LaserTag is an exciting trend sport in which players compete against each other in teams in a specially designed indoor playing area. A laser tag hall can be designed very differently depending on the facility and size of the area and offers various obstacles such as walls, walls, towers or columns to enable tactical moves and hiding places. In contrast, there is also outdoor laser tag, in which players compete against each other on an (outdoor) playing field.
The latest technical equipment is installed in the laser tag hall, which allows players to carry out exciting duels with special laser tag equipment. For this purpose, several "radio stations" are installed inside the hall, which receive the signals from the LaserTag vests and forward all game information to the game computer. This processes the data and displays the results on the score screen at the end of the laser tag game. The LaserTag vests and LaserTag phasers are equipped with sensors that register hits and automatically count the points.
Laser tag halls vary in size depending on the facility. Some arenas are just a few square feet, while others span hundreds or even over 1,000 square feet. The size of the hall also depends on the number of players and the type of game. However, most arenas have enough space to dodge and hide. Special effects such as fog, lights and sound effects can be integrated to make the gaming experience even more intense and realistic. Some facilities also offer special game modes such as Capture the Flag, King of the Hill or Team Deathmatch to offer players a varied challenge.
Laserdrome, laser tag hall and laser tag arena essentially describe the same thing and are often used interchangeably.
