Choice-driven VR: shooters, adventures and escapes

Light Floor: a short, high-energy session
Each booking includes a focused 20-minute block in the Light Floor arena described as 'fast and furious' activity to follow the main VR session.
Party room, catering and cake
The package moves into a party room (2 hours provided, available 30 minutes before the booking start) with delivered food — pizza, hot dog, chips, drink and ice cream — plus a large rainbow cake with candles and party bags.
