“I Was Nervous They’d Get Bored”
That’s what Sarah J. told us when she booked a VR laser tag party for her 11-year-old. But as soon as the headsets went on, everything changed.

“They were yelling like it was Fortnite—but moving. It was wild.”

Why It Worked

  • The group stayed together in one private experience
  • Game time was balanced with breaks and snacks
  • Every kid had a role — revive teammates, complete objectives, win rounds

“It Was the First Party I Got to Just… Watch”
That’s the part we hear most from parents: they actually get to enjoy the party too. It’s exactly what we designed Virtual Ventures to deliver.
