This place is the best place ever! My husband and I come here almost every week now because it is soooooo much fun! We could play forever!! So many different... read more games to choose from, from kids games to adult games, from easy, moderate to hard, games for everyone of every age! I highly recommend this place! Trust me you won't be disappointed & you'll probably be coming back. We have tried other VR places, but nothing beats this place. Also, Sean is the coolest person ever!

  The kiddos had a blast. We showed up late (due to traffic) and was still allowed our hour we reserved and paid for. That was great customer service and we... read more will be back for more fun soon! Thank you

  This place is awesome. Friendly staff was always around to help if you got stuck or couldn't figure something out. Played co-op games with my hunny in another station and... read more it was really easy to coordinate moves. An hour goes by really fast, so if you're a gamer, you will not want to share your time. Will be back very soon.

  Great experience! I went here for a date night. Could not have gone better. I was able to communicate with my date via microphone. Worked surprisingly well.
I have been... read more curious about VR for a while. Thought I should give it some time before investing. After my experience using the Vive I can tell they are ahead of my expectations. Still going to wait a bit longer before I invest. This is a great place to hold me over till then.

  My boyfriend and I tried this yesterday, on a Monday. We did a walk in, because we weren't sure when we were free. We came in around 3:30 and it... read more was not busy at all, mainly because it's in the mid afternoon on a Monday. We paid for one hour and we each our own station, so we were across from each other. The guys working there helped us get situated and I must commend them for their patience because I can be so incompetent.

You watch a demo in the beginning so it's very straight forward to use and I am definitely not a gamer, but I was able to pick up on what to do fairly easy. (So if I can do it, anyone can do it) We had a great time playing a variety of games together. You have the option to play multiplayer and talk to each other using the headset, or play on your own. But we chose to play the multiplayer games together and it was just fun. We were just yelling and talking to each other the entire time. It is definitely a work out though. In the one hour we tried over 5 different games.

Next time we are definitely going for 2 hours and we are going to bring more people over. They do recommend to make a reservation online for big parties.

Big thank you to the guys at Zion for being so welcoming and being so patient with us! They were definitely very helpful. Even though we booked it for an hour, they added about 15-20 minutes to help you get use to the system. The pricing is really fair and it isn't too bad either. For the experience, the time, and the service -- the pricing is fair. We paid for $55 for two of us, that's less than 30 per person.  We had a great time.

  This place is straight up awesome! Decided to come here to celebrate a birthday and I would say that it was a great choice! The owner of this spot (Shawn)... read more is just so welcoming and wants you to have the best experience, he would introduce you to the system and help you along the way as you try to navigate through the games. This place is great to come with friends as you are able to play with each other or even a birthday party! If you've never tried Virtual Reality yet and want a great first time experience, come here!!!

  My kids enjoyed it...money well spent!! Staff was friendly and helpful. We will definitely be back again! Sean and Stephanie were very nice amd patient as well! �

  Zion VR is amazing, I like that you can book an appointment online and when you come in you don't have to worry about the hassle. I would recommend bringing... read more family it's really fun to play multiplayer games. We can't wait to come back!

  Such a fun experience!! I keep thinking about coming back and finishing our zombie game. Too bad my boyfriend and i live on the southern part of california.

My boyfriend and... read more i played the multiplayer zombie game. It took a couple of times getting mauled by zombies to get the hang of things. After a while it was pretty easy to figure out how to do things like change guns or throw a granade.

The worker there was really nice and even helped us out by giving hints. There was a glitch in my part of the system 30 minutes into the game and the worker ended up restarting the game as well as the time we had. I only paid for an hour and to me that was not enough time. I could have played for 2 hours straight. The entire time I could communicate with my boyfriend through a mic and it was just really realistic.

This was a super fun experience and my boyfriend really enjoyed it.

  Me and the hubby went here for a date. It's super clean, reasonably priced, and the staff was very friendly and helpful. It was SO MUCH FUN. The games get... read more really immersive and we wished we booked more than an hour when our time was up. Will definitely be coming back.

  The Arcade itself is pretty good! The VR headset is easy to put on but can be nauseating at times whenever you play physically exerting games. Virtual Dodgeball, Eagle game... read more and the Zombie game we’re worth the 1hr time slot

  This place KICKS ASS and Shawn/Sean, dont know how he spells his name, but he is GREAT and very helpful. He doesnt just leave you to figure the games... read more out. If you are having trouble, he is already on it and explaining to you how to do the game through your headset.
Great prices, making an appt ahead of time is highly suggested so you are locked in at the time of your choice, but not required. Sold by the hour and can book it for as many hours as you like. And you van play with multiple players. Thats where the real VR fun begins and gets very intense.
There are 9 rooms and over i thibk it was 40+ games on the menu and all are categorized by the difficulty levels.
If you want to really experience some VR, this is definitely the place.

