Had a blast. VR went well despite me just goofing off aimlessly on Skyrim. Mainly killed time via Goat Simulator - it wasnt VR compatible, but playing on a big TV was great. My brother even joined in the fun

My 12 yr old loves it here. Workers offer great instructuon and set up gear. They even gave her a few minutes of free play to familiarize herself with the vr program.

This place is tons of fun. I have never tried virtual reality video games before. I put on the goggles and I really thought I was there inside the video game shooting a bow and arrow at huge monsters coming at me. It actually scared me at first. I only did it for about 15 or 20 minutes and it started to feel like fun exercise. You can buy 15 minutes at a time or 30 minutes or an hour or two of playtime. You can also buy a monthly membership with a minimum commitment of three months and play as much as you want. It seems like they have hundreds of games to choose from.

They wouldnt let my 8 year old cousin play because he is under 10. He has been there multiple times before today. We would have all played the same time for the normal about it would be for 30 minutes.

I finally came back and tried it for the first time and it was pretty amazing for a good VR experience. I did the John Wick game and it was fun. Handling was pretty tricky but you get used to it. They I would say anyone going for the first time to get a 30 minute segment. Allow yourself to get the hang of it then actually play the game you want without feeling rushed. They save you time so even if you only use 10 minutes. You can come back another day and play the rest of your 20 minutes you have left.

Good place. However, the membership system should be changed. Right now, for the price of 2 hours, you could get a month of free play. They need to have a section where only members play and a section for guests. Fun place though.

The price would seem overrated, unless you consider the money that has to go into this, means buying each game for every station. Its definitely not a cheap mans rig.On top of that, there are sometimes heavy waits, due to people breaking rules and equipment breaking. There are 6 total VR stations, and members get to play as long as they want, just as someone who paid can pay for more time to continue.The stations are truly on a first-come, first-serve basis, so one would have no right to complain about busy stations, which NORMALLY arent even an issue (recently 1-2 stations have been broke at a time.The only thing one could realistically be critical about is about 3 customer service issues; though if you can afford this, its worth the money for time you can spend having fun!-They need to listen to guest requests more. They have limited scoreboards, and dont consider buying multiple copies of popular games: So if the station its on goes out... you cant play it!-The prices are basically $5 per 10 minutes, with the only real incentive to not buy 2 hours of time. I understand they want people to sign up for membership (which they dont WARN is a 3 month commitment until youre about to pay). They should have bargains of some form, so 60 minutes is not about the same price as buying 5 minutes 12 times.-They recently adapted a policy where guests arent only not supposed to put the gear ON without help, but arent allowed to take it off on their own. While Ive spoken to management about this, and understand the concern about gear breaking, almost half their staff often is too caught up either talking to guests or amongst themselves at the desk, and you have to TAKE OFF the visor to know which way to yell, to ask them to take off the visor, anyhow! @_@Again, it is worth the money if you can spare it, but there is still some rough-around-the-edges design to their policies.

Its way too expensive for the length of time you get to play.
