Virtual Reality Escape Room: Atlantis VR in Barcelona

Q: How many players can take part in Atlantis VR?

Atlantis VR is designed for teams of 2 to 8 explorers. As this is a cooperative underwater expedition, coordination is vital: you will need to share out the tasks to investigate the ruins and decipher the technology of the lost city before your oxygen supply runs out.

Q: How long does the Atlantis VR experience last?

The main dive into the underwater temple lasts exactly 60 minutes. The total time of the activity, which includes the initial decompression (safety briefing), preparing the diving suits (fitting the Quest 3 headset) and the final photo session, is approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes.

Q: What difficulty level does Atlantis VR have?

Atlantis VR has a difficulty of 6 out of 10. It strikes the perfect balance: it offers stimulating intellectual challenges through ancient energy mechanisms and abyssal logic puzzles, but it remains accessible to beginners in virtual reality and to family groups.

Q: What is the minimum age to play Atlantis VR?

The minimum age is 10. It is a fantasy adventure suitable for all audiences, ideal for birthdays, corporate events or family afternoons. Minors must be accompanied by, or have the authorisation of, a parent or guardian.

Q: Is Atlantis VR scary or claustrophobic?

No, not at all. Unlike horror rooms or damaged submarines, Atlantis is an adventure of exploration through majestic underwater temples lit by bioluminescence. The setting is spacious, fantastical and visually stunning. The only tension comes from the timer to complete the mission, not from scares.

Q: Do I need to book in advance?

Yes, it's highly recommended: afternoons and weekends fill up. Online booking is for 2 or more people; without a booking, or if you come on your own, you can just turn up and, if there's a free slot, you play. You can choose the adventure beforehand or decide when you arrive, as you prefer: you don't need to decide when booking. We send you the confirmation by email and it usually takes a couple of minutes. More on this: Write to us if you have any questions

Q: What does the Atlantis VR experience include?

It includes all the technical equipment: wireless Meta Quest 3 headsets (no cables or heavy backpacks), controllers and integrated headphones. You will also have a Game Master with you in real time, who will guide you if you get stuck on the puzzles.

Q: How much does the experience cost?

Prices start from €24.50 per person for 1 hour and from €48.50 per person for 2 hours, and may vary depending on the day, the time and the size of the group. For groups and celebrations — birthdays, stag and hen parties, companies or friends — there are packs from €315 for up to 8 people.

Q: Do I need previous experience with virtual reality?

No. Most people who come had never tried virtual reality before. Your Game Master explains the controls when you arrive and stays with you throughout the session. More about this: Most people arrive without having tried it

Question 12

Where are you and how do I get there?

Answer

We are at C/Viladomat 95, Barcelona (Eixample). The easiest way is to come by metro: Rocafort (L1), Urgell (L1), Sant Antoni (L2) or Poble Sec (L3), all about ten minutes' walk away. By bus, line V9 has a stop right opposite Virtua, and there are more lines along Gran Via and Sepúlveda. See on Google Maps More about this: See the map and address

Question 13

What languages is it available in?

Answer

The team speaks Spanish, Catalan and English. Most of the games are available in Spanish and English and, as the experiences are very visual and intuitive, language is rarely a barrier. More about this: Everything you'll be wondering about

Question 14

Is there parking nearby?

Answer

We don't have our own car park, but there are two public ones a couple of minutes' walk away: BSM Urgell and SABA Eixample. With a large group, the metro works out better. More about this: See the map and address

Question 15

Can I play if I wear prescription glasses?

Answer

Yes. The Meta Quest 3 headsets have enough room to be used with the vast majority of prescription glasses without discomfort. If yours are very large, contact lenses are more comfortable. More about this: Everything you'll be wondering about

Question 16

Are there any medical restrictions?

Answer

We don't recommend the experience to people with photosensitive epilepsy, who are pregnant or who have serious heart problems. If in doubt, write to us before booking and we will go through it with you. For accessibility needs, write to us beforehand and we will see how to adapt the experience. More about this: When we don't recommend it

Question 17

Can virtual reality cause motion sickness?

Answer

It happens to some people. The catalogue is chosen so that it doesn't: titles that move the camera for you, which are the ones that cause the most discomfort, are avoided. If you notice anything, the session can be stopped at any time. More about this: What happens to the body

Question 18

What technology do you use?

Answer

We use Meta Quest 3 headsets: they are wireless, with no cables and no computer, and they track your movements, so you move freely in your 3×3 m box. We provide the headphones ourselves to improve immersion. More about this: What virtual reality is

Question 19

Is VR safe for children?

Answer

Meta recommends these headsets for ages 10+, and that is our limit. Every hour booked is 60 minutes of play, and the Game Master is with the group for the whole session: if you notice anything, the session can be stopped at any time. Some adventures require a higher age, and each adventure's page says so. More about this: From age 10, and with no upper limit

Question 20

How is VR different from a normal video game?

Answer

In a video game you look at a screen and use a controller. In VR you're inside the game: you turn your head and see the world around you, you really walk and you use your hands to interact with objects. Your brain processes the virtual environment as if it were real — that's why the adrenaline, the laughs and the immersion are incomparable. It's the difference between watching a film and starring in it. More about this: It's not a video game: you're inside it
