Was a lot of fun and was crazy how immersed you would get into what you were playing. I would definitely go again. The staff was helpful as well. Though I’d suggest going for an hour as 30 mins didn’t seem long enough. I only did the stand up games but some of my family did sit and play and said those were fun as well. Would love to have a party there sometime.

My 12 year old really enjoyed this! Seems like it would be a fun place for a birthday party. Will have to remember for future visits!

Greg and staff are absolutely amazing! They keep everything clean and sanitized and always have a smile! Price with a membership is for sure the best way to go. We visit at least 4x a month.

What an exhilarating and fun time trying something new with two other women. The man working there (Trevor)explained and helped all three of us every step of our encounter. Lots to choose from. Seated or standing. Looking for a fun time? Try Amped Reality out!

I came expecting to enjoy myself, and I was right: I loved every minute of it. They have a large selection of games, including all of the most popular VR titles. Very friendly and helpful staff help newbie gamers get the headsets fitted correctly, and get you accustomed to the controls. I wear glasses, and first tried the headset without them, but things were too fuzzy. I tried again with my glasses, and the headset fit around them with no problems at all.
The store itself appears very well designed. Each VR station has it's own large-screen TV so non-players can also enjoy seeing the player's progress. The store floor is broken up into 4 areas: 2 for standing and 2 for sitting with 6 or 8 stations in each area. They have 2 or 3 seating areas with tables behind the playing area. These are for birthday parties or maybe even for parents to sit & relax while their kids play.
I spent a little more than 2 hours playing, and wanted to keep going. I played a variety of games, and quickly found a few favorites: Beat Saber, The Climb, Superhot, and Spider-Man are all titles I will come back & play again. Other customers were really into ZomDay, and I could see & hear them experiencing closeups with zombies. I played the whole time standing up, but I think some players would prefer their seated games.
The way the store is designed, this destination is suitable for all ages.
I highly recommend!

Bringing VR to the masses. The atmosphere is an open space with a number of VR machines set up. They have 2 types stand up and sit down. The stand up games are the more robust fight games or sports. Sit down is more relaxed type games. They have about a dozen games for both. These are the considerably higher end models. Most of the games are very imersive. I found my hour flew by.
The only negatives are it's not cheap, $30 for an hour. They do have memberships. Also not great for people with glasses. Your face will get hot and your glasses will get foggy.
Overall a solid 4 stars. Would I return? Yes I would.
