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.
Tag is great for people because it is an active game that can wear people out and provide them with fantastic exercise. If you know that you are dealing with players who have mobility issues or younger players who may not be able to handle long periods of activity, you may want to keep matches short and switch out players at regular intervals. Instead of physically contacting other players, in a laser tag bout one player will use a laser gun to trigger a sensor.
One version which is popular in San Diego Ca, involves some elements of hide-and-seek as well. Players may move through an area that has been set up with obstacles and other objects. Players will attempt to stalk one another and hit each other with the beam before they themselves are tagged. Depending on the rules of a match, players may be knocked out for a period of time or considered "dead" and unable to continue the match.
There are facilities that are set up to play this game permanently. They usually have equipment that you can rent there rather than expecting players to bring their own. Some can be quite complex and have obstacles, different levels and even smoke machines and dim lighting. All of these things can combine to challenge older players but younger players may become lost, frustrated or frightened.
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.
The age of your players should affect the number of rules that you have in any game. Very young players may do best with less structured matches as it can reduce the level of player frustration. If players have tried this game before you may want to add in a few more rules as their age level increases. Just remember to keep an eye on the players to make sure they are not getting tired.
Regardless of how experienced your players are, if there is a large number of them you may want to try dividing them up into smaller groups. If you are doing so, you may want to make sure that there is a good mix of experience levels and ages. If you are working with younger players, keeping all of the same players at similar ages can help ensure that the games are fun and that the players enjoy themselves.
As you can see, its not hard to find a version of this game that will work for your next party. All you need to keep in mind is the number of players, their age or experience level, and the amount of space you have to work with and you, too can have a fun and exciting event that your guests will remember.
