Staycation - As a mom, it’s just nice to sometimes get away from ALL kids. And Adultiverse 21+ is the way to do it. I friggin love my kids, but this… It’s an escape within an escape. I brought my fancy camera and took the time I needed to indulge in my own creativity. Thankyou.

Fun afternoon - I took an 11 and 10 year old girls there and they loved it. It was so different than anything we had tried before.

Odd but really fun - I wasn’t sure if this activity would be right for us, but we were visiting family in Texas and we have an 11 your old nephew to entertain. But to our surprise, we actually really enjoyed this meow wolf. We weren’t sure what this place was, but it was oddly different and really cool. Kind of wish we would’ve went to the Omega Mart in Las Vegas after this experience. Such a fun place and great experience.

Dejavu experience - If this is the first exhibit that you have gone to, it would be excellent. However, due to having been to all of the other three, this one was simply a smaller version of the other exhibits. We were looking forward to a refreshing new exhibit, and to walk through miniature versions of all of the others was a bit disappointing. Still beautiful, but the dejavu effect was absolutely there. The added 3D paintings scattered about made it fun as well. Also, the staff was absolutely wonderful.

"Magical Meow Wolf: An Enchanting Experience with Some Hurdles" - Writing this review is a bit tough. My teen has been dying to go to Meow Wolf since it opened in Grapevine, so we finally got weekday tickets for last week. Entry was smooth and easy with our 11:20 am tickets. At first, MW was nice but a bit crowded. We spent some time figuring out the app, moving between rooms, and looking for clues and experiences, I downloaded the app, which was a bit frustrating, but once we got the hang of it, I really liked the app. My teen, however, wanted to figure things out on her own. The real challenge came with the clues and interactive options on videos and computers. If we came upon a station and a group was engrossed in it, with no signs of moving anytime soon, we just moved on. When we did stop to check out the interactive stuff, others pressured us to move. Considering we paid $50 per person, I think everyone should get to enjoy the exhibits fully, I let my daughter explore the stations fully and did tell some hovering patrons we would be a minute. Despite these issues, the exhibit itself is absolutely magical. It feels like you’re moving between dimensions, and the family-themed rooms are nostalgic, reminding you of visits to your grandparents or older family member's homes. Open all the drawers and cabinets... you will find hidden gems. Many visitors were great, sharing what they found and showing us secret tunnels, treasures, etc. Loved the sense of community at these times. Unfortunately, some visitors didn’t care about others. Parents, please keep an eye on your kids! My daughter and I were nearly knocked down multiple times by kids running around and playing tag, even on stairs. This is dangerous, especially in a dark space with uneven floors. We literally had two young boys chasing each other on the stairs to another level.. parents hollering slow down after they pushed us, and it was dark on these stairs. Screaming kids who were just playing not upset... etc... really diminishes others experiences. I also want to add this is sensory overwhelming so please be aware of this for your kiddos.... it's A LOT!! I am a mom of several kids and my kids would've been escorted out and in big trouble if they had acted this way. There were also influencers setting up tripods and getting frustrated when people walked through their shots. While I understand they want good content, it can take away from the experience for others. A few hopefully helpful notes: there are no accessible restrooms inside the exhibit (that I saw), so plan accordingly. It’s easy to get separated from your group, so have a communication plan. The café and gift shop are fun, with reasonably priced food in the café, but the gift shop is quite expensive. Alcoholic beverages looked very yummy! We bought the glasses, if you were any type of bifocal or trifocal they are hard to use, I wish I had worn my contacts.... my teenager didnt care for them either, only $2.00 per person. In summary, Meow Wolf is visually stunning and engaging. However, the experience can be made less enjoyable due to overcrowding and unsupervised children. With better visitor etiquette, it could be an even more amazing destination. We were underwhelmed and frustrated due to all the challenges we had during the exhibit. There are adult-only options during the evenings. I highly suggest this vs a busy summer weekday.

Not worth $200 - In all fairness we have been to the Meow Wolf in Santa Fe and Mega Mart in Las Vegas so this isn’t our first experience. I found this location to really lack in interactive displays. It was more like selfie rooms and creative cabinets and drawers to open. Rarely did we run into an employee to interact with and not once did we find a clip board that you would text for riddles. When you enter beware because they don’t allow water inside, but they sell drinks. The employees are also very mundane for an exhibit where they should be playing a role.
