Staff Service
Pros:
"Staff were kind, patient and professional! I’d give this more stars if I could."
"The lady who looked after us was so friendly and really made the experience."
"Staff, particularly Omar, had exceptional service."
"Our guide was friendly, and provided clear instructions and some decent game recommendations."
"Looking forward to returning soon. Omar & Jack - great staff members, very friendly & explained everything well."
"Special shout-out to Jack who I had lovely conversation with, Jack was knowledgeable and explained the technical side with great enthusiasm."
"The gentleman that guided us through was fantastic and gave great recommendations."
"Will and Cam were excellent hosts, they got our group of 4 settled in, walked us through tutorials."
Cons:
"Bit of a strange place to turn up to, as it seems to be a disused shopping centre."
"It was a bit tricky to find the parking if you don't know the area."
"My only disappointment was that the VR Ping Pong was only on one of the systems, meaning I couldn't play against my partner."
"Would have given 5 stars if the website was up to date."
"We did experience technical problems with the hardware."
"The Plank was by far my most intense."
"Enjoyed Zombie survival mode and Archery. Rooms were clean and the time flew by quite quickly. Would have given 5 stars but blurriness of the VR system caused a bit of strain on our eyes."
VR Games and Experiences
Pros:
"The range of games were really fun. Great first time doing a VR."
"The games were epic and the staff, particularly Omar, had exceptional service."
"Matrix provided a decent range of VR games of varying difficulty and genre."
"The room itself looks quite ordinary but the magic starts when the VR headsets are on & you are transported into different worlds."
"They keep the equipment clean. Definitely a go to for newbies to VR all the way up to expert."
"Really great. Omar our host was kind, patient and calm in the face of 3 complete novices."
"Such a huge collection of games to choose from to play."
"On entry, and anticipating an arcade setting, we were surprised to find what appeared to be more akin to an office suite."
Cons:
"I just wish in the zombie game, moving around in the VR was available."
"Unfortunately Dan got a kick in the shin from me when he was helping me with my gun (a zombie came up to me)."
"The driving simulator was also interesting but some of us felt a bit dizzy from it."
"The experience was much better than expected, I have previously tried various 'off the shelf' devices, but these professional sensor based systems offer something extra."
"The zombie game was scary fun. Big shout out to Cameron. Very thorough with his guidance."
"They were very knowledgeable about their games and were able to offer sound sensible advice to help me to decide which ones would be suitable for him to play."
"Would have given 5 stars but blurriness of the VR system caused a bit of strain on our eyes."
"We played a few games, they were interactive and you got a good experience of shooting a bow and arrow, shooting a pistol at zombies, driving etc. But in my opinion the games could have been more exciting."
