I think the novelty of experiencing something unique significantly improves ratings for most as it's far different than an escape room that almost everyone has already been to one or more times. So after the first game or two, I was envisioning a strong 5-star review. But after everything was said and done, I would feel, being very objective and unbiased, a 5.0 star would be a bit too high. More like 4.5 rounded up. Full disclosure we had 3 people which is the worst number as then you can't have two teams. But I'm disregarding that we had to play against a virtual house opponent. They actually let us play some games more than once so it had its upside too. There are 5 games based on the senses. I won't go farther as to not ruin the surprise. 3 were really fun, 1 was pretty fun, and 1 was mediocre although younger kids would like it (the balls). A couple games were more difficult than expected but still fun. The main thing that brings it down to a 4.5 for me, is the value. At $31 a person, we were done in about 50 minutes, about an hour including the orientation. Not the published 75 minutes. We felt like we wanted at least one more game to feel like it was worth the money or something far better than the quick ball game. I can see they priced it roughly around escape room prices. If you've never done it, feel $31/person is fair for an hour of entertainment, and have a group of 4-8, it's probably 5 stars. But the value would go down next visit as the uniqueness of a new experience is part of the entertainment. For us we felt dropping almost $100 on this was a tad pricey for 3 people so 4.5 stars. $25/person, would be 5.0 -stars. Staff is great. Realizing that our session might have been fast because we only had 1 team despite replaying a couple games twice, assuming a large group gets more play time and considering the two-team competition aspect, I'm rounding to a weak 5 stars. But definitely a 4-star for repeat visits. read more

My family and I had a great time during our visit at Sensology. The booking was easy to do online. You select your day/time, number of guests, pay the fees for the group, and complete the consent forms. Our game host was Jess. She was very kind and had a lovely personality. She also gave us a courtesy call to ensure we located the center within the Grand Sierra Resort. What caught our eye was that we had to use one of our senses in each of the five challenges: smell, taste, touch, sight, and hearing. The day before we had gone to an escape room and were looking for more similar experiences. Some of the challenges required the team to be split into teams while other challenges required the entire team to participate. Overall, it was a great time and I highly recommend to take a few family members and friends to enjoy the experience with. They also have a snack bar there and a dart room called the Dart Side next door. read more

This was an enjoyable experience. Milo was a perfect game host. She had a fun bubbly personality. She was great at getting more interactions out of us and in encouraging more betting. We are visiting the Tahoe area and saw a brochure. It is not like anything else I have ever tried. I use sensory for my work so it was fun to flesh it out in a different way. I would highly recommend! We went as just two people. The optimal amount of people in a group would probably be 4. I could see it as a great team building experience. read more

What a great experience! This was such a fun and unique experience. Kira was amazing leading our large group (9 people) and accommodating us. Everyone had so much fun! Highly recommend this place for group bonding. Roughly took 75 minutes. Additionally there is a bar in the sensology area where you can take a break and get a drink or some snacks. read more

This place so much fun!!!! So many laughs.... Action packed event. There's even a bar to get drinks. Alyssa was an amazing host! We will definitely be back!!! read more

We had a great time, super fun, and our host Jess was fantastic. Fun for the whole family and well worth the price of admission.

Such a fun time! We were looking for an escape room at first, but the wait for the one nearby was several hours. We have a 4 and 6y/o so that wait was not really an option for us. We walked by and went in to Sensology and Noa was at the front. She thoroughly explained the whole thing. She let us know that our age kids might not actually play but act as more supporting roles and also, there is a completely pitch black room for one of the challenges which could be a problem for some kids. We talked to our kids and explained everything she said and they were in. Idk if I'm biased or what but I feel like my kids are excellent communicators and at least one of them is really good at problem-solving. Obviously my kids are the best. lol Anyway, as our game master, Noa was incredibly informative, encouraging, and patient. We all had such a fun time!! The kids did surprisingly really really well and just so you know the games are a lot harder than you think they're going to be!!! adults are around $30 and kids six and under are free. Hopefully you guys can have Noah as your host and have as much fun as we did! read more

Family of 4 came to GSR for an escape room and on the way in we passed this placed. We had no idea what it was, having never heard of it before we decided to give it a go and we had a great time:) Basically there's 5 interactive games using each one of your senses. We split into teams and made it a healthy family competition! My son and his friend are teenagers which was really great for the games because they were able to participate for every game. I imagine it being a bit difficult for some of the littler guys. Still, something everyone should experience at least once. Shout out to our host Zach, he was great:) read more

Thank you Sensology for a great time. read more

The kids had the best experience! Noa is awesome. She was great with the kids. It was worth the money

