Offering cutting-edge free-roam VR experiences, a golf simulator, VR escape rooms, and a self-service bar, the business delivers diverse entertainment options that appeal to a wide audience.

With hardware assets valued at approximately $500,000 and an experienced team in place, day-to-day operations are streamlined, enabling the owner to focus on growth opportunities, such as hosting corporate events or forming strategic partnerships.
