Impressively, LI Press awarded Laser Kingdom 1st Place for Best Interactive Game Center in 2012. In addition, their reviews on Google are pretty good.
High tech facilities and full party packages are a few of the things you can look forward to in Laser Kingdom. The immersive experience is enhanced with such a well-designed arena and state of the art blasters.
I would definitely recommend this place if you’re throwing a party with many guests. They have a party promo where you can have 3 games of laser tag, a private party room, a host and a laser tag referee.
You’ll also have pizza, ice cream, cake, beverages, invitations, candles and paper goods included in the promo. Unfortunately, the party length is limited to only an hour and a half.
Laser Kingdom also hosts events of its own. As of today, there are 3 kinds of events; of course, these are subject to change at any time.
My favorite is Pizza Night because you can play unlimited laser tag and get free pizza and beverages; of course, each person pays a fee. V.I.P. Mission Pass and Friday Players Night are also great events where players can get a good deal to play laser tag.
Still, if you’re simply looking to play laser tag, this place has a terrific playing area. With awesome lights, barricades, and spray-painted walls, there’s a sense of excitement that just washes over you.
