Common questions

Free-roam VR puts the group inside a shared virtual space and lets them walk through it — no controllers tethered to a console, no standing in one spot. Sessions run short by design, usually thirty minutes to an hour, and the format suits groups that want something indoors and weather-proof. More about VR.

Which VR place is right for us?

7 venues to choose from. Two questions cut that in half in about a minute: how many people are coming, and does the group want a roof over their heads. Everything else — price, rating, amenities — is already on the cards, so you can compare without opening ten tabs. More opens the full listing with the address and phone number.

What are the prices here?

The lowest entry price here is $5 per person, at Urban Air Trampoline and Adventure Park Sterling Heights. Every card shows a starting price the same way, and starting is the operative word: it covers the simplest package, usually one game and basic rental. The final number depends on group size, how many rounds you play, and the day of the week — weekdays are cheaper almost everywhere, and groups of ten or more usually get a better rate per head.

What happens if it rains?

Indoors only . Rain, heat and daylight hours stop being part of the planning, and the game itself is closer-quarters and faster than an outdoor field.

Can we hold a birthday party here?

Birthdays are a large part of what these venues do: 7 of them have something for it — Birthday Packages — 5 venues, Party Room — 4, Party Host — 2. Booking one is usually a package rather than tickets, so the per-head price looks different from the walk-in rate on the card. Confirm the age minimum for the game itself, which varies more than people expect.

Can we get food and drinks there?

7 of the venues here have food or a place to sit: Lounge Area — 7 venues, Soft Drinks — 2. For a party that matters as much as the game — the game takes an hour, the rest of the afternoon happens around a table.

Is there anything else to do there?

Other attractions are at 4 of them: Arcade — 2 venues, Go-Karts — 2, Escape Rooms — 2. Worth filtering for if the plan is an afternoon rather than an hour.

What should we expect when we get there?

On-site facilities at 7 of the venues: On-Site Referees — 7 venues, Gear Rental — 3. Small things, but they decide how the hour after the game goes. Each card carries the same icons, so you can scan the list without opening anything.
