Absolutely amazing!!! Staff is very helpful and friendly, when you need help theyll be right by your side - fair prices, and a great selection of games! Me and some buddies of mine just came back from playing Elven Assassin, Zero Caliber, Pavlov VR, and Furious Seas. Hard to beat for a fun night of family and friends!One thing to note though - dress lightly, you will be moving around quite a bit, and it can get pretty hot.Will definitely come back, and thank you so much to the staff for making this an outstanding first experience for me!

Both kids had a great time here, ages 8 and 5 with a ton of games for all age groups. The staff was super helpful with the youngest since he can’t read yet and helped find games he could figure out. 8 yo had no problems and played for an hour and a half straight, also wanted to know when we were coming back. Maybe next time I will reserve a booth for myself since neither of them will be sharing with me willingly.

When I weigh in, I try to consider all aspects of the business. This was a good experience, but I would not consider it to be a place that sets itself apart from other locations offering the same experience. The staff was knowledgeable with the games and patient with providing direction. However, I believe they were less knowledgeable with the gift certificates and aspects of the business that would make them look better prepared. I believe this is a lack of training and not so much an issue with staff.With the right training and welcoming atmosphere it could make it a notable experience.

We are not gamers, and my husband and I came to check out the experience. You get 15 minutes of play time. Our game didnt load. We wanted to play a 2 person game, and the staff member did not at all help us figure out how to make that happen, despite us requesting help. Long story short, our game never even started and my main complaint is with the staff member who ended up saying well why didnt you click the game, and play you wanted? It was literally right in front of you. I couldnt believe that someone in a customer service position would speak to customers that way. Ive never had such a poor customer service experience. I so wish I had taken his name downI do want to clarify that our 15 minutes ran out before the game started/loaded, and we didnt get to play at all. No refund for the time.EDIT: I would definitely commend a company that works hard to make a terribly unfortunate situation better. Thank you for reaching out, and thank you to the employee for the apology.

Had a good time playing Arizona Sunshine with my son. The price seems pretty high ($25/hour/person) but we enjoyed it and the staff was friendly.

Do not recommend. I’m guessing this business won’t be around for long. We used out Get Out Pass which gave us 15 minutes of free Vr. The employees offered little to no instruction or help. At one point when my wife was stuck unable to proceed I tried getting the attention of the female employee (who was walking around on Snapchat) to get her some help. Nope. Never looked up. This “business” needs to get some better employees if they want to stay open for long. We will definitely not be coming back.

Came here with my husband for the $60 date night they offer. Sounded like a great deal but there are a lot of kinks to work out with this place it seems like. The dinner they offer is a bbq dinner from the restaurant next door. We were told over the phone the dinner comes with entree and side, get to the place and are told sides aren’t included. No big deal, just a little miscommunication. We made our order and were told the food would be ready by the time we were done. We went into our VR rooms where we watched a tutorial and a timer for our hour of play began. A little into the tutorial we realized although my husband could hear me I couldn’t hear him. The connection couldn’t be solved so they moved him into another room. With assistance from the employees we tried to connect into a game to play together, after some time of trying multiple games and not connecting we got into a game together, then I was booted out. For the sake of play time we decided we’d just play separately. We both experienced games that just wouldn’t load and glitches while playing games. About halfway through our play time we were told actually the restaurant was closed and asked if we’d like some pizza instead. My husband declined and offered to pay just for the hour of play instead. Which ended up being $50 anyway. Everyone was really nice but in all, it seems like there’s a lot of miscommunication and problems to still work out here. With a timer counting down during all the issues, minimal playtime, and the oversight of not getting the meal we had ordered, it definitely wasn’t worth the price.

VR Tech is one of Treasure Valleys greatest gems. There are two families who co-own this place, and both are eager to befriend and encourage new players.The systems and play areas are well maintained. The prices are pretty fair - about the same as an escape room.I took my 9-year-old daughter in for an hour of play. We had a blast! We played games both with and against each other. All were age appropriate, wholesome games.The families and their children are excited to share VR gaming with you. Dont be shy - go support small businesses while discovering your newest hobby.Moms and Dads - take your gamer kidd here. Youll be surprised how much fun youll have and youll be the coolest ever!