  Helpful, kind owner. You'll have fun here!

  I initially saw Zion Virtual Reality through reviewers on Yelp. I've been wanting to try VR myself for a very long time, and I finally booked an appointment! It was... read more incredibly worth it! I think the experience can be enjoyed by both seasoned gamers and non-gamers.

I booked a reservation online, you must also pay online too to complete the reservation. Booking online was pretty straightforward and easy, and you get sent a confirmation e-mail.

Zion VR is located across from REI and on the other side of Costco (right where Costco gas is). Parking in front of Zion VR is a bit small, but even during the weekend we were still able to find a spot.

Before you start, you need to sign waivers and then you're ushered into your stations. I believe there are 9 different stations at Zion, each with its own VR headset. You're allowed to share a station with one other person, but you must alternate -- you can't both be using the VR headset at once. It really does not matter if your station is next to other people in your party. The staff will set up your headphones so that you can still be talking and listening to the other people in your party, and you are still able to play multiplayer games if you want to. After that, there is a brief tutorial on how to use the controls and then you're off! Zion has a vast array of games to play, which they categorize from easy into very hard difficulty. There are also multiplayer games, but you're not limited to play just one game. You can switch from game to game yourself using the controller.

For people who are not playing, there is a small waiting area in the front with a small selection of snacks and drinks to purchase. There are also small chairs in front of each station that you can sit on. There are monitors in front of each station so that non-players can see what the players are seeing.

I appreciate how after each station was used, Sean (who I think is the owner) wiped down the VR headsets and headphones with sanitizing wipes. He also kept watch on what/how everyone was playing, so that if a player got stuck, he talked to them through the headsets and gave them tips on what to do next. He was very friendly!

I would recommend reserving before you come here, especially if it's during the weekend. While it was about a third full when we arrived on a weekday, it was pretty full by the time we left. They only have 9 stations so a few families can easily fill the business up!

I think Zion has a really solid business going on here, and I was impressed by how well everything was run -- from the VR headsets and interface, through the use of the Discord voice client so that players can hear and talk with each other, and the cleanliness. It is admittedly a little expensive. However, actual HTC Vives are extremely expensive, and they have to maintain all the PCs running at each station as well. So I think the price is well worth it for a VR experience.

Even if you aren't a gamer, there are casual gamees you can play that can really show you how fun and realistic VR can feel. I strongly recommend it to anyone!!

  My Nieces and Nephew love this place and that's all a cool Auntie needs to know.   Their ages are 14, 13 and 12.  My nephew Beau and been there... read more 2 nights before so he was already old hat when using the VR.  My nieces the 14 and 12 year old struggled a bit at first but the helpful staff was there to help them and guide them along.  

We were there for an hour which seemed like a long time for me but they said time just flew by, it was a fun experience and I'm sure they will be returning.   They have a comfortable sofa to chill out on while you're waiting or they have little boxes you can sit on and watch them make fools out of themselves.  haha just kidding.

  Awesome experience and not just because of the virtual reality games but the staff is super helpful and welcoming. I highly recommend

  Had a super fun date here a while ago, if you are thinking of getting personal VR or just want to have fun in a new world this is a... read more must go.
They take care of all the setup and can radially get you in a group, they put you in a call with your whole group so you can talk to each other while playing.
If you are in the area and want to have some unique fun check this place out.

  Best thing that's happened to Sacramento! Endless entertainment for the entire family. My sons look forward to going here every weekend. They even started behaving just so I'd take them... read more to Zion! Lol. Thank you Zion VR!!

The place is nice and clean with state of the art equipment. Sean, Stephanie, and Sinh are incredibly friendly and helpful. Booking is a breeze but they also take walk-in. I'd recommend booking online if you have a large group tho (i.e. Bachelor parties, birthday parties-for sure your kid will become the most popular kid in school!).

You really don't have to be a gamer to enjoy VR. If you just want to immerse yourself into another world for an hour, escape your crazy life, or enjoy pure entertainment give VR a try. Guarantee you won't regret it.

  Absolutely amazing! I couldn't believe how fast the time went! I can't recommend Zion enough!

