Mt. Playmore Austin, TX

The largest playscape in Texas! A great indoor playing space for the whole family. https://mtplaymore.com/

That being said, if all your family is teenagers, this is probably not their space. It’s more for a young family, or a family with mixed ages.

First off, they have a wonderful staff who is dedicated to your kid. My nieces ages are just far enough apart the oldest one can run circles around the middle one and she actually ended up leaving her behind in the first 10 minutes of getting there (despite agreements to go slow enough for the middle one to keep up). When I went to check on them I found the middle one (5 years) crying her eyes out for fear of being lost (when the exit was only 5 feet away), calmed her down enough to explain what happened and before I could get my first shoe off a worker had gotten to her alongside an older child who followed his mother’s request to help her down. After I echoed that mother’s request to have her follow her child down, she quickly navigated out and was ready to go again LOL. Plus they have a wagon with a red light on top that wheels around a lost child until the kid sees their parent/guardian or visa versa. So know, your child is in great hands.

To the fun stuff!! There’s a huge section dedicated for a 2 story and fully connected playscape area that has slides, obstacles, and I even saw a hammock area. There are multiple ways to enter and exit. In the middle of this playscape are dozens of sitting options to be with other adults while keeping an eye on your kid. You can even join in on the fun, especially if your little one needs a helping hand to get through the areas or gain some courage to do it alone. I’m 5′ 6″, 145lbs, and fit through all the spaces and obstacles. It is well built and you can trust it to hold you.

There is also a Junior Ranger area that’s a bit smaller, but fun for the toddlers who may not be quite ready for all that fun. My youngest niece (2 years old) had lots of fun in their tree house, fisher price cars, and self twirl toy. She could hardly be pulled away when it was time to go.

The arcade area is pretty big. From a room with laser room you crawl through like 007, a 4D ride you encase yourself into to get the full effect, animals or cars to ride on, shooting games, fishing games and more, there is something there for the whole family. My nieces loved the shooting games (from guns to water) the most, but also enjoyed air hockey, a couple fishing games, and riding the 3 horsed merry-go-round.

During our breaks we enjoyed some of their snacks (cheese quesadillas, fries and Slurpee) and were very grateful for their free water cups. They had tables and booths just outside the play area and arcade. You could still keep watch if the kids stuck to playing on the part that faced the eating area.

We’ve also been here during a birthday party and that was a great experience. They basically take care of everything according to a schedule you agreed to (pizza this time, cake this time, play this time, etc.) You could stay and play as long as you wanted, but the room rental only lasted an hour. Then all your stuff was moved to a few tables pushed together and a cart with your pizza and cake you brought was settled next to it. Overall a great experience. I highly recommend.

Of course the kids earned tickets while playing in the arcade and there’s a place to redeem them for stuff in the corner opposite the Junior Ranger area on your way out. The girls got a slinky, bouncy ball, and 6 witch fingers. Tip: When all their cards went under a dollar I had the front desk combine them all to one so they could enjoy a couple more rides.

5 stars for us!!
