"Loved my time here with pals yesterday. Ratrick is a real one and made our game special. Excited to come back later and try out more! Highly recommend as a fun and wholesome activity for you and the pals."

“Had the best time with friends for a birthday gathering at Bywater Games! There aren't many chances for adults to experience true delight and whimsy and this really hit the spot. Will be back to play any game Bywater Games ever offers!!!”

-Julia D
“We had so much fun playing the games here!! The rat host is the cutest, and the games were fun + funny. And it's a great option for something different to do on a weekend. Highly recommend visiting!”

-Carin C
“Delightful experience! It's like finding the magical unicorn of family fun! Plus the surprise at the end was so charming it helps restore my faith in humanity. Seriously, its like a little bit of Mardi Gras day wonderfulness you can experience on a Tuesday in June.”

-Tatianna M
"Immersive, fun for everyone, surprising and delightful! From the moment we stepped through the doors, we were immersed... Worth going back for second or third visits!"

Everything you see, play, and interact with at Bywater Games was designed and created by us, with help from a team of incredible local fabricators and artists.
