About this venue
VR World Breda is a virtual reality experience centre in the Futuredome, the former Breda Dome Prison, with over 60 VR experiences including two VR escape rooms by Ubisoft. In Escape the Lost Pyramid (Assassin's Creed Origins) you travel to 1928 to find a missing expedition in the pyramid of Nebka; in Beyond Medusa's Gate (Assassin's Creed Odyssey) you escape with 2-4 players from a massive Greek coastal cave. Both are cooperative VR puzzles where players see different pieces of information and must work together aloud. Visitors on TripAdvisor praise the graphics, clear instructions and teamwork; the most mentioned moment is the vertigo of stepping virtually over a cliff edge. Criticism: it's licensed content found in every VR arcade worldwide, so nothing location-specific. There is no escapetalk score because the VR and escape room audiences barely overlap.

Very nicely set up, neatly arranged, good explanation and good materials. We really laughed, worked together and enjoyed the beautiful VR experience.— TripAdvisor
