Things to do in Wisconsin, United States: The Best Game & Entertainment Centers

August 3, 2021 Rosalyn Ihle

When you think “adventure travel” you probably think of far-flung places like Belize and Alaska—not Wisconsin. But if you’re an outdoor adventurer, you’ll find plenty of places to explore in Wisconsin. A vacation in Wisconsin can put you close to the Kettle Moraine State Forest, which has excellent biking trails. Or choose Wisconsin’s Apostle Islands—kayakers will love exploring Lake Superior’s many caves and shipwrecks.

Packers fans don’t wear those cheese-wedge hats for nothing! Foodies will love tasting as many of Wisconsin’s artisanal cheeses as possible. Either drive from cheesemaker to cheesemaker, or choose a Wisconsin vacation in a town with a good farmers’ market—then the cheesemakers bring their wares to you. And what goes better with artisanal cheese than craft beer? In Milwaukee, visit the Lakefront and Sprecher Breweries for tours and tastings.

Wisconsin Dells is a classic family vacation destination. A vacation in Wisconsin Dells will put you close to all the excitement—you’ll have to tear the kids away from the theme parks, wave pools and water parks in Wisconsin Dells!

Lake Geneva boasts clean beaches, golf, and a small-town feel that definitely appeals to city dwellers—it’s a popular getaway for residents of Chicago.

Laser Warfare

Family Friendly Military Style Laser Tag. Play in Huge Wide open indoor arena, two teams battle it out for victory, using replica military weapons with scopes. Both sides have many building, barrels and sniper towers to utilize, if you get hit you can return to your base to respawn. Great for all ages.

I have been here a number of times and it is always a blast. The guns are amazing and the warehouse is great. I have brought a number of groups of kids and they always want to come back.

At What The Lock?, you must explore your surroundings in order to escape. Players must be observant and use their critical thinking skills to escape the room. Some games include sub-plots.

I've done a lot of escape rooms since I began a year ago. This one, I kid you not, is one of the BEST! I have experienced all their rooms and am awaiting one more that's in the works. The gamemasters are all so friendly and enthusiastic about giving you the best experience for a whole 60 minutes. All the rooms are unique; ranging from Prohibition Mission as a gangster blowing up another gang's hideout to Dreadnought a nuclear submarine set to release missiles. The attention to detail tells you these guys love what they do and the rooms fit the theme. Great puzzles make you use your gray matter to it's fullest. I will always, ALWAYS recommend Cracked!

Blades and Boards

Blades & Boards is an hatchet/ax throwing facility that has 14 lanes for throwing! We are very reasonably priced and you can bring in your food or have it delivered! You can also bring in your any and all non-alcoholic drinks. There is beer and ciders available for purchase as well. It's a great team building activity as well as a date night! Give us a call and lets throw some hatchets!!!

This was such an awesome experience! First you get a mini training session and do some practice throws while a worker critiques you amd gives you suggestions to improve. Once everyone feels they are good the clock starts and the worker leaves you to it. We had a group of 15 or so and four lanes. We had pizza delivered (they don't sell food, you are required to buy all drinks through them) and they gave us a big table to set it on. After throwing for a while they brought more axes and demonstrated how to throw two in one hand or two simultaneously. Then they brought specialty axes. It was a ton of fun amd I can't wait to do it again.
