Our game library consists of more than 45 different games and experiences. There are a lot of options suitable for each age group of our clients.

In order to prevent our younger clients from accidentally picking unsuitable content for them (horror, violent, bloodshed games), we block some of the games for each booking based on the age group of the client.

The age limits vary as following: 7+, 12+ and 18+ years old, and help us to handpick experiences appropriate for each client.

If a client asks for a particular game that is hidden under the age limit, our team is always consulting with parents/guardians prior to provide access to the game.

VR headsets allow a user to play with the reading glasses on. However, some of the glasses won’t fit in a headset or you might find it a bit uncomfortable. Thus, we suggest to try it with and without and see which option works best for you BUT for the best experience we recommend to wear contact lenses.

At Gobo VR Hub we can accommodate most mobility, skill and cognitive levels for a range of guests, our hub and each VR booth is wheelchair accessible. However, please notice that for the optimal VR experience a user requires to move head and neck, and use at least one arm to interact with environments. 

We also suggest consulting a doctor before making a reservation, if you have:

– pre-existing serious medical conditions (ex. high blood pressure, heart ailment)

– conditions that may affect your ability to safely perform physical activities

– psychiatric conditions ( ex. post-traumatic stress disorder or anxiety disorders) 

or if you are pregnant or elderly.

You should also avoid using VR if you are fatigued, sick or under the influence of intoxicants/drugs, as it may exacerbate your condition.

In 99% it is not the case, but if you start feeling uneasy during your session, please take off the VR goggles and inform our staff member promptly.

It is highly doubtful, as you will have a perfect sense of where you are located in a real space during your experience.  

While using the VR, you will have a projected blue hologram of the obstacles (such as walls people, chairs) inside the game. Should you exit the playing zone, the hologram will turn red, which will be an indicator for you to step back.

Virtual Reality (VR) is the use of computer technology to create a simulated environment. Unlike traditional user interfaces, VR allows placing the user inside an experience. Instead of viewing a screen in front of them, users are immersed and able to interact with 3D worlds with the use of special goggles strapped to the face and hand controllers.

Virtual Reality is easy to use, our team will help you set up and get familiar with the VR environment, and our large selection of virtual experiences and games.

To get started, you can check out our Activity Guideline section and have a look at the games menu.

Each type of VR experience is equipped with a different type of HTC Vive virtual reality equipment.

Even though there are a few major players on the market rights now, HTC Vive is considered a leader in full immersion VR experiences, and it is the main reason why we made this choice.