  I came with a group size of seven. The age range of our group was 9-30 years old. This was most of the group's first time doing virtual reality. Two... read more of which are avid gamers. We all had a blast, there were 60 games to choose from, however, because of our group size, we were only able to play about 5 of them. The games were awesome! We started with dodgeball, a great game to get used to the controls, however, we had to switch games because the max players was only six. It didn't take long to feel like we were in the game. We then played an intense first person shooter game. At this point everyone had a good handle of the controls. We all got into it and some of us ended up sweating. Alien vs Cowboys was also fun because it was a shooter game where we could use any item to use against your opponents. We played for an hour and we all definitely would want to go again. Shaun helped us get set up and had great tips and game suggestions. We came out of this place with everyone having different favorite games. We recommend playing at this place. It was awesome.

  So fun! I want to do it again! Can't wait to take my husband for date night.

  The best VR place I've ever been too. Super friendly and fun. Great time for kids and adults. We highly recommend this place. My kids will be talking about it... read more for months.

  Last night was my 3rd experience at Zion so I felt it appropriate to leave a review seeing as how I've thoroughly enjoyed it all three times and feel everyone... read more should try this.

My husband and I came here trying to find something new and exciting in the city. We've had limited play with VR and thought we'd give Zion a try. I was compelled to come here after reading all the positive reviews I've seen on social media. The first time we went we reserved two spots and arrived at our appointment 10 minutes before per instruction to learn the controls. This place gets bonus points for an all-online booking system where you can see how many slots are taken on any given day. We were lucky to be the only two in the building. The owner (I believe his name is Sean? Shawn? I feel bad not remembering) was extremely helpful explaining how the system works. Afterwards, we were on our way into VR land. I was so blown away by the experience - it opened my eyes to a whole new world of fun. We enjoyed it so much we actually came back the next day with our teenager in tow. Last night I reserved the whole place for my husband's birthday party. All guests were all newcomers and yes, they were all impressed.

The building: It's a small location, the inside is nothing fancy to look at. Very simple and clean. It's of course dimly lit and very quiet in between appointments, and quiet if you're lucky enough to have the place to yourself. The bathroom is well maintained and the tiny lobby has snacks for sale. There are 10 stalls each equipped with a headset. Each has air so you don't get too hot playing in your stall. They make sure to keep each headset sanitized. My first time going there I was worried about other peoples' sweat and whatnot cause that is obviously disgusting but thankfully I've not had a problem with smelling other peoples' gross stink in the headset. I know that's a weird thing to talk about, however you *are* sticking something on your freaking face that's been on hundreds of other peoples' sweaty face and heads. Never a problem here.

The games: There are a ton of games for all ages, young and old, from simple puzzle games to zombie shooters, to absurdly realistic underwater ocean encounters and Star Wars-esque lightsaber training, Including some multi-player options. If you're worried about taking your children and a group of adults together, DON'T BE. The Vive headsets they use are top-of-the-line and comfortable to wear. Each person communicates via a Discord channel so you are able to talk to your family/friends while you play. Sometimes the controls are a little hard to grasp depending on the game, however 99% of the time easy to understand. If you get stuck, the owners always offer tips and help immediately so that your rental time isn't eaten up with struggling.

The people: The owners/employees are super friendly. They have 100% made sure that everyone is in and out on time for their next appointments but have never rushed us at all. They are also so, so helpful without being pushy. They seem like they actually like what they do and he's always laughing. They've done a great job making sure every time we've has been nothing but a quality experience.

The only cons: be prepared for extra noise in your headsets if there are other adults with their kids going crazy in stalls next to you. The noise never gets overbearing or painful in the headsets, ever, but it's pretty annoying to be trying to enjoy a game with someone a few feet from you screaming. This only happened on one occasion and was hard to communicate with my family because of the bleed through on the headsets (which is beyond the arcade's control of course). Some things that would make this experience even more enjoyable: Put a limit on excessive noise. Children are expected to be loud, but when full-grown men come in shouting at the top of their lungs at every single thing they do perhaps it would be a good policy to ask them to chill out. I sound like Mrs. Buzzkillington, but jeez. Also, sometimes it is overly distracting to hear extra tips or suggestions when you are trying to play a game. I am appreciative when I am stuck and I need help, however there have been some times where we have just been exploring around and were receiving unsolicited advice and solutions to what we were doing. I understand they're just trying to be helpful though, so I can't knock him for that. A very friendly suggestion would be that he and anyone else assisting with the setup don't offer game tips unless specifically asked. Otherwise, please keep coming into our channel to help us!

If you're looking for an all-ages fun thing to do, GO TO THIS. I recommend it for literally everyone. Just go. It's cheap and you won't be disappointed.

