| - Having two young kids, 6 years old, I've been to my fair share of birthday parties in town. Laser Quest was one of my favorites! Oh, the kids liked it too. The venue is a bit on the small side but has everything you'd need for a birthday party, or just a fun night out. The entrance is filled with a couple air hockey tables, vending machines, and video games. Before the game starts, you're asked to give yourself a codename and this is how you're tracked inside (how many people you hit, how many hit you).Once you enter the fun zone, you're given a harness/vest equipped with three targets and a laser gun, asked the repeat the playroom rules, and off you go into a black light lit room (everything glows!). Each round is about 15 minutes and it is seriously a lot of fun, especially with a bunch of little kids.
The only thing I'd caution someone about is the harness/vest thing is heavy. Way too heavy for your average 6/7 year old (though I have to say the girls, including mine, seemed to struggle more than the boys). Parents can wear the harness/vest for their kid which allows said kid carry just the laser gun. The vest and gun are attached by a plastic string so your kid can't venture off without you.
I'd highly recommend this venue for a birthday party, especially if you have older kids.
