    This is amazingly cool but It is a lot more similar to House of Eternal Return than the others or then I expected. When I was a kid my dad used to tell me stories about a magical mall where each store was its own world. There were places like toy village, land of Candy, Musicville, etc. Given this attraction was opening at a mall I was hoping for a mall theme. It’s great but now I think I need to open my own experience in an abandoned mall. Any artist out there want to try with me.

    So cool CB you got to experience the New Meow Wolf before it opened. We found out a few years ago about Meow Wolf through your channel and have been fans of MW ever since. We've only been to Omega Mart so far and we loved it.
    My first impression of the newest attraction is it looks massive and more or less a mix up if Sante Fe and Convergence Station. The story however looks very vague and not as detailed as Omega Mart. Hoping that there is more of a story to uncover and that maybe that will be unveiled more when this opens to the public. Either was look forward to hopefully seeing this one day in person. Love the channel, keep up the great work👍👍

    It's interesting they did the house concept again, but I do think that is their strongest one. The store in LV also sounds cool but I think the one in Denver doesn't quite have the same feel to it sine you are just sort of thrown in from the start there without everything looking relatively normal at first.
