Great experience....sub par customer service. Went with my daughter and had a blast. The technology need upgrades and glitch resolution but the idea was amazing and very very eye opening of the possibilities... read more

This place is awesome. Play games and enjoy having fun. Pros: Variety of games Scheduled time / Clean restroom Had my kids party here and they loved it ! Cons : none read more

Everything was great! Super fun family bonding experience. Can get a little hot in the room, but staff was very helpful in cooling down the room! read more

Immersive Gamebox is so much fun! My husband and I were enjoying our staycation in Downtown Houston, and decided to give this place a try. We opted for the ever-popular Squid Games. It definitely was an "immersive experience" as the entire room became a touchscreen of the game. We'd love to come back with our friends to try the other games! read more

Immersive Gamebox - So much fun! - Virtual Reality Centers Near Me - Houston, Texas

Houston summer is hoooooooot Enter Immersive Gamebox. We need more cool, air conditioned, unique, and exciting activities in Houston! A family member made the terrible decision of visiting us in the midst of the Houston summer. Luckily, we had visited Immersive Gamebox once before and knew about this as an awesome option. How do you describe an experience as unique and amazing as Immersive Gamebox? Maybe we start with what it is not: it is not an escape room, it is not an arcade, it is not virtual reality. This is a truly new type of gaming experience where you wear a visor that is tracked across a room that makes you a part of the game (the immersive aspect of this gaming experience). This allows for a really and truly fascinating gaming experience. Immersive Gamebox has partnered with some big names - Netflix (Squid Games and Black Mirror), Angry Birds, Paw Patrol - whatever your interest, you will find a game that you are likely to enjoy. Even if you're unfamiliar with the IP you will probably have an amazing time! Cannot recommend enough. read more

My daughter saw this online and said we had to try it. It's located downtown in the same building as Puttshack near Tom's. The pricing is around $30 pp for and hr. The games range from half hr to 1 hr. We choose angry birds and the floor is lava. I wouldn't recommend angry birds as it's just you using the wall like a big phone, which wasn't exciting. Overall the place was pretty fun and good way to get spend time. read more

Very cool place for adults as well as children. Be ready to move. Tons of fun. I highly recommend this for birthday parties for kids and adult adults. read more

We came on a whim on a Sunday and the whole mall is closed except for Immersive Gamebox. We didn't make an appointment but it's probably a good idea. My daughter is very into the Paw Patrol and we played as a family. It was a lot of fun even playing a game for little kids. The staff at the front was very nice explaining how everything works. We look forward to coming back the next time we're in Houston. read more

Always a great experience. This was my first time to Houston's immersive game box, but we are not new to the franchise. This one was hidden a bit, but the staff was great . Parking is in a garage so try and come early. The staff was friendly and explained everything like we were novices. I loved it read more

This was such a great place to bring some teenagers on a Saturday morning! It is right across from Phoenicia if you are familiar with downtown. We ate there after! I had three boys ages 14 and 15 and they had an absolute blast and it was worth the money because it was about an hour long. You will need to park in the parking garage and come up to the third floor inside a mall and pass the food court, and they will be on the left side. I definitely would recommend this place and they played the Ghostbusters game and had a blast ! Again, this was booked for 12 noon! Plenty of spots for adults to chill out and wait for their kids to finish. Highly recommend! read more

We were greeted as we entered by Simone which is always great. This was Such UNEXPECTED FUN. We tried the squid game immersive and this was such a fun futuristic way to play games as it takes the same challenges from the Netflix hit show and counteract him using a headset not a VR headset though read more

Immersive Gamebox - Final Score - Virtual Reality Centers Near Me - Houston, Texas

