THE first and only laser tag hub in Cebu and the Visayas is now open for adrenaline junkies out there who are on the lookout for an all-new adventure. Laser Blitz Laser Tag officially launched its combat zone last November 14 at the second level of Parkmall.
Laser tag is a recreational activity that allows players to garner points by tagging opponents with an infrared-emitting device called phaser gun. Pretty much like Airsoft and Paintball only that it won’t require you to get bruised up and painted all over in the end, the objective of the combat game is to shoot the players of the opposing team using the phaser gun inside the 240-square meter arena structured like a maze and illuminated only with glow-in-the dark paints. Players get points for every opponent tagged and the points of each team are summed up at the end of the game to determine the winner.
With the kind of thrill and excitement that the activity brings, Laser Blitz Laser Tag will surely be the number one go-to for cliques of all ages. For only 150 pesos per person during weekdays and 180 pesos per person on weekends and holidays, players must form a team with a minimum of eight players and a maximum of 24 to get the warfare started.
And while you and your friends wait for your game to commence, a Foosball table, air hockey table and bar outside the arena will help you warm up, chill out for a while and tune up your gears.
Laser tag is also a perfect way to destress with friends after a taxing finals week, strengthen camaraderie among officemates or spend a quality time with your family. Laser Blitz is open from 10a.m. to 9p.m. daily at the second level of Parkmall.
