What Is a Traditional Escape Room?
Traditional escape rooms are physical spaces where players solve puzzles using props, hidden clues, locks, and teamwork. They’re immersive and fun — but often limited by the room size, physical setup, and prop-based gameplay.
What Is a VR Escape Room?
VR escape rooms, like those at VR Escapism, immerse you in hyper-realistic digital worlds using virtual reality headsets. Think ancient temples, deep space missions, and time-traveling adventures — all with full-body free-roam movement and multiplayer collaboration.
