Unlike your standard escape rooms that are relegated to the physical realm, Apsis uses virtual reality technology to transport its guests to insanely detailed worlds. Strap on the gear, take in the sights and solve rich, story-driven puzzles with your companions. Are you after a mystery where your mission could be to find a lost pyramid or the location of an ancient legendary ship? An adrenaline rush as you attempt to stop a nuclear attack or escape from a dilapidated cabin in the woods? Or perhaps you’re after something that visually astounds you, like entering the enchanted world of Alice in Wonderland.
Video games are fun and all, but it's hard to fully immerse yourself when the corners of your room are still visible on the periphery. If you're keen on a truly all-encompassing experience, give virtual reality a try. It's come a long way since the first headset was created in the late 1960's, when it was mainly used to provide training across skills like aviation and surgery. Now, you can visit one of these centres across Melbourne, strap on a headset and enter everything from cyberpunk universities and zombie apocalypses to racecar simulators and the surreal, mind-bending world of Alice in Wonderland.
