Escape Room Alternative: VR vs Bowling & Laser Tag
Published
Last updated
Your group has solved the escape room, bowled the lanes and run the laser tag arena. Now you need an escape room alternative that feels different. Here’s how immersive VR compares with each one for groups and birthdays, and which fits your group best.
Key Takeaways
Choose VR when your group wants something new each visit, with a different world in every experience and Jumanji: The Lost Levels arriving on 4 December.
Choose VR for birthdays when everyone can get involved: up to 8 play in the arena while the rest follow each player’s view, the leaderboard and the live action.
Pick Sol Raiders, Undead Arena or Space Marine VR for laser tag energy and bragging rights for the top score.
Escape Rooms vs VR for Groups
Once your group has solved a room, that room is done. As an escape room alternative, immersive VR keeps the teamwork and adds movement, with a new world each visit. To see all the options, check out these group activities that aren’t escape rooms or bowling.
Why choose VR over an escape room:
New worlds to visit: A zombie-overrun city inOutbreak, a tropical island inFar Cry VR.
Whole-body teamwork: Walk, duck and talk to each other as avatars.
Something new on 4 December:Jumanji arrives at every venue, a brand new story starring you and your crew.
Bowling vs VR for Birthday Parties
At a birthday, the aim is to keep every guest involved. In bowling, several lanes run at once so a whole group can play together. At Zero Latency VR, up to 8 players are in the arena at a time. Guests on the sidelines can track scores and follow their team’s climb on the live leaderboard. Check theage and height requirements for your venue before booking.
Why choose VR for a birthday:
A spectator view: Watch each player’s view as they play.
A leaderboard: Follow the scores as the group plays.
Live in the arena: What your friends are doing is entertaining to watch.
Laser Tag vs VR for Groups
Laser tag and Zero Latency VR both keep a group running, ducking and reacting from start to finish, and VR moves that energy into a tennis-court-sized arena. For a team outing, our guide toteam building with Zero Latency VR covers what to expect.
Top 3 experiences for laser tag fans:
Sol Raiders: the team-rivalry pick. Two teams race to capture the most objectives over three rounds.
Undead Arena: the party pick. Take on zombies and each other, with the highest score winning bragging rights.
Space Marine VR: the all-action pick. Become a genetically enhanced Space Marine and defeat alien swarms in epic battles.
Which Activity Fits Your Group?
Match the activity to the mood of your group.
Friends who have done every escape room in town: Pick anyZero Latency VR experience, since every experience has its own setting.
A birthday with mixed ages: Ask your venue about group sizes and which experience suits the youngest guest.
A team outing: Choose between rivalry and teamwork, then ask your venue about group bookings.
Book Zero Latency VR for Your Next Group Night
Give your crew an escape room alternative they’ll still be talking about next week. Get your friends on board, pick an experience and see who takes the top score. For a birthday, team outing or night out,find a venue andbook online early.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is a good escape room alternative for a group that has done them all?
Immersive VR, axe throwing, mini golf and bowling all suit groups who have finished their local escape rooms. Zero Latency VR is the option where the whole group moves through the same world together, and our guide togroup activities that aren’t escape rooms or bowling has more ideas to compare.
Can we book Zero Latency VR for a birthday party?
Yes. Zero Latency VR takes birthday party and private event bookings at its venues. Ask your nearest venue what is included and which dates are open, and mention the age of the youngest guest so they can confirm the age and height requirements.
Which Zero Latency VR experience works best for a team outing?
Singularity suits teams who want to work together: the group takes back a space station from an AI that has taken control, and it cannot be won alone. Sol Raiders suits teams who want a winner. Ask your venue about group bookings, and see ourteam building guide for more on what to expect.
Do you need VR experience to play Zero Latency VR?
No VR experience is needed. Your body is the controller, so you walk through the arena in a wireless headset and react to what is around you. The controls are easy to learn for everyone, which is why groups with mixed experience can play the same session together.
