Great fun for older kids and adults, but it’s more competitive night-out than proper soft play.
The long read worth saving for nap time
What’s it actually like?
Fairgame is an adult-leaning indoor games venue in Central London, with a carnival feel, tap-and-score gameplay and a strong focus on groups. The reviews paint it as a place for friends, birthdays, work outings and competitive dates rather than a traditional soft play centre. The appeal is obvious: people loved the friendly staff, the easy-to-follow game circuit, the music, the drinks holders and the fact that you can win prizes as you go. Several reviewers called it brilliant fun, and the food from Burger and Beyond got a solid mention too. It sounds slick, well run and genuinely more original than most London entertainment venues. The catch is that it’s not cheap once you add food and drinks, and it can feel packed in the evening. For younger children it’s a poor fit, and the sweet spot is clearly older kids, tweens and teens who can handle waiting their turn and enjoy a bit of competition. If you want proper soft play for little ones, this isn’t it.
