Salas interectivas
La sala Vortex, donde al entrar a un pequeño túnel, se experimenta un mareo similar al que produce el consumo de bebidas embriagantes. De esta manera los jóvenes pueden conocer la sensación y decidir si serán o no consumidores de alcohol.
También está el llamado Bar del cocainómano donde se sitúa al usuario en una pequeña barra de bar y con la ayuda de imágenes en tercera dimensión, puede presenciar la conversación entre un vendedor de drogas y un consumidor, además de observar el delirio que causa este tipo de substancias.
