Let's just tack on some supervised ax trick shots and you have the best place near Richmond. Here is the best part. You get the best trainers in the biz. I felt like we could ask any question and get pro quality instruction! The staff was sharp and on point (pardon the pun) Tip: don't go hungry, there is no food (outside of packed chips and bottled drinks) or alcohol on the premises. This should change in About 3 mths. Bar/Cafe to come. What a great spot.

Maggie was also there to help guide our group on the proper way to toss and to banter with Brad which was really funny. After a few bad throws, loud bangs, and total misses, our group got the hang of it and it was a ton of fun! Tossing the stars made us feel like ninjas! Great for groups, team building, etc.

I've been to Urban Air on numerous occasions:Spring break, summer vacation, birthday parties, rainy…read moredays ect. At every occasion my kids have left happy and thrilled by the adventure they have had. Compared to competitors Urban Air ranks high on my list. Here is what we love: - Play Space: there is literally something for everyone. Trampolines, dodge ball, ropes course and laser tag! -seating: there is plenty of places for parents to sit while the kids get the zoomies out. They even have comfy massage chairs (at a cost) -cleanliness: this facility is very clean and well maintained! What I disliked - The noise: it is LOUD! I highly recommend noise cancelling headphones for anyone that is sensitive to sound. My ears physically hurt when I'm here so I always have headphones! -the check in process: it's cashless and done via kiosks. Regardless of the amount of times I've been here the kiosk never remembers my info and I always have to re enter it. -jump socks: you must have Urban Air socks to jump here! No exceptions. They will only honor socks with their branded logo. If you don't have them you have to buy them.

This is new to the area. I saw ads on meta for months promoting Urban Air…read more It was super crowded. I think that's mainly because it's new and it's spring break. Lines were all very long. I stood on the line for close to 20 minutes when I finally get up there, the cashier says I need to complete the waiver. I did have the waiver done before I arrived, but on their end my children's names didn't populate so the cashier says I need to stand on a different (long) line, complete the waiver again then get back on another long line to return to get to get wrist bands and socks. I expressed I didn't want to get back on the long line after standing there already. She looked at me with attitude and didn't even acknowledge what I was saying. This is when I'd normally leave a business but my kids were eager to participate. So I went on both long lines again just for admissions. Once inside tables were very dirty if empty. I went to the concession stand asked for spray to clean myself. The staff told me I needed to wait because he was making orders. I waited then I finally saw a janitor staff. He was actually very kind and helped me right away. (That's why I'm giving an extra star). Later my kids wanted to play the arcade games. I didn't realize the kiosk was on the arcade floor but I asked 4 different staff members where I can purchase the arcade card. None of them knew. They finally asked a supervisor and he directed me. Pros: spacious, they can host parties, food on site, zip line, different experience than most activity spaces in the area, custom packages with tier leveled access Cons: price not worth experience, socks which are mandatory are an extra expense, staff not well trained yet I think they will probably improve once they're established a bit longer, but for now it seems like they weren't prepared to open despite there being so many employees. I'll try again and I'll update my review.

The room keeps evolving with great decor and imagination. Supportive staff. The downside was there were a couple clues that need refreshing. In one case the color was faint and worn away. In another the pictures were too dark making it hard to see. Tough if you're in the reading glasses demographic. We still had fun but not up to the level of others we've done.

Called groups by tables for Buffet and ran out of food, have guests standing in line holding their plates. Chicken was luke warm and dry. Servers in sweatshirts with ear pods in. No water on the tables, jug at the front door. Most aggravating part- every time you went to dance they picked up drinks. So we had to order another one, and pay for a new one. Parking lot was full so had to park at the hotel and walk all the around the building.

There is a lot of space with a lot of sectioning up that could happen so that multiple events are going on at once--or for accommodating lots of people. Indoor space and outdoor space. Patios, outdoor bars... the bathrooms are even well-done. It's a very nice venue, and pricing is based on lots of factors--day, time, length of event, space needed, food/beverage, etc. I'm looking forward to receiving my price quote to see the viability of having an event at Atlas 42.

The room has a rated difficulty of 6/10 and we found it challenging, but the gamemaster was very helpful when we asked for hints, and we were able to escape with about 15 minutes remaining. The room design is very well done. It is immersive with many details, twists and turns, and surprises. We had a great time! Other things we liked: convenient location, lots of free parking, and a restaurant in the same shopping center where we could have brunch before our game.

It's located in the mall so plenty of parking. The staff helping with set up and intros were nice an made things easy. For this room we started handcuffed so it took a little longer than normal to get set up. No spoilers obviously but these rooms were very intricate. We needed a lot of nudges and some extra help but we luckily got out. Lots of interesting puzzles and locks here. We were very big fans and would love to try the rest of the rooms!

My husband and I did the Dr. Ensaine and the Bank Heist escape rooms. We did Dr. Ensaine first, which is level medium for difficulty. This one we thought was harder, especially since some of the writing on the objects was pretty worn down so it was hard to read it. I also wasn't sure how you were supposed to connect a couple things without a hint or nudge. This was has a creepy undertone to it but nothing pops out or no one comes out at you, which I was waiting for so that also through me off. The location of this escape room is also in the middle of the others so you could hear other people well which was distracting. We were able to finish even though our 60 mins was up and we finished 3 mins over. Princess was our game host for this one. We came back the next day to do the Bank Heist which was rated 2nd hardest escape room they had. My husband and I loved this one a lot more and we actually made it out with 8 min 47 sec left to spare! This one was more up our alley I think with the types of puzzles and def wasn't scary at all. They used all different types of challenges that we hadn't seen before in other escape rooms. We definitely loved the Bank Heist more, but both were good overall! We had a couple different game hosts here. For 2 people it was $37.50 per person, for 3 or more it's $32 per person. Each room is private so you don't have to share with strangers. You get 3 hints per room but unlimited nudges. It was a lot of fun!