We were walking by after spending time at the arcade and looked up what sensology was and decided to try. We were a party of 5 with one being a 3 year old. Our game host was Milo and was very nice, great energy and provide great support. We had so much fun and such a great experience. Besides gambling this was the highlight of our vacation. Creating great memories with our kids. We had so much fun we invited friends to join us the next day. This time our game host was Jess and was very nice and attentive to us. We had a party of 10 and 2 under 6 years old. We all had so much fun. I will tell more of our friends and family about this place. It was a great experience to play together. Every staff member there has a friendly and great attitude. read more

We had so much fun and Callie (our gamemaster) was awesome! She went above and beyond to make sure my 3 1/2 year old granddaughter felt included even if she couldn't really play a few of the games. read more

5 STAR REVIEW! Our game hostess was Xander. My party of 7 (4 adults, 2 4yo, 1 3yo) My family and I love staying at GSR and we heard about sensology from the front desk. We decided to book a 7:45pm slot & it was only $31 per person! We split into groups of our own family. We all had a blast. We're so happy we did it & well do it again! SUPER it interactive. read more

Had a very fun and memorable experience with my family thanks to Callie! Her personality, jokes, enthusiasm, and playful humor made my 2nd time at Sensology extremely enjoyable. We were the first group of the day and Callie was full of playful energy. We ranged from teenagers to elder adults and everyone enjoyed their experience! read more

We had such a fun time here. Definitely a must visit when here. Was such a cool experience that's tons of fun for all ages. Cant say too much without giving away the games but we had Milo as our game host and she was amazing at keeping it fun and interactive. Add it to your list, it's a must!! read more

What's a great time! We walked in blind, only knowing that you can get split up into teams, and you're using all five senses to try and win. Our game master, Milo, was fantastic. She was very thorough in explaining what the game is like, the rules, and cheering our teams on. The games were fun and funny, and sometimes built up a sweat. I thought they did a great job coming up with games using all five of our senses. This would be a great place for TEAM building or for friends and family. You can have a minimum of two people and maybe up to eight, so there would be four on each team. I think any more than that would be a hindrance. It's not that big of a deal, but try to have your group it be split into even numbers. I feel that some of the games work out in favor of those who have more in their group. I've done so many escape rooms that this was such a great change of pace! read more

Wow! what a fun time! I was really unsure of this place because the reviews weren't really clear as to what this place is but I am so glad I went. If you love escape rooms or games this place is for you. It's also good for all ages. Basically, you and however many people you are with are put into a room with a staff member. The staff member explains there's five different mini games (one for each sense). Depending how many people are in your party you either work all together or work against each other on competing teams. The staff member guides you through each of the mini games and is available to answer any questions for you. I don't want to spoil the games because it's a fun surprise but they don't require you to be athletic or a braniac. My friends and I had so much fun doing this that we went back the NEXT day and did it again. They also have a seltzer/beer bar attached which has the LOWEST prices on beer and hard seltzers anywhere in the casino. I really hope they open more locations and also switch up the games semi frequently so it's fun to go back and do it over and over again. read more

I cannot say enough good things about Sensology. The entire experience was incredible, but Noa truly made it exceptional. She was so patient with my very excited kid, genuinely funny, and incredibly professional all at the same time. She knew exactly how to keep things calm while still making it fun, and that balance is not easy. You could tell she really cared about the experience, not just the service. She made us feel comfortable, welcomed, and taken care of from start to finish. It was one of those moments where you leave thinking wow that was actually phenomenal. Huge thank you to Noa and the Sensology team. We will absolutely be back. read more

Husband and I had a fun time on date night. Our game master, Jess, did a great job explaining how to play, the rules, and getting us into it. Even though playing with a group would probably be better, we still had a great memorable time. Highly recommend for a unique fun experience. read more

First time trying this place with my wife and friends and it was an amazing experience! We love competing with one another and being involved in games so this was a great setup! Our game master, Milo, was friendly and absolutely amazing! She did great at explaining each part of the game and even piled up on the jokes when we were throwing it at each other. Great experience and a must-do when visiting Reno! read more

We had the BEST time at Sensology! Our daughter wanted to go for her birthday, which ended up being a great experience for her and her friends. Our group age was between 12 & 13, they all really enjoyed the competition between friends and using each of their 5 senses to get through each room. Michael, our game host, helped explain all the games, got them excited to play, and ended up laughing alongside us! We did not use this feature but you can also order drinks and snacks through your game host which is pretty cool! Booking online is super easy! There were a couple other groups at the same time as our game and we hardly noticed them, but if you have a specific time definitely book it ahead of time! read more

