What an awesome spot!! Super friendly staff, perfectly done facility, and we felt so spoiled for our birthday party reservation, and comfortable pricing for all we received. We HIGHLY recommend and will be back many times in the future. Thank you Another World!!!
We had an amazing time at this VR arena! The experience was incredibly fun, and the staff was excellent?friendly, accommodating, and eager to help. They even have a party room, making it a great spot for birthdays and group events. It's an activity that all ages can enjoy! I brought my 15-year-old and a couple of their friends, and they had an absolute blast. My husband and I loved that we could watch the gameplay in real time on the TV screens, which made it even more exciting. Highly recommend for anyone
Super friendly and clean atmosphere. The boys had a lot of fun. Coming from Osceola WI to hang out for the weekend this place was perfect. Lots of laughs and videos. Great family experience
Great experience! Clean facility, very friendly personnel. Will definitely be planning future parties.
Super fun! Very cool environment. Knowledgeable, helpful, & staff. Definitely recommend for a family game night.
We brought our youth group here and we had an awesome experience! The staff were great and our students had a great time with the games. We will come back!
Greeted by stuff when we entered! They explain to me and my partner what was going to happen. They had different opinions to the VR. 10/10 would go back!
I went with some people from my job, we played the Zombie Invasion Shooter game and had THE BEST time! The game was so exciting and the staff was so nice, funny, and helpful. We will definitely recommend this to everyone and be back again soon!
Today was my first time coming to another world and I can't wait to come back. The staff were great and it's very easy to use. No previous VR experience is needed. I can see why this would be great for a group of people or a work gathering. It was so much fun.
My boyfriend and I went here and did the Zombie game and it was amazing!!! The people were so nice in getting us set up. The place was clean as well. We personally love to move our bodies so this was a great experience to stay active during a date night. I was literally sweating! Highly recommend and I can't wait to bring all of our friends here!
Everyone was super friendly, the place was very neat and clean and we had a great time with some friends, many different game options for all ages and they were very accommodating. Definitely will be coming back, great place for some weekend fun and the immersion in game makes you feel like you are really in the game, overall 10/10.
This place is great. My kids age 4-11 and myself had a blast. If your kids like video games this place is awesome. We just came as a family but they also have birthday parties too.
This place is like another world. ?? My son and I showed up with no reservations and the wonderful man working there got us right in. We played safe night and it was awesome. So much fun and a bit of cardio also with the pace of the game. Highly recommend for the whole family. What a bargain at only 40 dollars. Awesomeness
Had a wonderful experience! Kids birthday party for ages 7-10 years went off without a hitch. Staff made everything so easy and were very accommodating with a few kids showing up a bit later. Couldn't recommend more!
This was SO incredibly fun! I wish I could have kept playing and playing. I've never done anything like it - it was so immersive I had to do more than a couple double takes. Also, it REALLY feels like you're moving! I can't wait to go again. DEFINITELY check this place out if you get the chance!
We had an absolute blast last night!!! Highly recommended for all ages. We have a family member who is disabled and in a chair. They were so accommodating and kind to his struggles! This place has a great, safe, and fun environment! Don't forget the hearts of the people running it as well super generous and kind!! Will definitely be back!!
Another World in Rochester, MN is THE BEST place for any team, work group, family/friend activity for sure! My team and I enjoyed our time there and many have already said they will be going back - it's only been 2 hours since we left! The owners are extremely helpful, had great communication, and went above and beyond to ensure we had a great experience. There was plenty of room to play, see what the players could see on a screen in the lounge, and even an activity waiting room with Foosball and a gaming s
Awesome quality and transfers you into a whole new world. Plenty of room to run and great for all ages. If you need team building exercises, this would be fun to do as well
What an amazing time! Grab everyone you know and enjoy this virtual reality experience. So much fun for all. Party room available and comfy seating for those not participating, but want to watch. Highly recommend and will definitely go back.
I took my son and three of his friends here to kick off a sleepover. They had an absolute blast! I realize now I didn't catch his name, but the gentleman working was extremely friendly, helpful, and most importantly, very patient with four rambunctious nine year olds. I know we will be going back again and I would definitely recommend it if you're looking for a fun gaming activity in Rochester.
It took a game to get used to everything but it was a blast! My husband, son, and I went on a night where no one else was there. The staff was really nice. We'll be doing this again!
So fun!!! This place is really cool. You actually walk around with your group in augmented reality. Great staff made it super easy to get our 3 rowdy boys right into the game! We will be back!
Awesome time! So much fun, the time flew by! I felt very immersed into the game. I'm definitely going to have my son's birthday party there. 1-19-24. Just a follow up! My son just had his 8th birthday party there with his friends and it was great! The staff did awesome with the 10 kids and they had a awesome time. Watching the kids play around in the VR area was hilarious and fun!
We went with 4 friends and we had an extremely fun time, the open area allows for some running, and crawling, crouching, a lot of free movement. We had a blast!
We brought a large team in and it was really fun. Alex and the staff were really helpful and everyone had a great time, even folks who hadn't planned on playing got in on the action. I would happily come back here again!
The kids all had a great time and the employees were very helpful! Highly recommend for a birthday party!
Surprisingly fun!! Never thought vr could be so fun with friends but it was nice to mess around and enjoy! Highly recommend. 10/10 experience :)
We did this experience for a birthday party and it was great! Several of us were beginners at games and still were able to participate and have fun! They were good at prompting and were very accommodating to our needs.

