Double Agent:

-

This is Hub Zero’s most popular attraction, and a personal favourite. Double Agent can be played on single or double player mode, and involves a stationary laser maze you have to navigate at your chosen level of difficulty. It’s barely less challengin­g than the one in the heist scene in Ocean’s Twelve, where Vincent Cassel’s character shimmies and limbos his way out of a constantly rotating, nearly impossible to predict laser maze. But then again, I probably feel that way because my much more agile partner navigated through the maze with relative ease, while my performanc­e left much to be desired. Neverthele­ss, it’s great fun, and a really unique experience.

Virtual Arena:

Virtual Arena is a shooter game specific to Hub Zero and is the first wireless VR experience in the UAE. It’s fronted by a futuristic sleek white facade and inside, the space is separated into booths for each player. The player is outfitted with VR glasses and a gun, and the objective is to survive a zombie apocalypse by shooting dead as many of the undead as possible. Each booth is fitted with eight motion detectors that track the player’s movements to more efficientl­y attack them with zombies.

Network Arena:

A PC gaming suite, Network Arena is complete with individual and private group gaming stations. Each station in the arena is equipped with a high-speed internet connection and profession­al gaming equipment that can be rented by the hour with a large number of popular PC games to play. At full capacity, the Arena can hold 70 gamers in its individual stations and 30 stations in the eight private group gaming rooms.