My sister was staying at the GSR and we came across this immersive game show style experience. We decided to do this last minute and I'm so glad we did. This experience exceeded my expectations. This was such a fun experience to do as a family. There was a bit of a wait, so we hung out and had some drinks while we waited and the kiddos played chess. Drinks were pretty inexpensive at their bar. There were 6 of us participating, we broke up into 2 teams of 3. We had a 10 & 8 year old, and 4 adults. Our host Jessica was so great and really elevated our experience! We had a private lounge that can hold up to 10 people. We went through 5 challenges/mini games, 1 for each sense (smell, taste, touch, sight, and hearing). You have about 75 minutes to complete all of the challenges, but your host guides you thru each timed challenge. They were very fun, interactive, and really got you to use your senses while working as a team. We're a competitive family, so we got pretty rowdy and laughed so much. It was the best time, equally amazing for the kids and adults. This was a great family bonding experience and I highly suggest this to any one of all ages (age 7 and up is suggested). Definitely great for families, friends, even team building. The cost is pretty reasonable, $31 per person, unquestionably worth it. I highly suggest making a reservation. read more

We had no idea what to expect and had the best time! My 11 and 13 year olds said it was their favorite activity at GSR. We had Milo as our host and she was great... would definitely recommend as a fun activity! read more

Did this for a team bonding and had so much fun!! Jess was so great! Would definitely recommend for small groups or teams!

We had the BEST time at Sensology at the GSR! The games that test all your senses were such a fun and unique experience perfect for a date night. It was just my husband and I this time, but we're already planning to come back with a big group because it would be even more fun! Huge shoutout to our host, Noa she made the whole experience unforgettable. So funny, energetic, and just brought the vibe the entire time! Highly recommend this experience 100% we will definitely be back soon! read more

Great time for the whole family. We went as a group of 2 adults, a teenager and two 10 year old kids and played as one team. Our game host Milo was super friendly and did a great job guiding us through the games. We walked in blind, not knowing much except it had to do with your senses. All in all there were 5 mini games and it took about an hour. While it is a little on the expensive side (at $31), it's well worth it for a fun night out or a special occasion. read more

Thank you, Christian, for being our game host! As a very competitive group of former Wheel of Fortune contestants, we had an absolute blast and definitely recommend this experience. read more

Well I was a bit hesitant to join a group of friends here but I said I was coming so there I was. First we all brought goodies and libations and spent 45 minutes warming up to the idea while sipping champagne! Our hostess was a remarkable gal with a lot of splaining to do. Literally She had her work cut out explaining to us how each experience was to be played. 5 different opportunities to experience different sensory opportunities. I really ended up enjoying the evenings event. You really get your moneys worth here and it's a full evening event. Just the sensory side of the evening lasted 3 hours. Never a dull moment and we laughed a lot! You can order beverages from their little bar but like I said, most of us brought our own. I think I'd give them the drink business next time. This evening was a real surprise and I highly recommend this fun experience. read more

Great for team bonding. My girls and I were here for a volleyball tournament and this was the perfect activity for team bonding. The first gal who helped our group wasn't great and showed clear frustration with my girls, but luckily she switched out with another gentleman who was much more involved and kind. Highly recommended for a fun activity in the area. read more

It was a really fun experience for all three of us. We liked that we were our own group and not added into another group

These game are fun for the whole family and the service is second to none. I would like to shout out Gabe for going the extra mile for us during our visit. We were down a person and he jumped in the ball pit and helped out our team! Thank you for making our second experience at Sensology just as good as our first. read more

This was such a cool experience!! I definitely recommend going in a group - we went with four of us, but our guide Trinity (who was fantastic!) said it's the most fun with 6-8 people! You go through different rooms and compete against your friends in different challenges all based on your senses but this went way beyond what I could have imagined and was SO MUCH FUN!! It is time sensitive though so definitely be on time. There was a bar too for light refreshments during the experience. read more

I have been to Sensology about 3 times. Once with just my husband, once as a double date and just recently as a girls night. Even though I have been there 3 times each time is as much fun as the 1st. Each room is geared towards your senses hence the name Sensology. I can't say I have a favorite room as they all bring their unique challenges. The hosts have all been great some have more energy and jokes than others but over all they are all great. You can get canned drinks from soda to seltzers and beer. They have some snacks too like chips and cookies. Over all it's a great place for anyone ages 10-100. read more

First & foremost, shout out to Lexi, she made this experience a lot of fun and she was super informative. Thank you Lexi for being so patient with us and just being an awesome coach overall. Sensology is probably THE BEST thing that Reno added. I used to go to Reno often as a child/teen & at the time GSR didn't really have much going on for them. Nowadays, GSR added a lot of great activities, this one is by far the best one. Even if my boyfriend and I played as a pair against the house , it was a lot of fun. There were moments in time that we were able to get a redemption round in because technically we weren't playing against another team besides the house. In retrospect, we won the entire set of games against the house (aka: Lexi). All the games were really fun and interactive . It really gets your brain going and blood pumping. None of these games are excruciatingly, difficult or embarrassing enough to not play. All the games are appealing enough to make you want to try it at least once or even go back for a second try. read more
