This was great! They are easy to find in town and they have a nice office to entertain you. Plenty of space with the best in technology. They even took the time and effort to make sure we were well instructed and confident before using the equipment. had a great range of titles available for us to try out. Would definitely go back if we go back to Athens.

Great experience and a big variety of games, for just €12/hour. It was my friend's first time trying VR and we ended up spending 2 hours here. They also have multiplayer games.

Me and my girlfriend was getting a bit tired of the Athens 40 degree heat and looked for an indoor activity. We found this VR thingy and I thought I have always wanted to try it. Took the creepy elevator next to an kebab place (not easy to find) got in to a modern establishment with a super friendly host. Got great instructions and me and my girlfriend played for 2 hours, and could have kept on playing for longer if we weren't hungry. 😄

Very central location next to Monastraki square, building is unremarkable, but take the lift to the 3rd floor and get surprised: a white, very modern & hi-tec space, with a large video wall playing game videos, very clean.
The personnel very helpful and once we started we were amazed: we thought ‘room-scale’ virtual reality is something like the VR goggles they advertise everywhere. Not true! They transported us into other places and planets.
We flew to the moon with the Apollo mission, climbed Everest, killed scores of zombis and destroyed spaceships. There was an archery game, where you aim at a bunch of small cartoons in which I got addicted. Amazing staff! The kids went crazy painting in VR, entered the human body with a small spaceship travelling in the arteries, and played a game with music and paintball-like spheres synced to the beat of the music.
Great experience and highly recommended!

This place is amazing, a real discovery ! It is a very fresh and stylish place with a super high tech feel that I didn't expect to find above a souvlaki place on the 3rd floor. The moment you step inside the lounge, your mood changes. The service was very good and the VR games were amazing and the experience of Virtual Reality in itselve was even better than what I expected !!! I am looking if there is similar place in my town!

We loved the VR Project!!! The games were fantastic, but our special favourite was Job Simulator. We could have spent hours playing, and were super disappointed to find our hour was up :(.
What an incredible price for such a cool activity, and we're now looking into buying our own VR headset. The staff were very friendly, although it was a little hard to find.
