Sandbox VR Germany

I can't really understand all the good comments. We were there with 6 friends. The shop is beautifully designed and the employees were super friendly. My expectations were perhaps a little different to many others, as I have VR glasses at home myself and therefore know the options, the range of games and the pros and cons. If a company only offers a service, i.e. a VR experience, then I expected the games and the equipment to be of the highest standard. The image quality of the VR glasses was very disappointing for me. There are some entry-level VR glasses with better quality. The graphics of the games were extremely below average. What was worse was that the game kept jerking a lot for us (all of us) and the glasses stopped working when we rotated. The game itself (Amber Sky 2088) wasn't particularly good either and quickly got boring. You start on a platform similar to an elevator and ride it higher and higher towards space. Aliens keep appearing and you have to shoot them down. This quickly became tedious and boring, as there was no variety. What was even more annoying was that a lot of the 40 minutes of gameplay were just "film sequences" and the actual active playing time was very short.

For someone who has never tried VR before, this might be a great introductory experience, but for "VR experts" it's more of a disappointment.