Pros- super fun. The funnest workout possible hahah. The games are super entertaining and interactive. We had a blast. The employees are nice for the tiny bit of time they're walking you through the gameplay/instructions. We did Alien Aptitude. Cons- the price. $38 is a bit much. Especially when it's only for an hour of gameplay- it may seem unfair but of course I can't help but compare to other interactive places (like escape rooms) that charge less for either the same amount or even more gametime. The location is terrible. In what is still an essentially empty mall. Plus on top of the price for this you have to pay for parking in the same building. This place would've been better suited in the memorial or katy area. I'll recommend this place to those that don't mind dropping the money, and are possibly closer. Not sure when I'll go back to be honest, but that's mainly based on location/parking. I'll have to give their Willowbrook location a shot incase that one is more convenient for me. read more

Immersive Gamebox - Virtual Reality Centers Near Me - Houston, Texas

So basically a immersive game box is social, interactive gaming venue where groups play video games in a private room using their bodies as controllers, interacting with projection-mapped walls and touchscreens . Also most of the time you have to wait for your que time to go in the game box which one half the games are so complicated that they barley give you any instructions. Plus most the time the game box it self doesn't even work . And the staff here doesn't even know how to fix the problems because most people here come for the drinks not the games . Overall it's a huge headache and not a fun time and the drinks aren't even that great . read more

We came here for my bf's bday surprise and we both had such a fun time! We've never been here before, so when they texted the day of with details on how to get to their location, it was really helpful! The only downside is parking around the area is not cheap, would love to be able to have our parking validated as another reviewer mentioned! The room was very spacious, and they were very helpful and the check in process was quick and easy with our waivers. We went with the space-themed interstellar room for one hour and it was super immersive and creative! You put on some hats and theyre able to track your movement and the walls are touch-interactive as well. Definitely expect to break into a light sweat, because all the lights and movement does make the room a bit hot. They all have lockers outside as well as a little cubby in the room for your items and drinks, and a phone stand so you can film your own content while playing! It's a great way to bond and have light competition in a different format. There's also an opportunity to create a gif at the end and they even email it you as well. We forgot to grab our purple card at the counter afterwards but were glad to see they emailed it with the gif as well. Recommending it for a new type of date night, friendly activity, team-building, or family day out! read more

We had so much fun! Jer was incredibly kind and helpful. The only small issue was that it was hard to find and there wasn't a phone number to call, so we ended up getting a little lost and were late. But overall, it was a great experience! read more

We enjoyed our time here. Towards the end my headband started glitching which was unfortunate. They have a few canned cocktails to choose from. The boxes get warm after all the moving so dress accordingly. They validate parking for up to $13 in the garage. Would definitely try other games. read more

Was in town for a wedding and decided to check this place out with some family, as a way to try something new and have some fun. We all settled on the new game inspired by Black Mirror. We loved how high tech this place looks and feels. To play everyone has to wear a funny little hat that tracks what you're doing. Overall, we had a blast! Their was sections that were competitive and some where you had to work as a team. There are a couple of areas where this place could improve. After a while some of the games become repetitive. It feels like your doing the same task just in different ways. Would love if some of the sections were shortened. Some sections felt like they dragged on. Also, by the end of the game it felt like the hats were not picking up on our actions. Unsure if they needed to be calibrated or what. The end was a little bumpy because of this. Overall, I would totally come again to try out a different game. Would love to compare! And it's also a good little workout if you want to spice it up. read more

This was my first time at immersive game box, and I would definitely come back, very interactive, fun games and I enjoyed that you have your own private space to enjoy games of your choosing. Would definitely recommend to others read more

4 of us went in last minute, the person working the front desk was super helpful and walked us through everything. My husband and I had our niece and nephew with us, 5 and 7 yrs old and they loved it. We did the ghostbusters game. They have great game options for adults and kids. We can't wait to go back. read more

Know if you just want some family fun and do something different than your typical escape room. This gives you the aspect of problem-solving, games, activities, movement and emerges you in a virtual reality setting staff is super friendly and helpful fun games to play. We chose the squid game. Lotta fun And for an hour it seem like it lasted a lot longer. I will definitely come back with more than three people but if three is all you have is twos all you have it's all good just get in there and have a good time and let the kids and all of us out and enjoy the summer in a cool environment that's different than most things you can do in Houston! read more

