Good imagination and design. Good VR equipment and amazing sound effect. In a word, well experience that deserves to have. But one advice is that we hope there can be somewhere to sit down or squating to take a little break during the VR journey. The whole time of standing can be a bit tiring.

Ticketing was good, The Show was also good. The only issue is that you would run into other people also on the same experience.Emmanuel
