Why Wireless VR are the Future of Escape Rooms
At Omescape we pride ourselves on being at the very front of technology and providing you with the best and most entertaining escape rooms and virtual reality concepts out there. Escape rooms are still a novel concept to many – but it’s an activity that isn’t going anywhere anytime soon! People love the inclusivity of it, the challenges involved and the fun it provides.
In recent years, VR has been added to the mix – giving us the chance to add in even more fun for you. If you haven’t tried a VR experience yet, what have you been doing? It’s the most fun you can have in gaming and escape rooms, and it makes an incredible group experience for birthdays, parties, get-togethers of work events.
So why is wireless VR the future of escape rooms? We explore the answers here…
Wireless VR Makes Everything more Real
Wireless VR is the ultimate way to fully immerse yourself in a new world, or new surrounding. It’s like stepping inside a video game, with all your friends there to experience it with you. It feels like it’s a reality, and you get to pretend it’s real for the time you’re in there. The VR headsets are wireless too, which means you’re not restricted in where or how far you’re allowed to walk… This is important because it gives you that extra layer of immersiveness, and it’s what makes the VR experience with Omescape so real.
It Transports You
When you put on that VR headset you transport together, with your group, into a new location (without actually going anywhere at all). There’s something magical about it – and we love seeing people’s reactions when they try it for the first time. The wireless functionality gives you the ability to roam freely, which adds to the experience even more.
There are no Limitations
With VR, your experience isn’t held back by anything. Not jet lag, or time travel, or even space travel. You could be on the moon, or back in time, or across the globe – all in an instant. Suddenly the whole universe is a possibility, and the narratives and stories that VR studios can create are endless.
It will Keep Experiences New and fresh
Traditional escape rooms are somewhat limited by the decor and furnishings in their escape rooms. Of course this is understandable, as with traditional escape rooms you strive to create a realistic and believable set in which to base the story of narrative of your escape.
With virtual reality however, the surroundings and the ‘set’ lives digitally and is created digitally. It means there’s a greater capacity for variations and changing up stories and narrations over time. All the creative opportunities wireless VR presents for studios and brands is incredibly exciting.
