What a wonderful experience! I highly recommend this place for any celebration! My daughter and her friends had so much fun playing VR games and celebrating the birthday in the party room! The staff were super friendly and kind. They helped us with keeping cake & juices in the fridge, adjusting the time for kids that were late, even helping us to order pizza!
I really appreciate the management & staff! All the best!

Walk inside and there are about 4 rooms that can be played in. There's a foosball table outside and they sell drinks as well. They offer a good selection of Virtual Reality games for all ages. Staff is nice and helpful.
VR ARENA
Choose either 45 mins for 3 games $35 or 60 mins for 4 games $45.
Given the activity of the games in this set, it's aimed to be fun for different tastes, age groups and skill levels. Would suggest this for younger kids as their attention span is short and offers a variety.
Kids enjoyed it. Cooking game (COOK’D UP!) was a lot of fun.
Free parking.
Online reservations available.

Great experience! Kiddos loved it. We played the mini games which was just the right amount of time for my 8 year old daughter. Different games to choose from that will please the whole family. The lady working at the counter was very patient and explained everything well!

I've been on two separate occasions once for the Dragon Tower and another for the Travel Paradox. The price is reasonable for an escape room/ VR experience ($40 pp). The whole experience is about 45 minutes to an hour. There are boardgames for you to play if you want to stay longer.
The games do have similar feel to an escape room puzzle but with a video game capable element like magic.
One thing I did not enjoy was on both occasions someone's game pack ran out of batteries. One game, my hand controllers stopped working but we could not have known if it was part of the game or not, it was hard to get the attention of the staff.
They can't pause the game so I missed out on the cut scenes while waiting to get fixed. The staff did add on additional time but it takes away from the experience.
It'd also be nice if they offered to help take a photo of the experience. Definitely hard to do yourself once you're all geared up.
