My son had his 11th birthday party there and WOW! First, I could have as many as 12 total kids. The price was affordable (especially compared to other indoor play places) and they got to play two games - and we had the place to ourselves. Dora and Nicole were very helpful and encouraging for the kids (they are great with kids) when they played. They also decorated the place so I didn't have to worry about that - and provided plates, utensils and paper towels. I just showed up with cake and juice - and pick
We had an awesome time got my daughter?s birthday! Dora and Nichole were great host as well!! Everything was so fun and it was a plus to come in and not have to decorate!! We will be back again!! We loved the VR Escspe room!! So awesome
We loved it! This is our second time back and both times have been a fun and unique experience. We've done the Jungle Quest, Signal Lost, and Mission Sigma (I think that was the name lol). We completed Signal Lost in about 30 minutes and that is a medium level game so if good with puzzles try out a hard level. We'll definitely be back. You don't have to be tech savvy to play. Dora will show you what to do!
Exitus VR: Mind-Blowing Fun in Virtual Reality! If you've never tried VR, Exitus VR is the perfect place to jump in?and if you have, get ready for some of the best games out there. The setup is smooth, the gear is top-notch, and the experience? Absolutely unreal. The game selection is stacked, from heart-pounding shooters to brain-teasing escape rooms, so whether you're battling zombies or solving puzzles with friends, there's something for everyone. The staff is super friendly Dora The Explorer will make
We came with my 7yr old nephew to have our first VR experience. Dora was funny and helpful in guiding us through the controls. When we started, we did not know what to expect, but as we played it was completely immersive and incredibly fun! We will definitely be back!
It was so much fun! Dora our game guide was amazing too! Definitely would recommend and is definitely going back!
An awesome VR experience. The owner, Dora, assisted us professionally with setup and practice. The games was awesome. We played Island Survivors and I played single player Zombie survival. This is a definite RECOMMENDATION! ??????????
My husband and I played Cursed and the whole experience was incredible. Ms. Dora was fantastic and helpful throughout the whole process. Definitely recommend coming here!
We had so much fun. Dora was very helpful and nice. We didn't make it out but I had fun petting the animals and throwing watermelons at my family while they tried to figure out the puzzles!
Right off the highway so pay attention when getting closer to the location. Did the zombie apocalypse game in two players mode and it was amazing. You get an hour or so to clear the story mode? we did not! Have fun. Great place and the service was incredible. Would definitely recommend.
This is a fun and wonderful experience! My husband and I came here for my birthday! The owner Dora is very polite and even picked out a VR reality for us to try! Highly recommend this spot!!
This was something new and different. The virtual reality experience was so much fun for me, my partner and nephews who enjoyed since the beginning to the end. I would definitely recommend it to anybody who wants to do something completely different and have lots of fun. The place is very nice and clean. Go give it a try and live your own experience!
recently visited this gaming place. I am not a gamer and don't know how to play any gaming counsels, but it was an unforgettable experience! The setup was immersive, with masks and gear that made us feel like we were truly inside the game. The challenges were exciting and well-designed, offering a great mix of teamwork and individual problem-solving. Some parts required us to strategize and work together, which made it even more engaging. There were a few tricky moments where we needed the admin's assista
Exitus VR is definitely a place you need to visit while in Houston if you're looking for fun. Dora was an amazing host and we had an awesome time. So much fun!! Definitely need to visit this place!! I can't wait to go back on our next trip.
Pricey, super fun with a team and its almost as much fun to spectate.. they have to explain alot of stuff to the teams before the match starts and they will start without you!!... so don't be late!
We had our girl 10th birthday party here along with 5 of her friends. They had fun. It was good to hear and watch them interacting with each other in the group game setting, figuring out things and working together. It is a little pricey but I think it was worth it for them to experience something new.
Wow!!! Definitely an experience. Dora is amazing, fun, professional and well written experienced. The setup is cool, plenty of room for each team member and very well instructed, assisted when needed and a great fun time. I highly recommend for family, team of individual.
My wife and I had a blast at ExitusVR! We played the Rotten Apple-Zombies game and seriously didn't want it to end! It was our first time so it took a while to get used to all of the controls but once we did we were killing zombies left and right! The space itself is very clean and organized with plenty of room to enjoy the VR experience, we will certainly be back !
I had an incredible time playing virtual reality games with friends! The experience was unforgettable, and the intense moments of surviving zombie attacks had us all on the edge. The environment was immersive and perfectly set the stage for an exciting adventure. A big shoutout to Dora, who was absolutely amazing at providing clear and helpful instructions. She made the whole experience smooth and enjoyable, ensuring we could dive right into the action. We're already planning to come back with a new crew to
First time here, Dora is great! We did the dream hackers and it was a really fun experience. She walked us through everything and guided us if we needed help. They have plenty of games to choose from and family friendly games too. Highly recommend if you're looking for some fun to do around Houston!
