Our last trip was when he was 9 he played for hours. When my son was young, he grew bored after the first 1-2 quests. Once they complete a Quest they can go back to a central Tree and complete new quests. Their wands will cause Infrared game areas to behave (slightly) differently depending on the game they are playing. More than one game can be played in the game space at the same time. The size of the game space is huge its a 3 story building with slides, stairs and ladders navigating their way through a (fairly simple) multi-story maze. With your 9 year old child, its best to focus on the high score board and see if he can beat the high score of the day the standard game will be almost too easy for him.

A 7 year old is the perfect age and will easily finish a game. 99% of the activity takes place in the MagiQuest building. There are a few in other parts of the hotel, but they are sparing and unimpressive. Once you pay, they sync your wand to the system and your wand can activate the various infrared play areas. They'll let you wear whatever you want (most kids are in swim trunks and a t-shirt). They'll let you used "previously purchased" wands (we've gone several times because its only 1 hour from our home and they've never hesitated to let us use our previously purchased wands). The one thing you cannot avoid is paying to play. I'd look for used costumes as well otherwise your kids will be pushing you hard to shell out another $60.00 a piece for outfits. We chose to buy one of the costumes and had it double for our son's Halloween costume. MagiQuest sells far, far more than wands and toppers. Buying a new topper is simply throwing money away. Buying a used wand with a topper is fine. They are plastic sculptures that screw onto the end of a wand.

The "toppers" don't add any functionality to the wands. Most of MagiQuest is designed to separate you from your money. I searched eBay for "MagQuest used" and the list was enormous. It uses wands and only wands and absolutely nothing else. Other people have claimed MagiQuest doesn't use wands. We would return should we come to the Dells again. He was kind enough to correct the matter and assisted my oldest with the step he was missing. We spoke with the attendant from the first night, he informed us their extra powers had not been loaded. It wasn't until our third day of playing that we realized our toppers (which are extra) did not work. Due to this, I feel like some information was missed. Midway through our transaction he returned and completed our check out. When we first arrived at the shop, we engaged with a Great Wolf employee as the main attendant must have been on break. Had those multiple areas been open, it would have made their experience even better. It took our entire stay but they were able to complete all tasks.ĭue to Covid-19 the additional areas for climbing and slidding to complete your missions were closed off. Our kids are 10 and 7 and they thoroughly enjoyed running up and down the stairs trying to complete each quest. It was an easy way to keep our kids entertained, especially when pool attractions were shut down. They opened before and stayed open later than the pool. The nice part about this location, it's attached to the hotel so we never had to leave the property.

It also included free ice cream, bulk candy, and arcade credits. This included 1 - MagiQuest game, 1 standard MagiQuest wand, topper, or belt. We decided to go with the middle option (Red Paw Pass) for $45 per individual.

During our check-in process, we noticed a display advertising "Paw Passes" for resort guests. We were staying at the Great Wolf Lodge for a spring break getaway.
