VR club VRoomGames
St. Petersburg developers have collected the latest technologies from all over the world in the field of virtual reality and created a completely new VR format. You can get together with friends to put on equipment and all together find yourself in a completely different world.

The only thing that so far distinguishes new technologies from reality is graphics and insufficient tactile signals. However, the team recently purchased new glasses that transmit images more clearly and guns that vibrate in a special way, sending sensations through the hands to different parts of the body. Technologies are developing, and the developers of VRoom Games have set themselves the goal of remaining at the forefront of the development of the VR world.