Dora she's a great host and she's a lot of help ... Really enjoyed my experience and I will be back when I come back to Houston !!! It's a 10 all around the board
My name is Daphne and I came with my boyfriend Tony for his 47th birthday and we had a blast! We had so much fun that we drove 2 1/2 hours 3 days straight to play the zombie VR game they had offered. Mrs.Dora is amazing and the facility is very clean, organized, and purposely designed to meet the needs of the customers and the experience. On our way back now with our plus two for our third night in a row. Can't wait ??
I had a awesome time here with my bst frnd! We did Call Of Blood! It was so much fun even at my grown age! Definitely would recommend
We had a complete blast. If you are visiting Houston and have an hour to have fun stop by you will not regret. Awesome family fun. We will definitely come back again next time we are in town. The experiences are also available in 13 other languages.
My husband and I have to come to Houston frequently and are always looking for fun things to do. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Exitus! You are never sure of the quality of the place or purchase as you are scrolling through things to do, but this one is definitely worth it. It's a small, not fancy place right off the freeway, but is clean and the woman running it is so kind, patient and attentive. The game we chose was about an hour and there was three of us. It was a blast! It was challenging, but not overly difficult
So much fun! Staff is friendly and willing to help you pick a game if you aren't too sure. Thank you so much Dora!
We came here with our University research lab and it was an amazing experience, the games were really fun and immersive. Thanks Dora for being a great operator!
My nephews love the experience. Dora was amazing she help then in the game. We will come back for sure
Took my boys and had the best time ever!! VR seamless and vivid. Rotten Apples Zombie game exciting and scary! My new favorite past time is VR ZOMBIES ??????. Highly recommend and Dora rocks!!!
Amazing experience! Our family of four had so much fun! We did the Call of Blood - so scary but so awesome!
Me and my girlfriend Came on Sunday (1/5/25) & Had a great experience, the host up front was very helpful and kind. Highly recommend
It's the best place to play VR! I've had so much fun shooting zombies here. :)
This was my first time trying VR. I love this version of escape room because it more immersive. The owner is kind and very helpful. I look forward to going back there again.
Such a fun experience. Not only is it a VR room but it's also an escape room. A unique experience that's guaranteed to have a good time! 10/10 experience and Dora is the best!
Dora was great ! We had a blast Would definitely recommend ??
My friends and I had such a great time! Such a unique experience in Houston, would definitely recommend. And The owner Dora was so kind and personable!
Dora was absolutely amazing and so helpful! This was our first time going. We'll definitely be back
It was great fun, the owner was very accommodating. She guided us through the process and although very scary the asylum escape room was very engaging. I will surely come back and try out other games.
(hadn't actually written a review over 2 yrs ago so) This place was a ton of fun! They have many headsets so you can have decently sized groups, and they have a good selection of games.
The game was a real fun and I think their games are the best. Their staff were extremely helpful and very kind. In the game you need to work as a team. So it's a great therapeutic way to built a couple relationship and have a fun date. Thank you so much.
Hands down. Best VR experience ever. Celebrated my nephew's birthday there. Dora and her team are great. It is really a hidden gem for VR play. Making plans to go back for more zombie kills and escape room thrills ASAP!
Loveeee my experience every time me and my wife go . Will be back very soon I do thank Dora for always being so kind when we go.
This was my first time with VR and Dora truly made my experience amazing. She thoroughly explained everything and prioritized my comfort. The space was spotless and I can't wait to come again!
First off, Dora was great! She's very easy to talk to and full of guidance. The game itself was amazing! I went with a group of 3 and we did the zombie apocalypse and we were in awe at the details and how fun it was. It takes some time to get the hang of it but it's so fun. Would definitely recommend
Pretty cool experience. We did the survival. Maybe that one is too time consuming to finish the quest but it required a lot of back and forth in the game which ate up too much time. Especially if you are playing with another partner then it takes more time to coordinate and arrive at the same place in the game. Maybe future puzzle type escape games would have easier navigation in the game to not waste the previous time moving to the objective
This was my first time doing a VR headset and the owner Dora was very helpful in teaching me the controls and guiding me in my Zombie Survivor adventure. She could even accomodate my glasses in the VR headset. The mission was challenging and I ultimately failed to get off the island being overwhelmed by the numerous zombies. I came close and ultimately died defending the last tower. It was intense and fun. They have many adventures to choose from. Dora cares for her customers and caters to the older people
So much fun!!! Highly recommend. Dora was so nice and helpful too!
We celebrated our son?s 14th Birthday here and they had a blast. Dora was so helpful and took the time to explain the set up and made sure the boys had fun.
