Columbus, brace yourself for a whole new level of fun! The creative masterminds behind Otherworld are back with their latest brainchild, Gamegrounds, and it’s everything your inner kid (and outer adult) didn’t know it needed.
Set to open soon at 5819 Chantry Drive, Gamegrounds takes classic carnival and arcade games and gives them a mind-bending, immersive twist. Imagine shooting down alien spacecraft, outsmarting creepy clowns, or cracking puzzles that test your teamwork, all while exploring a vibrant, artist-designed space that’s straight out of a sci-fi dream.
Here’s How It Works
Gamegrounds is designed for groups of 2-6 people, making it the perfect outing for friends, family, or even your coworkers (hello, team bonding). You’ll get a 75-minute unlimited gaming session to explore as many games as you want. Whether you’re into puzzles, physical challenges, or good old-fashioned competition, there’s something for everyone to love.
Your ticket includes an RFID wristband to track your scores, so you can flex your skills on the leaderboard. And yes, there are prizes to win, so don’t hold back! Tickets are $24 per person, and private event packages are available if you want to bring a big crew.
When to Go
Gamegrounds is expected to soon, likely in early February, and you can snag pre-sale tickets right now. They run on a timed-entry system, so booking in advance is your best bet, especially on weekends or holidays when everyone’s looking for something fun to do. Walk-ins are welcome, but availability isn’t guaranteed.
Hours are:
- Friday & Saturday: 10 AM – Midnight
- Thursday: 10 AM – 10 PM
- Monday, Wednesday, Sunday: 10 AM – 8 PM
Pro tip: Arrive 15 minutes early to check in, and stick around before or after your session to grab a snack or a drink.

Gamegrounds takes everything you love about gaming, from competition to creativity, and turns it into a full-blown experience. Who doesn’t love tackling puzzles and blasting aliens with their BFFs?
