Planning an event can be stressful and finding activities that everyone will like can be particularly challenging. If you are dealing with a group of individuals who like to be active, you may want to consider one of the many laser tag games that are available. There are several different options that you can pick from. Here are tips and tricks that you can use to find the right version for you.
In traditional tag, one individual is "it". They then chase the other players and attempt to tag them. The first player who is tagged then becomes "it". There are many different variations of this basic game. In the laser version, players wear sensors on their bodies and attempt to tag each other using a hand-held device that emits a laser beam. Like standard tag, this version also has several different variations.
Older players may want to try a version that has tactical elements in it as well as the athletic aspects of running. Some versions played in San Diego Ca include hiding in and around various structures and attempting to take out other players by zapping them. Winning can be accomplished either by not being zapped or, in some versions, having your gun register the highest number of points from zapping other players.
You may want to consider going to a facility that has a permanent set up. Often this will involve ramps, different levels, platforms and barriers that players can hide behind and climb on. Some others will have smoke machines, interesting lighting set ups and even music. They often have equipment that you can rent which is nice if you do not want to purchase anything.
When preparing to play this game, each player will put on sensors. These are usually located on the front and back of the torso. Each player will also be given a laser gun that emits a beam. This beam strikes a sensor and a hit is recorded. Some games simply record a hit, others will cause the sensor to vibrate or register a different number of points depending on which sensor is triggered.
If you have younger children who will be playing, you may want to simply allow them to run around and play much like a standard game of tag. Adults, older children, or a mixture of the two may have more fun if there are obstacles and some strategy involved. This is especially true if they have an interest in paintball or other similar activities. You may want to set up a capture-the-flag type of scenario.
You should also decide whether you want to divide your group of players into smaller groups and then have the winners of each match play off against one another. This can help keep things manageable as well as reducing the amount of equipment you will need to have on hand.
You may be surprised at how fun this game can be. Whether you rent equipment or buy it, host a game at your home or travel to a facility to play, you may find that you end up spending hours playing match after match.