Loved this place!! Brought 5 people with me. Five gamers and one regular person. We ALL had so much fun!! Worth it.
Dora and Nicolle were beyond amazing with our group. They were so helpful with my group they even opened early for us. If you have a loved one living with a disability please take them here!! You won't be disappointed. You can just feel all the love this 2 ladies have for our group!!
We had so much fun it's a great event for couples and friends it's a must that I come back. Customer service was Great Miss Dora was always a helping hand
We had a blast. I wasn't sure what to expect but it beat all expectations! The owner explained the game in great detail. We had a family of four (8,13,36,37). We will definitely be going back!
Great experience! It was our first time as a family and we had so much fun. Dora was very attentive and helpful all the time.
Went to ExitusVR For a team building event. The owners were extremely friendly and informative. The team had a great time and the game we played was perfect and inclusive so everyone Participated . Great experience!!
Omg!!!! We had a blast 2 times in a roll!! Love it!!! Definitely coming back!!!
Absolutely phenomenal experience with ExitusVR! The management team is nothing short of fabulous. From the moment I stepped in, I was greeted with warmth and enthusiasm. Their attention to detail and dedication to customer satisfaction are truly commendable. The VR experience itself was mind-blowing, with cutting-edge technology that transported me to another world. The staff's expertise and guidance enhanced every moment, making it an unforgettable adventure. I can't recommend this place enough! Five stars
SO MUCH FUN! Our ?guide? was Dora, Abe Abe was so helpful and patient. We really enjoyed it and will definitely go back. We did the Alice in Wonderland VR room and it was very cooooooool!
This place is awesome! Dora the explorer was so nice. We were in the middle of VR and we called her for a chair to sit on. There is a ginormous, inconceivable, extensive selection of games. We highly recommend going there! ~ Dhruva, age 10 file:///var/mobile/Library/SMS/Attachments/0f/15/AA3BD757-CCD6-4C34-912D-55E6D805982B/123_1.jpeg
I went to exitus late on a Saturday night terrified but excited to try this new experience. I was nervous because I decided to go by myself so I was alone with a headset on in a dark room but Dora made me feel welcomed and safe. She checked in on me often and accommodated me as best as possible. I've never done VR and I had a blast with the different games and experiences to try. Will definitely go back!
This place doesn't get enough love! I've never used VR before but Dora was great at instructing us. We (2 ppl) did the Chernobyl Escape Room and we escaped with 13 minutes left. It was super immersive and, as Dora explained, combines gaming with escape rooms. What a fun thing to do in Houston, I would definitely come back again.
We came as a group and played Mind Horror Silent Man. We will be definitely be back! Throughly enjoyed it. And John's a great guy! Excellent customer service.
OMG The Best hidden gem. VR and Escape Room duo was killing 2 birds with 1 stone for us. The quality experience you'd think there would be NO availability due to demand. Cannot rave about this place enough.
The experience was fun. I wanted to try Exitus VR for a long time and finally got the chance to try it for my birthday with my family. One child wanted to kill zombies and the other wanted an escape room. We decided on Rotten Apple as it was 50 minutes and a little bit of both. We all had a great time using the VR headsets and they were able to accommodate two of us needing glasses with the headsets on. We really enjoyed working together and solving puzzles as well as the teamwork and communication to
Pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed this! I (45 yo mom) took 11 yo son an 67 yo mother. We all laughed and played together liked by never b before. Hard to find an activity we all enjoy equally as much. This was amazing. We did the Jungle one ????. Will be back in two weeks!
Me and my husband absolutely love ExitusVR. So far we've done 4 games and can't decide which was best, they're all so great. HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Some of the games are a bit harder but use those hints! And Dora (the owner) is so helpful, she really wants you to see through the entire game and and enjoy the whole experience. This place does not disappoint. ??????????
My future wife and I really really enjoyed the interactive game play. This was our first time with VR and we can't wait to return with the family. Our host was awesome and made us feel very welcomed. Thanks for a great memorable experience!
We planned this for 12 year old birthday .It was fun for adults and kids. Facility is clean, lot of eacape room option to choose from.. we did the jungle cruise and it was real fun.. Dora is super helpful. We will be visiting again soon..
Divorced broke dad here .. I accidentally booked at Exitus VR ! It was 40 min away from our house (we live in cypress) ! I called and told them that wouldn't be able to make it in time because of the distance . They were very accommodating! They told us it was fine we were 20 min late but still got us in! The boys and I had a blast ! And the price is the best bang for your buck in Houston compared to others ! We will be returning. ( DONT LET A PERSON JUST USE A REVOLVER JUST TO TRY TO GET HEADSHOTS YOU WONT
First time experiencing VR and ?Dora the Explorer ? made the experience so easy and fun. She was great at educating before we got started and was very patient. Lots of fun if you haven't tried it do so, will definitely be back.
