So much fun. Went for valentine’s day with my boyfriend and we had the best time. Very interactive. Good sensor. Fina was our guide and she explained really well as this was our first time. She was kind and seemed happy at her job which I like. 10/10 will defo come back.

πŸ† Family Action Verdict

Best for families with children aged 7 and up, and particularly strong for teens and adults who want a genuinely active, tech-driven challenge. Younger children from age 3 can attend and enjoy the spectacle. Works well for birthdays and special outings.

β€œ2 adults and one 7 year old playing a box party there was a great variety of games (I even had a 4month old strapped to me and he enjoyed the lights) Will definitely come back again!”

β€œOur experience at the Gamebox in Manchester was absolutely amazing. The kids completely went wild with excitement β€” they had so much fun and couldn’t stop smiling. Everything was fantastic, and every activity was great fun for all of us. A huge thank you to Abi and Caitlin for their amazing support. They looked after us so well and made the whole experience even better. Thanks again for everything!”

β€œBrilliant experience! The games were amazing and the staff were brilliant. We’ve visited a few times and we always have great fun! You can order drinks to the room as you can get hot moving around! We always dress in summer clothes to stay cool :) Caitlin & Francis were lovely.”
