Family Battle Zone: Our Day at Lost Worlds Laser Tag

Last Saturday, my partner and I took our kids (ages 9 and 12) to Lost Worlds Laser Tag for a fun midday outing, and it turned out to be a perfect mix of high-energy adventure and family-friendly entertainment. We wanted something lively where everyone—young and adult—could engage, laugh, move around, and feel part of a shared experience. Lost Worlds delivered exactly that.

With busy schedules and more screens than ever, we craved an outing that got us all up and interacting. Lost Worlds stood out because it advertises a giant, multi-level laser tag arena with special effects, plus VR, bumper cars, mini-bowling and arcade games. The idea of immersive play for kids and meaningful fun for us adults made it a win. And the fact that all ages were clearly catered for sealed the deal.

When we arrived, the lights hit immediately: black-light walls, glowing corridors, misty archways and the buzz of kids gearing up. The lobby welcomed us with arcade machines, bumper car lights flashing, and a party-room area that suggested celebrations were common here. The staff greeted us with genuine warmth, handled the check-in quickly, and guided us toward gear and briefing. Our children’s eyes lit up as they slipped on vests and held laser phasers ready for battle.

We chose a standard session: a 30-minute laser tag round (three different games) which came with access to the arena and gear. After the first game, we added a VR session for our older child because they were excited about the “free-roam” style experience. The setup was smooth—explanation, gear fitting, safety rules, then we were in play.

The arena itself is impressive—multi-level platforms, neon glow walls, fog, angled corridors. Our first game was a team battle: kids versus adults. Within minutes we were crouching behind lighted barriers, peeking around corners, shouting “cover left!” and laughing when one of us got tagged out. The competitive streak mixed with playful antics made it fun.
In the second game we tried an objective mode: “capture the base twice before time runs out.” It added strategy and kept the kids engaged (and cheering) when we pulled a comeback.
Then for the VR add-on our older child stepped into a free-roam room—no tether, full movement, exploring virtual worlds of zombies and dragons. Meanwhile the rest of us watched from seating area, grabbed snacks, and compared scores.

Between matches we chilled in the party-room style lounge: kids traded game-credits for arcade turns, we grabbed pizza and drinks from the café, and we all shared highlights (“I flanked from the right and tagged you!”). It felt balanced: action bursts followed by cool-down social moments, perfect for families.

As we drove away, the kids were still buzzing—recounting their best tags, celebrating their wins, planning when we’ll return. My legs were pleasantly tired, my voice hoarse from cheers and playful shouts, and I felt genuinely connected to my family in a fun, active way. It wasn’t just an afternoon; it was a memory in motion. We laughed, competed, bonded—and left with smiles wide and hearts full. If you’re looking for a place where the whole family can play, escape the everyday, and feel alive together, Lost Worlds Laser Tag hits that spot. 5/5 – highly recommended for a family adventure.
