TOPIC: OT: Review of VR Dungeon at New York Harry Potter store

OT: Review of VR Dungeon at New York Harry Potter store 1 year 3 months ago #1

New York City’s Harry Potter store has two Virtual Reality adventures. I went on both yesterday.

The more Dungeon-like is called “Chaos at Hogwarts.” You pay $74, reserve a time slot (recommend doing so well ahead of time), and go in with either a party of 4 (maybe up to 6?) or as part of a PUG. There are multiple virtual rooms with a boss fight at the end, casting spells is with a simple arm/wrist motion. You are actually walking through the scenery, though with lots of tight turns so you stay in the physical room. The run lasts about 15-20 minutes, and it’s best to go in with a party that communicates/cooperates and at least one person who knows the names of different Potterverse spells and what they do. No live actors, it’s all recorded VR with different endings depending upon whether your team accomplished the room's goal within its time limit.

My reaction at the end was “That was a great Dungeon run – will have to come back again now that I know the rooms! I think I know how to handle the xxxxx!”

The other VR adventure was “Wizards Take Flight.” It had more of a park adventure ride feel – you ride/steer a broom and blast foes while not blasting your teammates too badly in your enthusiasm. It was shorter than the Chaos run – maybe 10 minutes. It was good, definitely worth it, but Chaos run was great – though maybe I’m just a Dungeon fan.

That sounds AWESOME. Definitely would love to see that type of adventure turned into an Online RPG
