Step Inside Amped Reality & Be Transported to an Out of This World Experience
As the seasons change and colder weather creeps in, most of us might be moving to indoor activities and might be on the lookout for indoor places to play.
Amped Virtual Reality will get you out of the house with their engaging activities and multiplayer games that you and your crew can play and enjoy together.
Don a headset and get your heart pumping as you scale cliffs in The Climb, step back in time and follow along the Apollo 11 mission, walk with the dinosaurs in Jurassic World: Blue, and so much more!
Read on to see what VR games you can find at Amped, learn about their VR escape rooms, and see how birthday parties work.
Find Activities for Every Age at Amped VR
You don’t need to be a video game enthusiast to enjoy your time here.
Amped VR is a hit with date night couples, company parties and birthday kids, even if they’ve never picked up a controller.
Swim with dolphins, travel the world, draw with light, go on a roller coaster, or be inside the MINECRAFT video game. With over 40 experiences to choose from, it’s the perfect place for anyone in your group.
Amped Virtual Reality is suited best for ages 4 – 104.
How VR Works: Don a Headset and be Pulled Into any Reality you Could Imagine
From the outside, Amped Virtual Reality looks like an average storefront in the Ridgemoor Plaza on 28th Street (just west of Woodland Mall).
Once you step in, though, you kind of feel like you’re in another dimension.
Their most popular offering is virtual reality games at individual stations. Lit by black light, there are two large rooms with several stations.
Stations are marked by white cubes for sitting (if you wish), a headset, and a large screen overhead.
The player wears the headset, and everyone else can watch their adventures on the large screen.
