We all know that the weather in Belgium is not always top. However, this does not stop most people from playing a city game outside. But we can understand that on a cold rainy day it is less fun to experience an outdoor activity with your colleagues or friends. We have a solution for that! We also have indoor activities: virtual reality games!
How does a VR game work?
It is very easy to play a VR game. You just choose one of our VR games and book it. Each game has a different theme and a different difficulty level. After you booked the game, we provide all the necessary equipment and send a gaming guide to your location. This can be a restaurant, a meeting room in your company building, a house, … For each group we provide VR glasses, various puzzles and in case of our VR game Excalibur also a set-up with monitor through which you can look into the virtual world. Then the gaming guide gives a technical explanation about the VR glasses and the rules of the game. After this, it’s finally time to play the game!
We have a wide arsenal of VR games. For example, we have 2 VR games inspired by a popular Netflix series: La Casa de Dinero and Squad Game. We also have a high-end virtual reality game where the puzzles and layout are next level, if you want this you best choose Excalibur. But in all these games the concept is the same: one person per group puts on the VR glasses and describes what he sees to the rest of the team. Using a controller, this person can move in the virtual world as well as move objects or open things. The other players also have an important task, they have to use the information they get from the person with the glasses to find the right puzzle on the table and solution! Only with good communication and cooperation skills, the teams will succeed in completing the levels. If they can complete a level, they will be asked to pass the VR glasses to another player on their team.
What does the gaming guide do?
During the game the gaming guide is always present. Besides setting everything up at the beginning and giving a (technical) explanation, he also helps the teams through the game. He keeps an eye on the teams and, if necessary gives cryptic tips to help the teams along. Even when there are logistical problems, the gaming guide immediately resolves them. With so many different VR games, it is thus perfectly possible to organize a warm winter team building!
