| - Perhaps I am a kid at heart, or I just associate too much with children being a stay at home mom, but this place is AWESOME!! Here's a dating tip. If you and your significant other are bored of seeing a movie and going to dinner, try laser tag!! My husband and I went a couple of Fridays ago for the all you can play laser tag that begins at 8PM. Games are every 20 minutes on the dot, and it's $20 for the night (which is a steal since it's typically $8/match). We played 5 games and got our money's worth before my husband had to drag me out of there at 11PM. I wanted to stay until closing (midnight).
A week before we came here, I took my son and his friends to the adventuredome which also had laser tag. This is far superior. The vests are super light in comparison to the 15 pound suits of armor at the adventuredome. They go down to about below my rib cage so they would also easily fit small children. The guns are also light, but they do have a heat sensor so you have to put both hands on the gun. The inside is all black light and two stories with at least 6 different rooms. We were able to participate in different runs: teams (red vs blue), base (attack the other team's base) and free for all. The free for all was awful. Everywhere you turned, you were getting shot at, but luckily we only played it once.
On our trip here, I think there was only 1 guy older than us (we're 25). Haha. Everyone else was in their teens or younger, but it seems like they probably come here every week so they were crazy good! I got the hang of it after 1 round and my husband who is good at everything managed to make it to #1 in one round and top 3 always. The usual top 3 are the lame campers who just run in and sit at the same spot for 10 minutes waiting for people to walk by. On the way out, my husband and I were saying how this is pretty wholesome fun for teens. I did not hear these kids using foul language even though their parents weren't there, and they were totally just adorable teenage nerds. Definitely an awesome place for kids, teens, and adventurous adults alike.
My tips would be wear clothes you can run in (not run because that's not allowed ;), but strife and uh... skip... in). No lie, I was running like I was participating in a 10k and was getting sweaty.
Obviously, if you're going to be pseudo-running, wear decent shoes. Flats, sandals, tennis, whatever. Don't wear stilettos.
Check their website for other deals. I know Thursdays have 2 games for $12 rather than $16 if you want to try it out.
Only 30 players are allowed at a time, but there were about 50 people there, so if you want to play the next round, you have to run out of that room in a mad dash for the ticket counter so you can get a ticket for the next round.
In conclusion: this place is awesome. Go.
