“Sensory bags with noise-canceling headphones, fidget tools, and verbal cue cards”, “available for anyone who needs them.”
“Will I be locked in? Absolutely not! That's not safe. You can leave at any time”
“Most of our rooms are not scary, and there are no actors hiding inside waiting to jump out at you.”
The staff has KultureCity sensory training, and there are clear signs and expectation guides to cut down on surprises.
The puzzles are designed for adults; kids 12 and up tend to do well, and younger kids enjoy them with help. For kids, pick a room with a lower challenge level.
