It has been more than a year since TEKZONE opened its doors to the public in Kuwait. We love it so much that we keep going back for more. TEKZONE is an interactive entertainment destination for the entire family, regardless of your age. They offer a flavor of fun that is dynamic, futuristic and completely interactive.TEKZONE makes use of the most advanced gaming and entertainment technology in Virtual Reality (VR) with Augmented Reality (AR) to create attractions, thrill rides, classic games, redemption games and digitally enhanced escape rooms. They are constantly adding and tweaking their offerings to keep their guests and players excited and challenged.
At the door you receive your Time Mission bracelet. Put it on and get ready to be part of something bigger than yourself. But first, you will need to register it, choose a name and an avatar. Every time you play a game you will collect crystals as a reward which can then be redeemed for different prizes. The more crystals you collect, the higher your name goes up the scoreboard which you can find at the exit. The board shows the names of the highest scorer of the day and of the entire year.
While we love all of the TEKZONE games we have some favorites that we keep gravitating towards. As kids, most of us loved figuring out mazes that are printed on paper. Some of us were slightly more obsessed and even tried creating their very own. The VR Maze is that experience but magnified. Find your way out of imaginary, magical and absolutely out of this world spaces by relying on your smarts, wits and sense of direction.
Like almost everyone else who stumbles across the VR game Beat Saber, we absolutely fell in love with it. You are geared up in a VR headset and given motion controllers. As you open your eyes in the game you realize that the world is in neon and the increasing tempo of the music is an indication that this is going to be challenging and exciting. You are holding a blue light saber in one hand and a red one in the other. Big colored blocks move towards your direction and your goal is to slash them with the matching light saber. It is an addictive game that doubles as a workout and is so much fun!
During the day we love bumping into ZO, the cybertronic robot and the friendly face of TEKZONE. He travelled to earth from his home planet Zeta to spread fun and cheer. He’s a lovable fellow, so if you come across him in the park be sure to say hello and snap a few pictures. You might even get to meet some of his friends, the puppets too, who are just as friendly and fun.
Between the VR Bumper Car and the Finger Coaster that you design yourself then ride and all of the amazing other games, TEKZONE is truly an amazing place to spend the whole day in having some real and immersive fun.
