Play Playground Interactive Games

Seven life-sized, interactive games built to transform classic childhood favorites into high-energy interactive experiences.

Seven life-sized interactive games were designed and delivered for Play Playground’s Nashville venue, reimagining familiar childhood favorites at full scale. Each game was built to encourage movement, friendly competition, and social play within a permanent, high-traffic environment.

The project required close collaboration across multiple partners, including design teams, engineers, fabricators, and building contractors. With many moving parts and a compressed timeline leading up to opening, careful coordination, planning, and testing were critical to delivering a reliable, launch-ready experience.

Our role focused on the electrical systems and technical integration that powered interactivity across all seven games. In the months leading up to installation, we spent extensive time producing detailed schematics, manuals, and electrical enclosure diagrams to support efficient installation and long-term maintenance. We engineered and built the electrical components, integrating LED lighting, sensors, actuators, and inductive and capacitive inputs with built-in redundancies.

We also handled software interfacing, LED mapping, system integration, and extensive testing to ensure reliable gameplay, responsiveness, and durability in a high-traffic environment. The result was a production-ready system that delivered consistent performance while preserving the energy and playfulness of the experience.
