The Four Kingdoms is a family favorite: a medieval castle where you unite the kingdoms with all electronic puzzles. The Wood Shed has you escaping a serial killer's cabin before he returns (fair warning: multiple jump scares). Jack the Ripper and Mystery in Chinatown are made for smaller groups.
Book Escape Room View All Rooms →Most VR puts you in a chair. Free roam VR is different. You put on a wireless headset, grab a controller and physically walk through the game with your group in a 550 sq ft arena. No cables, and your real steps match what you see.
Because you walk instead of being pushed around by a joystick, most guests feel completely fine. Every session is private for up to 4 players, ages 7 and up.
