I'm glad they had signs hanging up that said ENTER HERE cause the entrance doesn't stand out. Then be warned there are a lot of steps you have to go up to get here. There is only street parking out front, no parking lot. 

                                         

My first job was at Blockbuster Video. 

Duck Hunt is the 18th hole, so don't play it until you're ready to give up your ball. 

They have a Cardinals hole and a Blues hole. 

The Titanic

Centipede hole

Donkey Kong 

On the Price is Right hole you have to put your ball in the top of the Plinko machine and then the ball comes down and out onto the green.

This is an actual pinball machine and you put your golf ball in the machine and play it until it falls out the bottom onto the green. 

This Hot Wheels one was impossible, it took us like 50 tries to get it to go all the way around.

Pac-Man was difficult!

The bowling hole was hard, we kept getting gutter balls.

For the escape rooms, here are the choices and the prices. They also show the difficulty by the average amount of people that successfully escape. 

There used to be blacklight mini golf at Putting Edge and Tee Time but they both went out of business so this is now the only one around. I did like this course a lot but it's pricey. Normal mini golf is about $6 per person but this place is $15 per person. It's a fun time though and we enjoyed it. My 10-year-old daughter is obsessed with Stranger Things and she appreciated all the 80's references and Stranger Things references on the Space Invaders hole.
