ELLSWORTH, Maine (WABI) Danielle Nelson, co-owner of Rush Hour Gaming said "My husband and I opened the Escape rooms in December and then we wanted to do a gaming aspect of the business we wanted to do something new and different that people couldn't do all the time at home and so that's when we stepped into the virtual reality.

We have a variety of games we really try to be family friendly so we have some fun for all ages."

"We have Arizona Sunshine for the zombie apocalypse lovers."

"We were excited to be like the first in the state to offer this.

"The Omni Vertex is super cool and you actually can get a workout while you're playing because you get totally into it and you really feel like you're in that moment.

You want to be harnessed in and you have to wear special shoes but you're safe you're not going to fall you're not going to get hurt."

"You can also have birthday parties or corporate parties team building and things like that."

"We have two very unique escape rooms we created them ourselves and you actually have a furnished and themed decor room according to the theme that you go in and you have to see like how is this room a puzzle in order to escape the room."

"So we just thought this would be a fun way to have something new to do in the community."
