Some of the games listed on the Play Playground website include:

  • Perfect Popper: a game similar to the board game “Perfection,” where players will attempt to match pieces to the correct spots before time runs out

  • Ringer Run: players will focus on moving a wand though a hanging maze without the wand touching the sides, with the fastest time winning the most points

  • Biggle Ball: players will need to work together to guide a ball through a huge maze for points

  • High Jump: players will jump and hop to each side of the game as they attempt to hit the buttons as they light up

  • Bullseye Bounce: players will soar through the air to hit the bullseye on the larger-than-life Velcro wall
