Scotland’s premier indoor laser tag arena, rated 4 Star Activity Centre by Visitscotland. Laser tag is a hi-tech action game where each player has a phazer or tagger which emits a harmless laser beam for aiming and an IR beam (like your TV remote) which transmits information about which taggers have hit which packs, and where. The point of the game is to try and score as many points as possible by tagging players in the opposing team, whilst not being tagged yourself. When players are tagged they are ‘deactivated’ for a few seconds. The heavily space themed arena, complete with ultra violet lights, sound system and smoke creates an atmospheric playing experience.
Please wear trainers or boots, no sandals or heels! Unlike paintball you don’t need to wear masks, gloves or ammo belts. Lazer Planet is indoors but the arena is unheated so please dress appropriately.
Lazer Planet has been built to provide a safe and fun experience. The equipment uses Infra-Red technology, which is a safe invisible light, and low power lazers. There are no projectiles like paintball to cause bruises. Our Game Referees monitor each mission to ensure all rules of engagement are followed.
Participants aged 6 to 13 years must be accompanied by an adult (one adult can take responsibility for multiple kids).
Combat City is a military simulation, using a variety of realistic weapons to complete military objectives.
In laser tag all the weapons are the same, and players are immortal, encouraging a different style of combat.
A good arena like Lazer Planet in Clydebank has a Sci-Fi space theme, with a darklight maze, smoke and atmospheric music. Great fun, and a real blast to play, but completely different from the military realism of Combat City.
It’s the difference between ‘Star Wars and ‘Call of Duty’!
It’s all about the benefits of sophisticated technology; the adrenalin rush is the same! Lazer Planet taggers fire faster, and are more accurate. Even better by firing Infra-red light there are no projectiles to cause welts on your body, or cost you money every time you fire. There is no cheating at Lazer Planet, however many referees a paintball field has it’s still easy to wipe off a hit.
There is also no need to wear masks that mist up.
There is no physical contact so young kids can play well alongside adults, as they understand the missions and gun capabilities from playing video games. However at weekends Saturday and Sunday afternoons are primarily Birthday Parties, and where possible we will try to put similar ages together. The sessions are all Open Play, unless you make an exclusive booking for 24 players at peak time, or 12 players off-peak.
