Family played multi-player games for an hour session, this was the right amount of time for us. Recommended game worked very well and was great fun - another game had some problems joining as multiplayer - so I would ask for advice on best games for what you want to do. Staff was very nice and helpful. Interesting part of town - next time we'll plan to visit a restaurant within walking distance afterward. Great experience! Everyone should try at least once!

About 30 of our employees were in Durham for work at Duke University Health and took a break one evening to have fun. Urban Axes was perfect for us, and gave plenty of time for interaction, fun, and a bit of friendly competition. Every person had a blast.

My wife and I were entrusted with the care of our two granddaughters, ages 4.11 and 2.9, while Mom & Dad were traveling outatown. So it was incumbent upon us to keep the tykes safe... and BUSY! We had once before been to the Notasium with the little ones’ Mom, so we decided to take them back to a place they had enjoyed so much. The Play Space at the Notasium is, well... FUN! The establishment’s focus is on music - lessons and such are available for older children - and the theme to the play space is also music. But what fun music it is! I enjoyed playing scales and simple tunes (well, Do Re Mi is about the limit of my repertoire) on a few simple, but cleverly designed, musical “instruments.” The synthetic percussion synthesizer in the Beat Room was a lot of fun also. Oh... the kids... yeah... they like to climb the “guitar scale” and slide down the musical slope, and they REALLY enjoyed bouncing in the “bounce room.” They finally outlasted my energy level and I had to buy a cup of coffee at the counter and sit and watch all of the proceedings. This is a great place to bring small children on a rainy day... but on this sunny day Grandma & I were certainly glad to cool off and let the kids have at it! Oh... and the admission price for the Play Space is great... the old folks get in FREE, and for $ 14 for our two little ones ($ 8 for first child, $ 6 for her sibling) is very reasonable for enjoying the fun in an educational environment.

This came in a little late. Skyzone is THE family fun place. There is a basketball-dunking section, a dodgeball arena, a foam pit to jump in, and a HUGE just plain trampoline. Great place!
