FAQ

VR makes me sick. Is it for me?

No worries! Our Games are designed to avoid motion sickness. A common trigger for motion sickness comes from bad performance or low frame rate, issues have been accounted for when designing the game. Less than 1% of our players experience motion sickness.

 

I am not a gamer, is this experience for me?

Yes, 100%! This is not a video game. It is an intuitive experience made for everyone, from 12 to 82. If you know how to talk, listen, walk and grab objects, you have all the skills needed to make it. The experiences are none violent and focused on cooperation between players. Excellent for families! Perfect for corporate events.

 

Is the game good for Team Building?

It is made for teams! You cannot escape alone! You must work together, and everyone has a role to play. The key to success is to talk, listen and collaborate. And High Five when you are done!

 

I have the fear of heights, are these experience for me?

Your feet will always touch the floor, you are 100% safe, but your brain might think otherwise ☺ Our experiences can be challenging for people with strong fear of heights! But they are also amazingly rewarding when you go through!

 

Is the game tracking data?

Yes, the operator is tracking game sessions data (for example at what time a game starts, how long it takes to resolve each stage… ). The data tracked is never linked to any specific user. We do not have any user information.

Are there any restrictions to prevent me from experiencing VR?

There are no age restrictions for the use of the equipment but the VR headset manufacturers recommend 7 years plus because of a) the physical dimensions of the headsets and b) the fully immersive nature of the experience (which some younger children could find a little overwhelming). There are also some physical and mental conditions which could prevent you from being able to experience VR.

 

When should I arrive for my slot?

We need to give you a short introductory briefing to ensure your time in VR is the best it can be and safe too. The slots are not able to be easily moved,so We recommend you check in at least 15 minutes before your booking time to give you plenty of time.

I have Virtual Reality on my phone. Is this the same?

Phone based Virtual Reality is a very limited version of VR. To have the absolute best experience, you need a high-end computer, a large play space and special tracking for your headset and controllers. Our VR stations offer a completely new level of VR that you can’t get on your phone. Just like watching a movie on your phone isn’t as good as in a theater.

This depends on how long you’ve booked for. Some games we recommend a minimum of 60 minutes before you start. Some games allow you to continue your progress over multiple visits!
