Can I give this place 6 stars? We had an absolute blast at this establishment. We did all 4 of their rooms in one day and wish they had more. First off, the staff members we interacted with throughout the day were friendly and informative. The rooms were really awesome and very different from each other. Pyramids was theatrical and exciting ... Beasley's was traditional with a few technical surprises ... Space Force was really unique (but we blew it away) ... Central Intelligence was very intriguing and had some really fun and unique surprises (If you're very experienced escape roomers ask to have it set up in difficult mode!). I would heartily recommend these rooms if you are looking for a great time for a group of family or friends!

Carlsen Center

Reviewed By brumba50 - Savage, United States

This group was wonderful!!! It’s nine blokes in an Ireland pub singing a variety of pop, rock and jazz with a few basic instruments. Their voices are the main wonderful event. Carlsen Center has events most weekends. They have a variety of styles, and tastes in their presentations and at decent prices, so look at them on the weekend here in the southwest KC suburbs and see what they have.

Topgolf

Topgolf is the premier golf entertainment complex. Players hit golf balls containing computer microchips that track each shot's accuracy and distance while also awarding points for hitting targets on the outfield. Topgolf offers an upscale, laid-back experience that features climate-controlled hitting bays and an impressive food and beverage menu crafted by our executive chef.

Reviewed By jgambong - Springfield, United States

Great fun. The television screen showing our shots was very accurate and full of funny little comments. Played in December (about 40-45 degrees) but the overhead heater kept us pretty warm. In fact, be careful of the table directly below the heater getting too hot. Ice in our drinks quickly melted and my son's phone overheated while sitting on the table. Service was excellent. I would suggest for a semi-serious golfer that you bring your own clubs as those available at Topgolf showed a bit of wear. In the end, a very good experience.
