Disney4me Posted 1 hour ago Report Posted 1 hour ago LEVEL99 has officially opened in Disney Springs, and we’re making our second visit to the experience after checking it out during a media preview. LEVEL99 is open! First of all, we’ve already told you SO MUCH about this new attraction in Disney World that is a social interactive real world gaming experience that you’ll want to bring your family and friends to. But now that we’ve been back again, we actually have some NEW things we’ve learned about LEVEL99, so we’re sharing that knowledge with you. So what exactly IS LEVEL99? Well, we’re glad you asked. LEVEL99 is an interactive space where you can enjoy “real-world, challenge-based social entertainment” for adults by participating in a variety of physical and mental challenges set in artistic environments. The Disney Springs location isn’t the first LEVEL99 (it’s actually the fourth location), but it’s certainly the biggest. One of the games inside LEVEL99 The Disney Springs location has 63 games with three specific game types, including challenge rooms, which are cooperative games for two to six players in either the physical, mental, or skill categories. Then you’ve got duels, where you can go head-to-head with other players. Finally, there’s an Art Hunt, which is a scavenger hunt involving the art found throughout the space. So, basically, there’s a little something for everyone. Brain Cells challenge LEVEL99 tickets start at $29.99 per player for intervals of 1.5 to 2.5 hours of play. Tickets can be purchased ahead of time on the LEVEL99 website. LEVEL99 So what were the things that we learned by visiting the location on opening day? Well, let’s talk about it. Check-in Time You’ll have a specific reservation time for LEVEL99, but if you want to check in a little early, you will be allowed to do so. Now, if you’re SUPER early, this might not be the case, but if it’s just a matter of minutes, go ahead and check in and get ready to play. Arrive a little early? No problem! So if you happen to arrive at LEVEL99 a little earlier than your reservation, don’t sweat it! You can save the sweating for later…inside…when you’re avoiding getting hit by axes and swinging from ropes. Check-in is fast and easy Checking in for the games is quick and SO easy. The kiosks where you check in are right next to the entrance, so all you have to do is enter the confirmation code to assign it to your wristband. Check-in So, you’ll be playing games in no time flat after you arrive. Look for the Premium Pass line You can get a Premium Pass for LEVEL99, which gets you an even faster check-in, exclusive souvenirs, merchandise discounts, and enhanced access to experiences. If you’ve purchased a Premium Pass, look for the Premium Pass line as it’s separate from the regular line. Premium Pass has its own line You can add on a Premium Pass to your regular ticket for $19.99 per person. FREE Lockers Because many of the activities at LEVEL99 are, well, ACTIVE, you’ll probably need a place to store your things. The space features free lockers that you can use to keep your items safe while you’re playing. Lockers The whole point of the space is to get off your phone and digital devices and play in a real-world setting, so you might as well put those things away (although we get why people would want their phones to take photos!) It’s COLD Elsa must be running around inside LEVEL99 because the temperature inside the building is FREEZING. If you’re not playing games, bring a jacket, even in the summer. It’s cold inside this building! Of course, if you are playing games, this is going to feel SO NICE, and you’ll appreciate the frigid air conditioning. Free Water You’re going to be moving a LOT through LEVEL99, which means you’ll want to make sure you stay hydrated. But you don’t need to bring your water bottle because water stations with free water are available in both the upstairs and downstairs areas. Water station Cups are also provided, so you have everything you need to tame the thirst you’re going to work up while playing the games. Of course, there’s also a bar on-site if you need something a little stronger. Capacity We also asked about LEVEL99’s capacity in Disney Springs, and let’s just say that a LOT of people could be playing here at any given time. The space’s capacity is about 1,200 to 1,400 people! It can hold over 1,000 people! That is a lot of people, but it is a massive building with plenty of activities to keep all those people busy. Hate crowds? Go in the morning If you don’t want to deal with thousands of people at LEVEL99, your best bet is to visit in the morning. Get there right when it opens, which is 11 A.M. Monday through Friday and 10 A.M. on Saturdays and Sundays. Mornings are chill We went on opening day as soon as LEVEL99 opened, and there were about 500 people in the building at the time. We had no waits for any games or anything else. Fewer crowds = more stars and play You earn stars when you play games based on how you did (with a possibility of getting a total of three stars if you excel at the game). Once you earn a certain number of stars, you can customize your avatar. Stars will also put you on the overall leaderboard that combines all LEVEL99 locations. The Retro Pinball Game So here’s the thing, if you visit LEVEL99 when it’s not so busy, you get a chance to repeat games so that you can try to get as many stars for that game as possible. So you can get more stars when there are fewer people playing.
