Jaks Warehouse, Schererville

Jak's Warehouse's off-kilter sign hints at the fun to be had behind its brick entryway. Within the industrial-themed indoor playground, children dodge beams of light in the laser-tag arena, maneuver up the Jak's Peak rock wall, and navigate tunnels and launch volleys of foam balls in a Ballocity climbing structure. The four-story Sky Trail climbing structure’s elevated platforms and swinging ropes let visitors nearly touch the ceiling of the expansive space. On the ground, nearly 100 modern arcade games—including the multisensory indoor rollercoaster XD Dark Ride—fill the Warehouse floor with lights and Morse-code messages from Pac-Man to his wife. Casual café fare is available at the onsite restaurant, including sandwiches, hot dogs, and pizzas.
