Very well organized and a lot of fun. The only improvement item would be to mention where the pubic restrooms were. When we started our trip the bathrooms were closed at the beginning of the hunt. So we had to search for an alternative location. Otherwise it was very fun and we learned some new things about Columbus.

I gave it a 3 mainly due to price. We drove for 2 1/2 hours to get there, and luckily it was first responders month so we got in for $10 each. I would have been really upset to pay $24 per person for the size of the place. That aside, if we lived close and went a lot, the annual pass may be worth it. Also, since we aren’t from the area we had to ask someone where to find it. FYI, it’s inside of the mall. The boys are both 10 and they did pretty well, but I wouldn’t recommend it for any older. Eat before you go, because the snack shop is expensive. The displays in mini land are awesome. There’s several things for them to do including a 4D theater that plays 4 different short films, a climbing play place, a ride where you shoot characters with a laser gun, a ride that goes in circles (they liked this one), and several interactive LEGO stations.

This room was great! We had a fantastic time and our reporter journalist was very helpful in getting us started. There were a lot of clues and I'm glad we were able to work in groups to figure out multiple clues at once so we could work together at the end to solve it.
