Mall of America has unveiled its latest concept as part of plans to create more unique on-site experiences. Given the great shift to e-commerce in recent years, traditional brick-and-mortar stores have had to re-focus their efforts to peak the interest of the consumer including a new emphasis on unique, live entertainment experiences.
Announcing the concept, Mall of America said the upcoming opening of Great Big Game Show will give guests the opportunity to experience all the thrills of popular televised game just without millions of people tuning in. This will be the brand’s first and only location in Minnesota and is set to be their largest game show studio yet.
Great Big Game Show is a new concept from the creators of The Escape Game, a widely popular attraction at Mall of America. It has been designed to enable friends, families, and coworkers to work together over multiple rounds of gameplay. Players will get to select from two different theme packs, “The Original” and “Trivia Showdown.”
According to MOA, during “The Original,” two teams will face off head-to-head in a fast-paced battle for points including trivia, chance, challenges, and more. While playing “Trivia Showdown,” teams will compete in an immersive battle of knowledge and speed as they race to hit the buzzer the quickest, while also having the correct answer. To provide a realistic experience, the game show studios will be complete with decked-out stages, podiums, buzzers, and even a real-life host.
“This is an exceptional addition to the unique attractions Mall of America has to offer. Great Big Game Show is guaranteed to provide lots of fun allowing contestants to let loose and show off their competitive side, while creating special memories,” Carrie Charleston, Vice President of Leasing at Mall of America said.