I've went to this twice...1st time playing House of Fears: Cursed Souls. It truly was an amazing experience. It feels like you're actually there because everywhere you look is a part of the game. I was peeking out from behind walls as if there was a physical wall in front of me. And one of the scares in the game. OH EM GEE!!! The scream that I scrumpt!!! I had to really grab my chest to regain my composure because I thought it had got me for real. And it was actual puzzles in the game that required teamwork
One of my favorite activities thus far for date night or hanging out with friends! Husband and I went and can't stop telling everyone how much fun we had. The space was clean and the staff were very friendly. We will definitely be doing another 2 hour road trip to be back with more friends! I love scary stuff so we picked the haunted cabin. LOVED IT.
We celebrated my son?s 12th birthday with 7 boys and 2 adults. From my initial call to walking out Exitus VR, my experience with Dora was exceptional. Her dedication to customer satisfaction was evident, making my interaction truly outstanding. The boys couldn't stop talking about their time - it was highly enjoyable, providing a blend of entertainment, social interaction, and immersive gaming. Dora suggested great games, assisted with proper setup, and provided guidance throughout our playtime?especially
Fun times. Lots of games! Really nice you can play a game With some many people at the same time.
We brought 5 adults here for my daughter's birthday and played the Survival game. It was a lot of fun, but we did not escape the island. This was because my husband and I never play video games, so our time was spent figuring out how to move around and stay fed, while my kids were doing all the required activities. If we had a bit of time to practice with the controls first, we would have been more successful. That said, we do plan to return.
This place is amazing! Dora took great care of my family and my kids. She was incredibly helpful and we will definitely be coming back to visit again!
Me and my friends saw this place on google and thought we would give it a try, and it exceeded our expectations! Everything was very well organized and the lady working there was sweet and super helpful! I definitely recommend this place if you are looking for a new experience to try with friends or family. We did the prison escape which was a completely different experience then a normal escape room since you use VR gear, but I will definitely be coming back!
It was a blast had so much fun can't wait to go back again
Good experience and good service. Last week, my girlfriend and I went to Exitus VR again and were very happy with the experience. Also, Dora is accommodating when we are playing the Atlanta.
Very cool! This was a ton of fun and the people were super helpful and nice!
Hi I went on a Wednesday at night I was late to my reservation but they still took me in. I really liked the environment and how it was setup. We had privacy and the lovely Dora helped us a lot she was really kind she came mid game to help us get back to our centers cause we walked on accident. The place is clean and beautiful and I would 100% go back and try all the other games.
I recently visited Exitus VR, and I have to say, it was an incredible experience! The customer service was phenomenal ? the staff was attentive, friendly, and eager to ensure we had a great time. As for the VR experience itself, it was so much fun! We had such a blast that we will definitely be coming again. Highly recommend Exitus VR for anyone looking for an unforgettable adventure!
Celebrated my son?s 15th birthday at Exitus VR and the boys had an awesome time!!! Dora is knowledgeable about the games and is able to recommend based off of the client?s preferences which made a great experience. Plus, she knows how to make it a smooth experience for mom!!! Thank you, Dora. We will definitely be back!!!
My son and I came for our first virtual escape room experience for his 18th bday. We had such a blast! The establishment is friendly and very helpful. We look forward to coming back again.
5/5. Me and my son always come here and this is one of the best VR places in Houston, TX. The game was fun and we escaped in time, but the best part was the staff and the atmosphere. The staff was so kind and wonderful they gave us a free game on the house. The atmosphere was like back to the future with lights. The game had good graphics and was higher than my expectations. This is the best hidden gem in Houston TX. I would 100% come and try out their single player or escape rooms, either one you choose yo
Took my nephews here and we had an amazing time! The staff member, Dora, was very nice and welcoming and she made it exiting for the kids. Definitely a family friendly establishment and recommend anyone with pre-teen children to check this place out.
I took my son and three other teenagers to play the VR escape room games. They all had a great time. They were very engaged and when they were done, they wanted to play another round. The lady that was there was very helpful with encouraging them through the game and she also allow me to experience the VR game. I would definitely recommend this place to them. Thank you for making my son's 13th birthday an awesome experience.
Took a little time to get use to the controls. Great moving around the maps. Me and my family have tried almost all the other escape rooms in houston. This is a great concept and they have a ton of different adventures. Most rooms are great for 2 people which is great for us. Not having weird random people join you in playing is cool.
Picked this VR place on a whim! The customer service was great. They accommodated me and four others. Two in our group were 13 yrs of age. Games are played on an oculus. We choose an escape room game with a time limit of 1 hr. We almost beat the game at the last minute. We had a great time!
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.