  So much fun. Definitely going with friend(s) makes it way cooler. Multiplayer games. Good hosts that will help you out. I would stay there all day if I could.

  Spent the day there, it was great! I tried out Space Pirate Trainer & Google Earth VR, and talked to a lot of interested people. Zion looks very professional.

I think this place will do well.

  Took my nephew to this place. We really enjoyed it. If you are into gaming check this place out.

  Awesome experience, especially if you are on the fence about buying one yourself. Staff is friendly and you are able to easily play with friends in game. There is room... read more for improvement regarding the physical location but I'm so glad j went! I had lots of fun!

  Tons of fun! I went with my boyfriend, but we were unfortunately only able to get 1 bay because we didn't make a reservation.  It was a great date place,... read more and easy to pick up for a non-gamer (me).

  This was an amazing experience! Had a blast and would do this again!

  Excellent! My husband brought me yesterday for my birthday. We played a game together too- interesting how far technology has come. Pretty easy to get a handle on it too.... read more I really like the tilt brush, and even the fruit ninja was pretty sweet. The one with the temple run type was having me feel like I was actually walking 😆😆😆

  Fantastic experience with my two granddaughters, ages 7 and 11.

  First, let me say I don't play video games. But I do have a husband and 2 boys who do and after stumbling on this place on yelp I figured... read more why not book some time as a birthday gift. We took four of the bays for an hour(2 adults,2 kids) and it was nothing less than amazing. We could talk to each other with the headsets so we started together picking out a multiplayer game and then as we all became more confidant with the controls and how to move back and forth through the menus we branched off to explore the other programs by ourselves but we can still hear and talk to each other. Occasionally, we'd run into an issue such as my husband unwittingly switching the controller to left hand mode and immediately the owners stepped in and helped us navigate. I didn't think there would be such a huge choice to explore but in the space of that hour I did the "kill everything that moves archery game" as described my son but also explored underwater(met a very large whale), took an elevator to the top of a high rise and tried to step out onto a plank(you'd think that would be easy) and a bunch of other programs that I didn't get to explore as much as I would have loved to because I was trying to get a taste of everything. Towards the end, I chanced on an Extra program that is actually the story of the Little Matchgirl ,animated but all around you in 3D and so charming that I finished up my time just watching the story. When we went for pizza afterwards we compared notes and all of us found completely different things for the hour so that tells you the variety they have. Very happy to have found a place that the entire family enjoys.

  I came here with my boyfriend for his birthday. Paid $55 for both of us and came close to paying more because we didn't want to leave! The VR equipment... read more was easy to handle and the staff knew right away when we needed help trying figure out something. I recommend this to everyone, even children. There were many games to choose from and they were categorized by their difficulty. If you have a weak stomach, look out for the zombie games and plank games. They also had multiplayer section so you can play with your friends. Definitely coming back soon

  I enjoyed coming here with my 2 teenagers.  It took a little getting used to but turned out pretty fun...especially in the multiplayer games. My only complaint? Time went by... read more too quickly!

  Ok so I heard on Yelp they had a Grand Opening and I thought this would be a great activity to add to the New Years Eve celebrations and it... read more was not a let down. Came in did a little of the demo and then we all wanted to start playing each other.  I of course picked a game where I could kill as many bad guys as possible it was so much fun I was screaming the whole time...but i didn't notice because I had the head phones on hehe but it was a blast. The rest of my group decided to play an it longer then I did so I can tell they are enjoying it too by all the laughing I'm hearing.

If you're looking for just a fun activity that's a million times better then an arcade, movie, mini golf, ice skating, or watching the submarine races hehe go ahead and check this place out ...it is all by the hour so you get a lot of time and the prices are pretty good.

  Had an amazing time! So much fun, and realistic experience. There are many game options to chose from. There are tons of multi player games, single player games.

  So much fun and well organized. Runs about $25 so it's relatively inexpensive and fun.

  Such a great treat for our family. The staff needs to make sure the adults playing are aware there are children present. The first time was amazing because it was... read more other kids playing.

  Tons of fun! Took my 13 year old and we both had a great time. He wants to go back and I totally agree.

  So when I'm not playing paintball, gambling my money away at the casino or watching the newest movie out this is where you will find me from now on. This... read more place is awesome! I went 2 days in a row the first day doing 2 hours straight then the next day 1 hour to show my uncle what he was missing. We all had fun! The coolest part about this VR place is you can connect up to 4 people when playing multiplayer( I believe you can connect up to 6 or everybody, in not sure but 4 I know for sure) Me and my brother and uncle were playing the fortress game and we met some awesome people online from the U.K! They have cold drinks and snacks, the owner and his wife and son (I believe) will help you with any problem you may have. They'll answer any question you may have and are super helpful!

