Solve mysteries, fight zombies, escape from a pyramid and explore new lands with VR World. Once you’re geared up with a VR headset and controllers, you’ll need to work with your teammates as you search for clues and solve puzzles before the time runs out.
If you’re new to the world of virtual reality, Escape The Lost Pyramid is a good place to start. In a team of up to four players, you will have to overcome elaborate obstacles and deathtraps using your wits and physical skills as your search for a missing pyramid and uncover the secret treasure hidden within it.

With over 40 game chambers and seven game themes for you to choose from, Xcape is the country’s largest escape room.
If you’re a fan of horror and hauntings, Annabelle (which involves a cursed doll) and The Morgue (where you break into the creepiest place in a hospital) will certainly test your nerves—but don’t say we didn’t warn you.
The Escape Artist

If you prefer your escape room to come with a side of VR, The Escape Artist has got you covered with three virtual rooms.
