Booking

Can I just play the VR games?

Absolutely, all you have to do is purchase the games and time slots you want to play. We have VR pods with 20+ games available and also three VR arenas where you can play alongside your friends. Just make sure you select the correct VR type when booking.

What’s the difference between the karts?

There are three differences between the karts: 1) Reduced speed is a slower race with restricted speed. This is ideal for our younger guests or those who want to build up their confidence. 2) Gaming style - think Mario Kart! This is a fully immersive and interactive multi-level race track. Battle it out for victory and leave the losers in your dust. 3) Full speed races have no restrictions and are aimed at confident adults.
