Here's a quick snippet of the new Squid Game Virtuals VR experience!

Sandbox VR has partnered up with Netflix to present Squid Game Virtuals, an exciting new virtual reality gaming experience! Based on the immensely popular Netflix series, this immersive adventure puts you in the shoes of the contestants to compete in pulse-pounding mini-games and experience the thrill of survival.

There are eight mini-games in total, and each session – which lasts around 30 minutes each – will allow you to play six of the games at random. From the infamous 'Red Light Green Light' to the nerve-wracking 'Cross the Bridge,' you'll get to play some of the most classic games from the show, alongside new exciting challenges like 'Catch and Match', where you must catch shapes, avoid spikes, and throw gold bombs to sabotage your opponents. The player with the highest score at the end will be crowned the ultimate winner! After the game, you'll also get to relive highlights from the session and chuckle over some of the best bits of the game.

Whether you're visiting Sandbox VR with the whole crew or just with your bestie, there's also an option to choose between public and private sessions. Join a public session to meet fellow VR enthusiasts and share the experience, or opt for a private session to enjoy an exclusive adventure with your friends or colleagues.
