Escape Room Manchester: VR Escape Games on Millow Street
Fancy an escape room in Manchester where the room can be a prison, a jungle or a haunted house? At meetspaceVR Manchester, on Millow Street, the escape room is played in virtual reality. You and your team put on VR headsets, step inside the story and work together to crack the puzzles and escape before the hour is up.
How a VR escape room in Manchester works
Each game is built for a team of 2 to 4 players and a session lasts 60 minutes. Our staff use the first 5 to 10 minutes to show you how everything works, so you get around 50 minutes in the game. You do not need to be a gamer or to have tried VR before. The games are easy to pick up, but you will only get out if you talk to each other and share what you find.
