When I arrived at Adrenaline Zone in St. Charles, MO a
group had just been taken in for a briefing session, so they whisked me back to
get in on this game with a group of teenage players. I walked in and saw the
briefing video in progress. O-M-G, this is the BEST briefing video I have ever
seen! First of all, the briefing room was unlike any that I have ever been in
before (and I've been in a lot). The room was set up like a control station at
a power plant, complete with a "live" (read mechanical) technician
named "Liza Tag"...too clever. :)
See the guy on the screen? He's an actor who delivered
the briefing as "mission instructions" before sending us into the
power plant. They apparently won an award for best briefing video from the ILTA
a few years back and that recognition was definitely deserved. It was
absolutely fantastic and reminded me of a mash-up between a cool Zone arena and
a themed escape room. The entire arena was decked out in the power plant theme.
And there were other characters to be found (courtesy of a talented haunted
house designer) including the poor guy who gets shocked by a power surge...meet
Cliff Hanger.
I enjoyed playing a couple of games with some local young
women. The Nexus Pro packs played a very smooth game...where was someone to
appreciate my accuracy?
The manager, Dawn, shared a wealth of information about
this one of a kind arena designed by Zone.
And I was impressed with their merch as well...more tag
swag!
I've got to say, this was one of the most creative
atmospheres and I like very much that they cater to a slightly older clientele.
This was not kiddie laser tag. This was a really unique arena and experience
from start to finish. Loved it!