Immersive Gamebox - AwesoMe time fun place - Virtual Reality Centers Near Me - Houston, Texas

My 11-year-old daughter and I were visiting from Georgia on a Midwest road trip when we stumbled across the Immersive Gamebox in Houston. We had such a wonderful experience! We laughed, jumped around, and created great memories together. Booking an appointment was quick and easy, and the registration process was simple. We chose the Squid Game experience, which was both fun and entertaining. I would definitely recommend this entertainment facility to families looking for something unique and engaging. read more

First time trying this place out, and it was an experience--an excellent way to bond with friends or a loved one. Games are very interactive and kid-friendly, and They also have an open bar and an outstanding staff. I will likely return to this establishment often to show off to my friends. read more

Fun time! Played the Squid Games immersive experience. Be ready to move to play this game. Lots of nice to haves with this place including lockers to leave your things (you take the key) and ledges to place your drinks. Parking is a little something to navigate and it's $18 for over and hour. They did validate for $5 of the parking. Located on the 3rd floor of the mall easy to find. Will return to play more games. read more

Tricky place to get into. Would've given a 5 start if it wasn't so complicated to find. I probably walked around and tried to find and enter the building where it's located. Probably took 20 minutes! But besides that, it was a good experience upon arrival. Friendly service. Took my 6 year old, but I feel like this can be such a fun experience for adults too! They have some seltzers and refreshments. You'll def need them! Very active and recommend comfy clothes. They have maybe 5-6 rooms where groups can play. They have either 30min or 60min options. They mentioned one being like old school arcade games including pac man! Something I would go back to try! Something fun to do in a group! Back to the entering thing, so the best way to enter is on the entrance facing Phoenicia, go up to the second floor, and it's not too noticeable but somewhere in the middle of the floor is where it's located. read more

Had a blast!!! Bought our tickets online a few hrs before to make sure we didn't have to wait. Despite reviews on the Squid Games choice not working appropriately, we didn't have any issues. You have the option to order alcohol or drinks and the beginning and half way thru your experience. Staff was super friendly and Abby was awesome. Found out later they offer a discount on parking as well. We will definitely add this to the rotation for date night :) read more

The service was amazing, I love Squid Game, they had all the good Squid Game games. The package I purchased included 2 drinks for both people. Nice & fun environment! Will go back to increase my ranking! read more

Immersive Gamebox - Houston is amazing! I took my 15-year-old daughter for her birthday, and it was the perfect mother-daughter outing! We had an absolute blast playing through the interactive games, which were both challenging and so much fun. The technology is mind-blowing--it really felt like we were in a different world, and each game was unique and engaging. The staff was wonderful and made sure we were all set before we started. If you're looking for a memorable way to celebrate a special occasion or just have fun together, Immersive Gamebox is a must! We can't wait to go back! read more

I saw that this experience had opened and decided to take my son and his friend to check it out. (they are 11). We did the "Alien Assessment" game for an hour and it was fantastic! Everything about the place is nice. Abby greeted us and helped us get started. She was informative and friendly. The game was fast paced and fun to play.... I HIGHLY RECOMMEND EXERCISE FRIENDLY CLOTHES. (At least flat shoes). I was in jeans and would have preferred shorts or yoga pants, but anything is fine. The venue has drinks for both children and adults (BONUS). It was clean, nice, and a ton of fun. The boys loved it, and it was age appropriate... they could have done harder or more mature games as well, but this was a nice one to become comfortable with how it all works. Parking is expensive, hopefully they will validate soon! read more

