What if it rains?

We play, unless it is a thunderstorm. If we have to abandon play, we refund pro-rata on time. Playing in the rain is very authentic :)

How do you get out?, Once you're out is that it, end of your day??

No, that would be way too hard! We are not quite that mean...really! When you're tagger is out you go back to your base and get reset. In the more advanced missions there are limited resets.

How do I know your out?

Well, your tagger wont work anymore! Depending on the game we are playing your tagger may get reset so you are back in the game.

Which missions do we get to play?

We play a variety of missions to suit all players.If you are organising a private group booking we can design missions to suit you.

Here's a sample of some of the game scenarios:

• Team Match - Wipe out the other team - this mission each team gets unlimited resets. The mission is over after a pre-set time (usually 30 minutes), the team that has taken the least resets wins. This mission is great warm-up because every player, plays the whole mission and its very forgiving of mistakes.
  
• Capture The Flag - pretty simple, just get the other teams flag to win. Make sure that your team is protecting their flag though or the other team just might get it!
  
• Evacuate The VIP. VIP's are selected from each team. This is generally the birthday boys or girls. The aim is to get the VIPS from A to B while keeping their taggers active for 15 minutes - when there is one minute to go an announcement is made and the VIP must get back within 60 seconds (and with at least 1 hit point left) to win. The VIP wears a bright vest to make him /her visible in the field.
  
• Last Man Standing. This is FUN! It's a crazy fast game - the last player left with at least one hit point wins!

How much does 1 game cost? What do you get?...

We don't charge on a single game basis, we charge per session, which is usually 2 1/2 hours (the first half hour is your mission briefing, kit out, photo opportunity etc). The current price list can be found on our Sessions and Prices page Sessions and Prices page
