How does the pricing work? If you pick up the system yourself, the price for the blasters is $240 for 6 blasters, including the starting module (resets the blasters and starts each game). If you need us to bring the system out to you, the price for the blasters is $200 for 6 blasters for up to 4 hours. Your delivery charge is based on your zip code. You can find your rate if you click here. The rate is Class 1.
What about the maze? The inflatable maze is priced separately. You do not need it to use the laser tag system but it does greatly increase the experience. With the maze, you can rent the main cross piece (30' x 30'). You can also rent out the 4 auxiliary pieces. The last option is to rent the main cross piece WITH the 4 auxiliary pieces. The later makes for a 45' x 60' maze that can be reconfigured on site. You can use it one way for a while, and in a couple of minutes, you can change the maze around for a different look and feel for the duration of the rental. There are over 36 configurations that can be made with this maze. The price for the maze is $98 extra. The delivery fee for the maze and blasters is Class 2.
How does the system work? Each blaster is a self-contained unit, meaning, there are no cumbersome vests to wear, no head piece with cable dangling to worry about you kids getting caught on something. The blasters require both hands to fire, there are no moving parts, the trigger is touch sensitive and can be operated by someone as young as six years old. The sensors are resident on each blaster that allow opponents to tag you. The game starts by all blasters together with the "referee". The referee pushes the start button on the starter module, the blasters all reset, you hear "Go!" and everyone has 6 seconds to find a hiding spot. After 6 seconds, you hear "Go! Go! Go!", game on. When you are tagged, you will hear "You are hit." When you tag someone in the barrel, you will hear "Good shot!" (100 pts).
How does scoring work? When you are tagged, you lose 20 points (and your blaster becomes inoperative for 6 seconds), when you tag someone else, you score 40 points, unless you tag them straight on in the barrel, that is 100 points. Everyone begins with 5000 points. At the end of the game, you will hear "Game Over!". Scores can then be viewed on each blaster by pulling the trigger. If you are playing teams (3 red, 3 blue) simply add the scores by color. If you are playing ever kid for themselves, highest score wins.
