    Has anyone seen this? I know it's an art installation, but other than that, I'm having a hard time understanding exactly what it is.

    Yes. Have been with my 17-year-old daughter. All I can tell you is it's an immersive art experience. Kids understand it better than adults. The first Meow Wolf in Santa Fe, New Mexico prepped us for the new one in Las Vegas :)

    It's fantastic and amazing and it can't be explained. If you appreciate weird or offbeat things, you will love it and will gladly go multiple times. If not, you probably won't. The only way I can describe it is it's simultaneously an immersive art installation, a children's museum for grownups, a satire of commercial culture, an escape room, etc. Beyond that, you will just have to see for yourself.

    I thought it was an awesome place to spend a couple hours. There’s several experiences you can do, its loud and bright. There’s a good interesting restaurant in there too. I thought omega mart was worth the price and we didn’t even do the escape room/scavenger type activity.

    Seconded. It just sort of... is. It's incredibly cool, but I couldn't put it into proper words.

    I took my 13 and 19 year olds in June. The 13 year old and I enjoyed exploring the weirdness of Omega Mart for about an hour and a half. There is some sort of backstory you can solve if you’re so inclined. Computer files and journals to explore, etc. it’s like a puzzle. My 19 year of was totally into it - she stayed there about 4 hours and felt satisfied she had a good understanding of the storyline.

    agree - I should have been clear in my comment that although I can't explain it I highly recommend it to anyone!

    I thought of a Omegamart is sort of a giant escape room that you weren’t locked into.
