The Great Big Game Show delivers in a big way. Highly recommend! read more

Our experience at the Great Big Game Show was a blast! Ellie, our host, was full of energy and made the whole event super fun. We booked ahead for nine people to play The Original and got our own private room, which was awesome. A quick tip: make sure to forward the waiver email to everyone in your group so they can sign it ahead of time - I thought signing mine covered everyone, but each person needs to do it individually. They split us into red and blue teams, and if you haven't decided teams beforehand, they have a fun way of drawing chips to sort it out. No outside food or drinks are allowed, but they do provide a bottle of water for each contestant at their podium, which was nice. We played about 5 or 6 games, and the hour just flew by, thanks to Ellie's excellent pacing. It really felt like we were on a real game show, and everyone had a great time. The only downside was that it got a bit stuffy in the room with all the activity, but they did have fans to help circulate the air. Overall, it was an amazing experience, and I can't wait to go back! read more

"Wow, what an exhilarating experience! My wife and I had an absolute blast watching and participating in The Great Big Game Show. From the thrilling moments of spinning the wheel to the innovative integration of the blockchain game, every aspect was captivating. The hosts kept the energy high, and the incorporation of the 'blaster' round added an extra layer of excitement. It was a night of non-stop entertainment and fun.

Very similar to another business I visited in McKinney. CJ was awesome. He was an amazing host so was the man at the front desk. They sent us a 30 Second highlight reel of the top moments of our game you. could play with as many people as you want and choose between so many different games.

The artwork and animatronics are spot-on, really creative and entertaining. They are proud of their designs, and each location is a little bit different. It's an indoor course you play under UV lights for the "glow in the dark" effect. We find it one of the more affordable mini golf courses ($13/adult, $11/child/senior). It must also be very well-maintained, because we've been coming in for 5+ years now and I have never once thought, "Oh, this part here is getting worn down" or is dirty or needs to be replaced. The staff is friendly and genuinely want you to have a good time. We occasionally avail ourselves of the mini bowling and arcade (there are price packages if you want to play multiple things), but the mini golf is our jam.

Can't remember last time I went to or saw an indoor mini golf place, but given that it was a bit warm that afternoon and it was October, indoor-monster-themed-mini-golf was the perfect mix. We really enjoyed the quick and simple layout of the course and more so, all the unique monster-themed paintings scattered throughout the course. Our little one had a great time and we did as well. After finishing the mini golf, we enjoyed their small arcade area and our son was able to get some cool monster-themed prizes with his tickets. I really liked the theme and how unique this place was, compared to the other kids places of this variety (Dave and Busters, Chuck E Cheese, etc). After our weekend in Frisco, Monster Mini golf was actually one of the highlights of the trip and the friendly staff made it all the better. If you're looking for a different, fun outing for you and the kids, go check out Monster Mini Golf.