Fantastic!! So fun!! Great Mother?s Day adventure!! This would be great for team building and family events!!
Had an absolute blast! The people there are so friendly and helpful!! Definitely will be back!! What an experience!
I had the most incredible experience with my friends at Another World. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, guiding us through the setup process and offering suggestions for immersive experience. Definitely got my cardio work for the night playing a co-op zombies game. If that's not your thing, they have tons of other game options for kids too. You won't be disappointed!
Such a blast!! I'm blind as a bat but it was a blast shooting blindly while defending the family from zombies ?? Great place for teens with friends or family!!
I did the Safe Night experience with my girlfriend and it was so fun! The staff here are super friendly and kind. If you're considering giving VR a try, definitely try this place!
Did Safe Night with friends and had an absolute blast! Would highly recommend for a fun night out with friends and family :)
Took the kids there just to check it out. We had such a blast! Staff there were very kind and helpful. We will be returning.

Wow this was intense! Will be back! My mom and I killed zombies had a blast and she doesn't even play video games.
Great option for parties and all ages!
It was a hoot! My crew age range is 30-50 and thought maybe it wouldn't resonate but it did! So fun!

It was really fun, I can't wait for more games with better detail in the future as vr progresses.
First time experience with VR and it was a great time for my whole party of 8. The games were fun with more room to move around in than what I'd expect. The staff were super friendly and It was a great place to host a birthday.

It’s a mix of nostalgia and high-energy fun! Many arcades blend retro classics like Pac-Man and pinball with modern VR games, racing simulators, and rhythm challenges — often with music, lights, and a social vibe.
Both can be great! Solo visits let you focus on your favorite games, while going with friends adds competition, teamwork, and laughs. Many people plan arcade meetups as a casual hangout or even date spot.
Usually just yourself and a way to pay (some arcades still use coins, others use cards or apps). If you're competitive, bring your A-game. If you're social, bring friends or meet new ones over multiplayer games.
Weekdays or early afternoons are usually less crowded — perfect for focused play. Evenings and weekends bring the buzz, especially at barcades or venues with DJs, tournaments, or themed nights.
Absolutely! Arcades attract a mix of casual players and serious gamers. Whether you're jumping into a four-player co-op or chatting between rounds, it's a fun, low-pressure way to connect over shared interests.
Not at all. While many arcades are family-friendly, there are also adult-oriented ones with full bars, 18+ nights, or vintage nostalgia themes. Arcades today cater to everyone — from first-timers to lifelong gamers.
Yes! Many arcades host regular competitions, retro nights, cosplay parties, and more. Whether you're into high scores or just want to watch and vibe, events add an extra layer to the experience.
No worries — arcades are about having fun, not being perfect. Try a variety of games, ask others for tips, and remember: the vibe is more “let’s play” than “let’s win.”
Yes, virtual reality (VR) games in arcades are a top attraction in 2025! Titles like Beat Saber and Half-Life: Alyx deliver immersive thrills with cutting-edge headsets, motion tracking, and responsive controllers. High-resolution displays and spatial audio create heart-pounding experiences, from slashing rhythms to battling zombies. Arcades feature multiplayer VR zones and tournaments, fostering lively communities. VR booths are regularly packed, proving their captivating, next-level gameplay makes them a must-try arcade experience.
