Maylani W

"I’d give more stars if I could! The staff is friendly, upbeat, and keeps everything super clean. We loved being able to go at our own pace. The entire family had a fun time. I highly recommend the enhanced experience."

VGG

"Sloomoo is awesome! The kids had a blast and so did I. Huge shoutout to Tim, Terry & Miana for making it extra special with their kindness and energy. The staff had incredible, great memories!"

Angela R

"What a fun, creative experience for all ages! We tried every texture, slingshotted slime, and even stepped right into it. Making our own slime with scents and charms was the highlight. We can’t wait to come back and get slimed! We will be back!"

Katy B

"Not just for kids! Our teens loved it too! Slime really is like a massage for the brain! Our favorite was walking around in the pits of slime. At the end, we each got to design a custom slime, add color, scent and charms was the perfect keepsake. And book the VIP/Enhanced Experience 10/10 worth it."

Jennifer

"We visited from St. Louis with our granddaughters and we absolutely loved the experience and as adults my sister and I got in on some fun. The girls couldn’t stop talking about the Slime Falls. The staff made it extra special - dancing and cracking jokes. Truly fun for kids (and adults!) of all ages."

Paul J
