Q: How many people can play?

Sessions are private for groups of 2–6 players; pricing scales by group size.

School of Magic places you behind the wand in a private, hour-long virtual reality escape at Odyssey VR in Corby, England. Located at Eismann Way (NN17 5ZB), this experience compresses the thrill of a wizarding school into a cooperative puzzle romp for teams of two to six players. Instead of climbing towers or following a map, your group moves through richly rendered enchanted rooms, examines magical artefacts, and learns spell-based interactions to unlock the next mystery. What makes School of Magic stand out in this part of Northamptonshire is its level of embodied teamwork. The design favors physical collaboration: players must stand, move within a bounded play area, gesture to cast spells, and coordinate discovery under a 55-minute gameplay window. The environments are built from startlingly tactile visual cues—weathered stone, carved runes, brass fittings—and puzzle logic that rewards observation and cross-talk rather than speed. Staff at Odyssey VR brief your party before you enter, then monitor and provide hints, keeping the session private to your group so every success is yours. This is a family-friendly option near outdoor draws like Rockingham Forest and Corby’s industrial heritage, making it a good afternoon indoor complement to a day of trail walking. It also appeals to corporate groups or friend cohorts seeking problem-solving challenges that emphasize communication and creative thinking over reflexes or physical strength. Practical details: sessions run 60 minutes with about 55 minutes of gameplay. Bookings are private for groups of 2–6 players; pricing scales with group size. Check in at OdysseyVR in Corby ten minutes early for briefing. The experience is not recommended for pregnant guests and may not suit people with severe motion sickness; players must be able to stand and move within the play area. Free cancellation is allowed up to 24 hours before a booking; late cancellations may receive a voucher. Why visit? School of Magic is an efficient, high-value indoor adventure that blends theatrical set design with interactive VR mechanics. It’s an especially good choice when weather turns sour but your appetite for challenge doesn’t. For visitors passing through Northamptonshire, the escape offers a memorable, social alternative to pubs or museums: you’ll walk out of the play area having practiced teamwork, cracked a mystery, and experienced a compact, cinematic taste of wizardry without any prior skill. Whether you’re planning a family afternoon, a birthday outing, or an unusual team-building slot, School of Magic at Odyssey VR offers polished production values, private-team focus, and a clever puzzle core that gives adults and kids something to tinker over long after the session ends. Book early on weekends to secure preferred slots, especially for larger groups; evenings often fill quickly. Plan transport accordingly.