Pros : this place is awesome! You'll have a great time single handedly going or go with a group to get a small discount.

Cons : there isn't any.

  Didn't think I would get brought so deep into the virtual game. The game "Left Hand Path" let me be a mage. Had a great balance of thrill and mystery.... read more Next time I'm definitely going to try out the light saber battle. Great ambience and staff, this place deserves more recognition!! Highly suggest bringing the family here for some good family or individual fun.

  These guys are giving me hope that someday arcades may come back! Their VR setups are fantastic and emersive. They have a wide variety of games that has something for... read more everyone. They have arts and education, action, fps, multi-player, co-op, and of course several zombie options. I took my 7 year old son and he is already talking about having his birthday party there.

When you arrive the staff gives you a short tutorial and a look at some of the games, then they get you set up with the vr gear. Im a console gamer, so i don't know much about gaming pcs, but if looks matter they were running some high powered beasts. The VR setup is the HTC Vive I believe. The headsets were clean and comortable, and the audio was fantastic. Once the experience starts you lose track of the real world rather quickly!

You begin in a menu/lobby where you can browse, preview, and select the game you want to play. The staff can put you into parties so you can chat while you play, even across different games. It allowed me to keep in touch with my 7 year old and make sure he wasn't playing games out of his age range. The staff keeps a watchful eye as well and offering help and advice as needed. I know they were watching because I heard them laugh when i threw a rock at a nazi in a WWII game.

Overall it was a ton of fun, and we will certainly be back. The only thing they could improve on is just polishing the overall experience. They are a brand new business and haven't quite dialed in the flow quite yet.

5 stars for sure! I'm always nervous for new businesses but i hope these guys last because I want to go back!

  Lots of fun! Loved playing dodgeball even though I was pretty terrible at it lol!

  I took my brother after I saw the event online. It sounded like something that he'd enjoy. Neither he nor I were disappointed. We had a great time! And we... read more definitely can't wait to come back to #zionvr

  i don't want to tell you why i gave zion vr 5 stars.
go see for yourself.
totally worth it.

  Dope! Super dope!! This place is amazing and a first of its kind for me. My girlfriend and I came in as first timers and the staff was super friendly... read more and patient. They gave us each a demo and walked us through everything. The equipment we used was the HTC Vive which are cleaned and sanitized after each use. They have a selection of VR games you can choose from which can be played solo or with a friend. My girlfriend and I chose to play a zombie apocalypse shooter which was super fun and very immersive! Overall this place is an amazing experience and the staff is very helpful and attendant. 10/10 play again!

  Ama-Zion! (I'm sorry, I had to.) A new arcade in town, Zion is all about VR, virtual reality! With eight different stations and hubs equipped with HTC Vive controllers, headsets,... read more and headphones, this place is shaping up to be really cool!

You pay for an hour of time but they add twenty minutes to half an hour to that you can get adjusted to the controls--which was great, since time flies while you're having fun. I paid for two stations and while they accept walk ins, if you're coming in with a group, I'd recommend putting in a reservation or giving them a call! They offer a discount if you book four or more rooms too!

Each headset and pair of controllers are sanitized between each use, so they're very attentive to multi-person use. There's a large list of games available that you can choose from and the staff are quite knowledgable about the games too! If you're not sure, you can always give a game a try and switch to another one if you prefer! The games are played through Steam so there's the possibility of online and co-op play if you're with friends! They have monitors so that you can see what your friends are playing/seeing, as added fun.

If you're still not too sure, stroll on in! They're more than happy to give you a free demo just to show you what the experience is like. The staff do such a good job of explaining the controls and help you put on the equipment too! Glad I came across Zion! It's not often that you get the opportunity to play with an HTC Vive!

  Me and my bf came here on Valentine's Day. My bf is a gamer so I knew he would love it, the surprise was how much I loved it. The... read more game selection was great and all the games we played were fun. We will be going back.

  My boyfriend and I loved this experience! We were looking for something fun and different to do for date night and stumbled upon this place.

I'm so glad we did!... read more The customer service was amazing and the guy at the front desk was so helpful and patient with us as we attempted to learn. We are NOT gamers at all BUT we still had sooooo much fun. :)

The video graphics and games were so cool!

My boyfriend wants to buy it for home? Is that even possible w/o costing an arm and a leg? :)