Very good VR place. Lots of games and a very polite owner. My mother is handicap and he was very accommodating. She got to play for the first time and had a blast. Highly recommend this place for a few hours of fun.

I enjoy the company and the idea of the buisnews, however the times listed are not representative of when they are open. I showed up at 7:30pm on a Wednesday and they were closed.

It was ok. My husband and I went and I werent really impressed. The game kept glitching, and wouldnt let us pick stuff up, and every so often everything would fly to the ceiling. I dont feel like any one there were helpful, because when we asked or yelled out no one helped. Also I could hear the people working there talking about the game. I couldnt tell if they were making fun of us or what. I probably wont be returning, I might give it another try later... Could just be a bad day. The one in Nampa is better. I feel they have way better customer service and guidance throughout the game.

Looking for something different to do? Want to get away without the expense of travel so to speak? VR Tech Lounge seems to be for everyone, even those who dont consider themselves a big gamer. I really enjoy getting to spend time with my family members (ages 20s-60s) at VR Tech Lounge. Our headsets are connected so we can strategize together playing Elvin Assasin or just share our experience while we try out other games individually. Like traveling? Take a guided helicopter ride around New York City. Check out Google Maps and feel like youre traveling the world. Like mountain climbing, explore Mt. Everest. Like drawing? Want to feel like youve got a jet pack on your back and can fly?Theres a game for that. Want to sit on the beach? Yep theres a way to do that too! If youve never experienced VR youre in for a treat! Theres so much to do for all interests! And last but not least, the staff is wonderful and are so helpful. They do a great job ensuring that you have the best time!

This place was pretty awesome! Wife took me on a surprise date. Weve never done VR before and theyre pretty good with helping you out. The game you play to warm up is pretty fun and gets ya acclimated to the experience.We chose Ready Player One: Battle for the Oasis as our main game. It was a lot of fun. Makes me want to buy a VR headset myself. I did have a small headache going in but it didnt bother me. There was a point in the game where we could move in various ways and one of the ways actually disoriented me and I felt a slightly sick after.Despite it... I wanna go back!Guess they have over 700 games. They have like 50 or something pre-loaded but you can look at their site at all the games and if theres a specific one you like you can call them up and make sure its loaded on the day you schedule.Wife says if you go on a weekday you can do a date night package deal thing. For $50 you and your date could get BBQ in the same strip mall and have an hour VR session.Highly recommend going to this place!

This is THE BEST VR experience in the Treasue Valley! You need to check it out now. Awesome game choices, food options, friendly and knowledgeable staff. Their prices are very reasonable and the location is very easy to get to, right off of the Ten Mile exit in Meridian. We never felt rushed and felt very welcome. The staff easily set us up in single and multi player games and gave us game suggestions, also just let us explore all of their content. A+++

I didn’t think VR would be any funner than a regular video game but I have enjoyed a lot of the games and it is a whole new experience. If your looking for a fun group activity this is this place.

We had my sons 12th birthday party here, and it was sooooo awesome! They were so helpful and patient with the kids. They furnished the pizza and cupcakes, and cleaned up afterwards! And for the adults, if you want a nice relaxing time at a birthday party, this is the place. While all the kids are playing, the adults can talk in peace. It was one of the best birthday parties ive ever had for my son. And the best part is all the kids had a really fun time!

Best place in town to enjoy some virtual reality. The family that owns the gaming center gave me and my husband an awesome mothers day discount without us even asking. We had the best time and the prices are unbeatable when it comes to other virtual reality centers in the area. This place is definitely a real gem and we will be going back as soon as we can! It was by far the best gaming experience ive had definitely check out arizona sunshine if youre into first person shooting games or zombieeeeesss!
