Or, if you’d rather read it out yourself, here’s what to say:
"Listen up, recruits!" I’m going to explain how to use the laser tag equipment.
First up — safety.
Laser Tag is a non-contact game. You must stay at least 1.5 metres away from everyone else at all times — that includes your teammates. The taggers have a great range, so there’s no need to get too close.
Do not grab anyone else's tagger. And everyone stays on the ground — that means no climbing.
The biggest safety risk is falling over. So whether you're indoors or outdoors, there is no running. Always watch where you’re going, especially when turning corners.
Now let’s talk about the taggers.
When you start the game, you'll have 5 health points. You can see this on the top left-hand corner of your display. When your health reaches zero, your tagger will be deactivated.
You can be tagged on your head sensors or the sensor on your tagger — so make sure to take cover!
When you're tagged, your tagger will say: 'You're Tagged.'
If you hear: 'You're Deactivated,' that means your health is zero. Head back to your team’s base.
Not sure if you’re out? Pull the trigger. If it says: 'You're Deactivated. Return to Base,' then yep, you're out for now.
Once you’re at your base, stand next to your team’s box and wait until it says: 'Reactivated.' Only your team’s box will work for this.
When you tag another player, you'll hear one of three sounds:
'Tagged' means you've landed a hit — great job!
'Deactivated' means you've knocked them out — even better!
'Deactivated Already' means they’re already out — move on and find a new target.
Now let’s talk about cheating. This part is important!
There are two main cheats — and neither is allowed.
First, do not move the boxes. They stay where they are.
Second, do not cover your sensors. No hands over them, no hiding them under hats, and definitely no stuffing headbands into your pockets or sitting on them.
Alright! That’s everything you need to know.
Let’s get ready to play!"
Leah from Brisbane hired a Laser Tag in a Box pack to entertain a bunch of energetic kids — and it was a massive hit!
"The kids had a blast! They loved bouncing the laser beams off mirrors and shiny surfaces. Laser Tag in a Box kept them entertained for hours with hardly any adult input!"
After the simple setup (just turning on the taggers and Medic Boxes with a key), the kids took over. The instructions were crystal clear and easy to follow, making it a breeze to get started.
Boys and girls aged 6 to 10 all got stuck in. When Leah asked what they thought, their answer was unanimous:
"Awesome!"
They even kept playing the next day as a family — another win thanks to the weekend hire! They tried a bunch of the pre-set games and also made up their own. One of the favourites?
“Boys vs Girls”!
Even though it rained the night of the party, that didn’t stop the fun. The whole setup worked just as well indoors, with the kids sneaking around doorways and hallways. It was a total success.
"I’d recommend this to families with kids aged 8 to 16 — the grown-ups had a blast too! It’s an excellent party idea that keeps kids engaged for hours."
Leah’s top tip?
Plan for at least 3 hours of party time so the kids can enjoy multiple rounds, plus have time for snacks, drinks, and cake breaks.
