BENEFITS OF VIRTUAL REALITY
The benefits of virtual reality are immense. It helps to reduce stress and relax and provides you fun and entertainment to enjoy yourself with friends, families, and colleagues. Because it is done indoors, you are not at the mercy of Melbourne weather to determine if you are going to have fun or not.
In a VR Escape Room, you can start from the point you left the previous time in case you did not complete the mission. Unlike physical escape rooms, in VR escape rooms you need to remember where you left off on a particular escape room mission. At Apsis VR, the game master will advance you to that point.
Virtual reality games provide you with a lot of fun and excitement. For those who want to have adventurous experiences with shooting and sports, there are plenty of choices.
WHAT DO YOU DO IN A VIRTUAL ESCAPE ROOM?
At Apsis VR, you will be provided a physical area of 3×3 to stand and move around, giving you the freedom of movement. Your VR headset will display your virtual world, and you will see your teammates as avatars, and you will hear your team members. In the virtual world, you are together to solve your virtual reality mission.
In a virtual escape room, you would use your VR headset and VR controllers to point and click to move around in the escape room; controllers can be used to pick objects, unlock doors, climb walls, etc. Unlike physical escape rooms, in virtual escape rooms you would be able to do much more ambitious activities as it is not dependent on your physical ability. It provides you a safe space to try more daring tasks.
In a VR escape room, your virtual world is your physical escape room. Your physical space you stand in is called the virtual room.
So don’t worry, please book now, as our game masters will explain everything to you before and during your experience. We are here to help everyone have their best time in our virtual rooms to give you the best chance to enter the mission with confidence.
