Reviews Summary
Visitors rave about Activate Orlando, calling it an 'awesome' and 'incredible' experience that's like stepping into a video game. The interactive challenges, RFID wristband system, and variety of games are major highlights, offering great exercise and fun for all ages. While some found the game instructions a bit confusing initially, the overall consensus is that it's a highly recommended, high-energy activity.
"Visited Activate for a friend's birthday and we had an amazing time! We paid $30 per person for 60 minutes and honestly it was such a good deal. Each person gets a wristband and there is an additional wristband to unlock and lock your locker to pull belongings in. Each game room allows up to 5 players and has multiple game modes to choose from - game mode instructions are provided. Our group really loved the grid and laser rooms. There is a photo booth area that emails you the pictures for free! Prepare to sweat and get lots of exercise while running around in these interactive rooms as it gets super competitive! There are water fountains here as well. The workers provided great introduction to Activate. At the end, you can see how many points you got, spin for extra coins, and use the rewards or accumulate them the next time you visit. This place will definitely see me again!"

"This place is AWESOME!!! This place is like an adult/kid friendly human arcade! Went with. A group of 12 people all ranging from 24-33 and every single person had a blast. If this place gets more hype they are going to need another BIGGER location. The games are fun and the hour seems to blow by!! The customer service was also really great and the staff very helpful and accommodating. All in all we all had a blast here! Also the price seemed very fair tbh. I'll definitely be back!"

"Activate Orlando was one of the coolest places I’ve visited as an adult! The rooms were highly immersive and fun. Be sure to listen to instructions thoroughly before entering the rooms, as we were a bit lost when first getting started. Robin was very helpful as a guide as well! The grid room was the best, we went on a Friday night so we had to wait, however since the games are 60-90 seconds long, it felt quick and easy. The lasers room were also pretty awesome! Will 100% come back!"
