| - While we were in Las Vegas, we decided to look into a few things we could do with our nine year old girl. So, we checked out Groupon deals and took advantage of a mini golf and laser tag deal for this place. The concept sounded pretty cool and, even though I am approaching 32 years old, I am always up for a game of laser tag.
This place is located in a small shopping center / strip mall and doesn't appear to to be anything special. The man working the front counter was friendly and informative and made sure the family in front of us was a few holes ahead before allowing us to start as to not interrupt each other's game.
The course itself is pretty basic, but the 3D aspect, neon colors, pop-culture and kid-themed holes and black lights make it a very unique experience. From Disney, to Mario, to American theme, to space; there was a different feel to each of the 18 holes. We were able to get through our game at a steady pace while never interrupting anyone else's game or being disrupted ourselves.
The laser tag room wasn't very big, but a perfect size for the group we played with. it was an every-man/woman-for-him/herself and I always targeted the youngest kids because they helped my score. Unfortunately the other parents took advantage of my reckless style of play and I was hit quite a bit. I ultimately fell shy of the laser tag crown, but took home second place.
If you are in Las Vegas with children, give this place a shot. Don't expect anything fancy, but it's a different experience and fun for the whole family. Just pray you don't get stuck in the venue at the same time as a mother of 12, because then I imagine it would ruin the experience.