It was ok, but I'm not going back. They do send you an email with directions on how to get there, so that was much appreciated. However, it's inside a mall on the third floor, and if you go after mall hours it's a little weird walking around a vacant mall. The service was good and the person explained the rules well. We did squid games, and to be honest it was quite boring. Yes, I watched squid games, yes I love the games, but it was a lot less techy than I imagined. You just put on a hat that tracks your movements and for one hour we really just walked left and right and up and down. The games were boring, and dragged. Again it's just move left right up and down. Maybe another game would have been more interesting. Paying 32$ a person was so not worth it either. They do have drinks you can purchase, which we did, unfortunately it did not make it more fun. I see a lot of good reviews and I was personally recommended to go by a friend who loves it. Maybe if you have kids, it's something to do. We just did not enjoy it. read more

Really enjoyed our weekend date night here! Definitely recommend making reservations ahead of time to book your time slot - when we came on Saturday night they were on a very tight schedule with not a lot of wiggle room for early or late arrivals. You can park at the parking garage (they send an email prior to check in on parking instructions, how to find them, etc). We arrived early and enjoyed some drinks while waiting for a room to become available. We signed up for Squid Games and Temple of Coins. Both games were so much fun. Temple of coins is very similar to playing pac man and well Squid Games has the games based on the well known tv show. It's a little pricey but we'll worth it for the experience. We'll definitely be back to play another game soon! read more

Wow. This place was so much more fun than I anticipated. The photos/videos don't do it justice and the visors look kind of dorky, but don't let that fool you! We did the one-hour session for Squid Games. The software gives you clear instructions before each round, so even if there's a learning curve, it's easy to catch on. The time goes by fast (cause you're having fun, duh) and you might even break a sweat depending on how active you want to get! I will say that we paid for 60 mins, but once the session was done, I saw that we only played for about 45 mins. I don't know if that's because we only had 2 people. But I felt a little shorted. I really appreciated the staff texting/emailing parking instructions and directions to navigate through the mall ahead of time. We would've gotten lost otherwise. Overall, a great experience and definitely a place I'd love to bring more friends to! read more

Definitely a fun time! The more people the better. Even family oriented. Also a great workout.

I loved it, to see everything set up, and I enjoyed the digital art, the plastic room was beautiful, the mirrle room was also good. It was a good experience overall. read more

There are a few parking spots near The Highlight. We found a parking lot near the Four Seasons and walked a short distance over. When you walk into The Highlight, there's a sign that lets you know about IGB and to get on the escalator. They do walk-ins or you can buy your tickets online and check in. There are lockers where you can put your belongings, but there's also a spot in the room where you can put small belongings. They also have a phone stand where you can place your phone for videos or selfies. We did Temple Coins and Squid Games and had a fun time! It requires movement and patience. We had a blast! There are other games that we want to try out for next time! This spot would be great for date night, with friends, or even your coworkers! read more

We played the Squid Games box. We had a lot of fun. An hour we'll spent! I highly recommend it for a good date night or a group of family and friends. read more

We were here for a 12 year old birthday party. The boys had a great time! Everything was so fun!

Had an amazing experience playing the Squid Games for my sister's birthday! Definitely want to go back and try out all of their other games.

Our first time here and we arrived about 15 minutes late because we had no idea where this place was! It's connected to a parking garage where you to take the elevator to floor 3 "mall" we had to walk through a food court to find the actual place. We checked in on the tablet up front and taken to our room. The guy wasn't friendly but he wasn't rude either. Just seemed like he'd rather be somewhere else. It was myself and my kids (ages 6 and 10) the guy put the hat/video controller so tight on my son's head after 5 minutes my son started saying "mom my brain hurts!" lol I had to readjust his hat that guy had it so tight! My daughter's hat wasn't really working properly I had to keep taking it off her head and pointing it at the screen. Since I was with two kids I picked the games they suggested on their website for kids 12 and under. Angry Birds and Shaun the sheep. Both fun at first but after 10-15 minutes my 10 year old was getting bored and said the game was "too easy and for babies". Which I admit after while we got kinda bore read more
