Frequently Asked Questions

What is Virtual Reality?

Virtual Reality is a computer-generated environment that lets you interact using your body. When equipped with a VR headset and motion controls, you are transported to a new world.

Can anyone play?

VR is incredibly intuitive, people who wouldn't normally consider themselves gamers find they can easily pick up and play most games since it naturally responds to their actions.

If it's your first time in VR, we recommend checking out the games menu and choosing a few games with an "Easy" difficulty rating or try the interactive tutorial to get started.

What Hardware does The VR Club Use?

We’ve been operating since 2018 with the classic HTC Vive, but have now fully upgraded to more modern high-resolution VR equipment, custom modified Oculus Quest 2 headsets.

Once you try wireless VR it’s impossible to go back to a tether! Walking around the room is the best way to experience virtual reality.

Any Safety Precautions?

If you have any health problems, please review your conditions with our hosts prior to your session. If you feel any dizziness or motion sickness we recommend taking a short break.

We always wipe down our headsets and controllers with alcohol wipes to ensure cleanliness and safe hygiene between bookings.

Please read our full terms and conditions for more information.

Do We Have Car Parking?

Yes! We have loads of free parking available right outside the door!

Can I Wear My Prescription Glasses?

Yes you can fit most eyewear inside the VR headsets. You won't be doing much reading in VR, if any, so we recommend trying without glasses at first, or wearing contact lenses for more comfort. 

How Many Games Can I play?

When booking you can select from a ‘game package’ for a collection of games to play. Check the game page details for more info, and we can recommend games when you arrive.

Any Age Restrictions?

VR is not suitable for children under 8 years old. This is due to the minimum distance between their eyes (known as IPD or interpupillary distance) is usually not enough for the 3D depth to be effective.

Though we can make exceptions for 7 year old guests at their 8 year old friend’s party!

We strive to maintain a safe environment for kids, in both the real and virtual worlds! Games which are age restricted are noted on the games menu.

What Games do you have?

We've selected a range of games for all ages and across genres. Check out our games menu for more info. We will be adding and refreshing our game library regularly so check back often!

Can I request a Game?

Yes you can, please email us to request a game.

While we will take all requests into consideration, we can not guarantee the game you request will be added to our library.

Announcements for new games will be made here at www.vrclub.co.nz and on our social media channels:
