KEEP TALKING AND NOBODY EXPLODES VR EXPERIENCE
Looking for something to do with your friends? Bring a team and try to diffuse a (virtual) bomb. One team member will don the Virtual Reality gear and manipulate the bomb while the rest of the team reads the manual on how to diffuse it. Trick is, the person in VR can't see the manual and the rest of the team can't see the bomb. Recommended team is between 2 and 8 people. The team member(s) that will be wearing the VR set must be 13 or older and fill out a release form. The release will be emailed with your confirmation for a spot. Once you have your team together, you must reserve your spot online. Registration will open one month before. Space is limited, so reserve early, but please release your spot if you can no longer make it.
Monday, May 15 - Saturday, May 20, during open hours
