Dear visitors,
⚠ Important Notice
For safety reasons, persons with a pacemaker are not allowed to enter our arena.
Below you will find a short guide explaining how a visit to our Laser Game arena works and what you should know before the game starts.
Each game lasts 15 minutes of actual playing time. There is approximately a 5-minute break between games for returning the equipment and briefing the next group.
🕒 When should you arrive?
Please arrive at the arena 15–20 minutes before your scheduled game so that we have enough time for preparation, team selection and the safety briefing.
👕 Recommended Clothing
- We recommend dark sports clothing and sturdy footwear.
- The arena is dark and uses artificial fog and UV lighting.
- Light-coloured and white clothing glows strongly under UV light, making you an easier target.
🎮 Before the Game at Reception
- Tell us your nicknames
Prepare your player names and, if applicable, your preferred team allocation.
- Choose a game mode
You can choose from 8 different game modes, ranging from classic team games to tactical variations.
- Choose your team colour
Available colours are red, blue, green, yellow, pink and light blue.
- Choose the music
You can enhance the atmosphere by selecting one of approximately 20 music sets.
🎯 Tactical Information for Teams
We recommend dividing players into teams of approximately equal size.
- You receive +150 points for hitting an opponent.
- You lose −50 points when you are eliminated.
With some scoring systems, a smaller team may therefore have a slight advantage because fewer players can accumulate negative points.
🦺 Putting on the Vest and Game Briefing
- Find your vest.
Once activated, the display on the gun will show your nickname.
- Put the vest on correctly.
The backpack-style section belongs on your back. Tighten and fasten the side straps securely.
- Hold the gun with both hands.
One hand must be on the trigger and the other on the front grip with the touch sensor.
- Arena lighting.
The button on the gun can be used to temporarily illuminate the arena.
🔫 How Hits Work
You can shoot at all illuminated sensors on your opponents. Each vest has 8 sensors, with another 2 sensors located on the gun.
When you are hit, the vest beeps, turns white and is deactivated for approximately 5 seconds.
When the vest is reactivated, it flashes for approximately one second. During this time, you can already shoot, but you cannot yet be hit yourself.
⚠ Safety Rules During the Game
NO RUNNING
Due to the dark environment, artificial fog and obstacles in the arena, running may result in collisions with other players or arena structures. Please move carefully and considerately.
DO NOT CLIMB ON THE OBSTACLES
Arena decorations and obstacles are not designed to support a person's weight. Climbing on them may cause damage and, more importantly, injury.
If anything happens to you
Leave the arena immediately and contact our staff at reception. They will assist you.
🏁 After the Game
- Leave the arena safely.
- Hang your vest on the hanger with the corresponding number. Always secure the gun correctly in its holder. Incorrect storage may damage the data cable and cause the vest to stop working.
- Our staff will show you the results on the monitor at the bar or reception and can print detailed scorecards for you.
⚙️ Settings for Advanced Players
On request, our staff can adjust certain game settings:
- Denser fog for a more intense atmosphere.
- Friendly fire – the option to hit members of your own team.
- Stronger shields – more hits are required to eliminate a player.
- Game marathon – several games combined into one uninterrupted session, for example 30 minutes or more of continuous play.
