Hey everyone,
Just wanted to share a recent experience at the lesser known TeamLabs attraction in Tokyo. The entrance is free.
The attraction is located at Galaxy store in Harajuku on the third floor where they have running TeamLabs installation. The immersive & interactive art installation currently has dinosaurs running around and they will hand you a phone to shoot at the dinosaurs (collecting them). The line up (with no reservation) is moving very quickly- I would say 5-10 minutes. The show can be completed in maximum 30 minutes. You can also reserve it in advance but in my opinion, not required at all.
The wall is interactive so if you touch the dinosaurs, they will make noise and run away. The floor is also interactive where you can cast digital net and guide other animals together into your net.
I would recommend this especially if you are in the area and want to see what TeamLabs is all about (especially for free and little time commitment). It has a feel of the now temporarily closed Tokyo borderless but of course in smaller scale!
Other tip: within the store, there are other mini attractions such as digital immersive view of Tokyo skyline (first floor), crane games (fourth floor), a BTS collaboration mini games and display, etc. As you go through the store, you collect stamps which can be exchanged for gachapon attempts (has food prize and stickers). All of this are free.

Very cool!!! I’m planning a trip in November and have done a ton of research but haven’t come across this! Love under-the-radar recommendations like these. Thanks for sharing!
I have not come across this either. Yes, Thanks for sharing.
do you have to have a Samsung galaxy phone to make it work?
Thanks. Now I know what I’ll be doing this afternoon.
