the Maxime Geek Festival 2022 will take place this weekend, November 5 and 6, 2022. After a particularly successful fourth edition last year, this family convention is back in force with many activities to amuse young and old alike. During these two days, visitors will be invited to take part in numerous activities and initiations, to rummage in the specialized stands, to take advantage of the arcade terminals with free access, to compete in video game tournaments, to dive into virtual reality and finally to participate in creative workshops. We will be there with our stand dedicated to VR.
You will find, below, the program of activities over the two days. Our stand will allow you to discover virtual reality, to play alone or with others. There will be, in addition to our Oculus Quest 2 headsets, our jack-up simulator, an Oculus Quest Pro, a PICO 4 and maybe even a VIVE Focus 3 that will be available for testing. We will also offer an experience of laser quest (1v1 Where 2v2) in free roaming several times over the two days.
