Our party was a huge success. Melanie and Antony (Empire staff) were great...every attention to details and comforting all off our guests. The kids loved having the freedom to run the park from end to end while the parents loved the safety and security provided by Empire Adventure. I recommend Empire to everyone...great party place!!!

They had so much fun but be mindful that if you stay too long they tend to get tired and bored after a while. Short and sweet does it! There were quite a few birthday parties going on and it was crowded, but the kids weren't on top of each other, there was enough space and things to do. The vr game is extra money and it only last for about 5 to 6 mins. Overall, it's something different the kids will enjoy. If you're not gonna participate then you don't need the socks or the wristband, but as a parent you can walk around and watch your kids enjoy themselves. They have paid lockers but you can put the shoes by the benches and take the chances of them being misplaced or walk around with them, which I did no problem because I only had 2 kids with me. We ate outside after so I don't know how the food tasted or how much it cost. So go ahead and visit if your kids love jumping, running through obstacle courses, climbing and swinging, they'll have fun and sleep like a baby that night!

Josh S. and Josh M were the most amazing host. I had a great time as well as my children . I would recommend them for another party in the future. Thank you for the amazing time

I'd been wanting to check out this new children's indoor amusement center since they opened inside Samanea Mall and finally had the opportunity on Labor Day. I was actually surprised they were open and it wasn't very crowded either!

There was plenty of free parking on the 2nd level right by the walkway that leads to Empire Adventure Park. There is a roof above everything so if it's raining, no worries!

Check in (I did walk in) was smooth and quick. You do have to sign a waiver but it's just scanning the QR code and filling it out which takes a minute. Children 4 and under cost $15.99 and Empire Adventure Socks are required ($3.50). Not sure if they accept cash as I paid via credit card. General admission for 5 years old+ start at $30.99. You book according to how much time you want (ie 60 minutes, 90 minutes, 120 minutes).

The child gets a rubber-like wristband with a light on it that stays lit blue. I'm assuming once your time is up, the light turns red? When I went, they had a promotion going on for unlimited time so the light remained blue the whole time. For the unlimited promotion days, once you leave the facility, you have to return the bracelet and would have to pay again if you wanted to re-enter.

Adults don't need to purchase admission/socks unless you plan on participating with the child. If you do need to go into the play area though, you have to be wearing socks and can leave your shoes right outside the play area.

Lockers are also available for rent for $8/day with unlimited access until you "End Rental". They're pretty spacious in my opinion and can fit maybe 2 small bags and a pair or two of shoes (depending on shoe size).

There was a good amount of seating for the adults throughout the venue although I felt they could have put a bench or 2 outside the toddler/interactive screen area. Play areas include a dodgeball trampoline area, individual trampolines, toddler soft play area for children 4 and under, laser tag, glide rail, Augmented Reality trampoline games, a giant inflatable bounce house, Ninja Obstacle Course, Adventure Maze, Valomotion climbing wall, interactive screen games (multiball Valomotion), some spinning poles/arms area (I think you have to be a certain height for this), VR Hyperdeck (extra cost) and Esports (extra cost).

The food court was just okay in my opinion. I was disappointed and surprised that they did not sell individual pizza slices, which is what my child wanted. I wasn't going to buy a whole pizza pie of 8 slices for the two of us. We settled for a small tray of Cheese Fries ($5) which tasted okay.

There's bathrooms for women, men and even a family bathroom. In the women's bathroom, there is a changing table in the handicapped stall. It would be nice to maybe have a step stool at the sink for the younger kids so they can reach.

I think it would be helpful to have a staff member supervising the spiral slide in Adventure Maze as you cannot see when the child before you gets out of the slide or if someone is climbing up the slide so collisions can happen. Also, maybe a staff member at the Augmented Reality trampoline game area. When we were there, one kid stayed playing games on the trampoline for a really long time while other kids just stood at the sideline waiting. If kids were there for the timed open play, I'm sure they wouldn't want to spend too much time waiting in line.

Overall, though a little pricey if you're not there for a promotion, I think there is a lot for children to do! My toddler was there 5 hours (yes, you read that right...where do they get all their energy) and refused to leave. The facility is the perfect size with comfortable A/C and a fan going. Majority of the staff were young but I had no issues with them. I think Empire is working on having toddler hours which I think would be great for the little ones!

I had my son’s 3rd birthday here and it was truly a remarkable time! Our party host, Aanylah was amazing. From the time we arrived, she greeted us with a smile and was constantly checking up on our guests to make sure everyone was okay. We had a huge party, 20 kids and 30 adults. We were not overwhelmed or frustrated at any given point. I cannot recommend this place more! The kids had a great time. We cannot wait to come back. Thank you!!

We recently celebrated our son’s 7th birthday at Empire Adventure Park and booked a party room for two hours. Unfortunately, the experience was disappointing. The pizza arrived late, and the cake-cutting felt rushed. The kids hadn’t even finished eating when they hurriedly sang the birthday song, and to our surprise, four staff members came in to remove our cake table and belongings, placing them outside. It took another 15 minutes for someone to come and finish cutting the cake. Considering how much we spent, the level of disrespect was unacceptable. It was extremely embarrassing for my son and my entire family. I have never been shamed like this before. The staff were not understanding at all, and when I raised my concerns, they even tried to argue with me, insisting that I had signed a contract. We will not be hosting another event here, and this experience has left a very negative impression on us.
