We play a variety of games and vary their lengths based on the age of the kids. Here is a list of some of them:

Free For All – AKA Every Man for Himself – Most Hits/Kills wins the game: We see who the best shooters are in the group (Then we divide the better shooters up and put all the recruits into Red and White Teams!)

Basic Tag/Elimination – or what we call our Team Death Match: Equal teams, equal lives, teams start out in their own forts, each team attacks the other. When gamers lose their lives they must sit until the game is over. We can add a medic and/or respawns (Usually we do this in the second game we play so it adds an additional factor and changes the gamerz’ strategy) This is another simple game – eliminate the enemy, time ranges (depends on age) 5-20 minutes

Capture the Flag – Each base has a flag. Capture the other team’s flag and return it to your base to win. In case each team has the other’s flag, the first one back to their own base and yells “Game Over” (or blows a whistle if playing on a large field) is the winner. If a player is “dead” while holding the flag (before he makes it back to his base) he must stand still until a teammate grabs the flag and advances it toward the base. Every player should start with only 1 life. When a player is “dead” he must walk off to the side of the field, unless he is the one holding the flag.

Protect the President/Birthday Child/VIP (Very Important Person) – Each team is assigned a president. Each team knows who the other team’s president is. The presidents start with 4 or 5 lives, everyone else with only 2 each. The object of the game is to protect your president and “get” the other team’s president. The team that kills the other team’s president first wins.

Attack and Defend your Fort – Give each player on one team 9 lives. Give each player on the other team 1 or 2 lives each. The team with 9 lives is the attacking team, while the other team secretly hides randomly behind the bunkers, they are the defenders. The referee uses a stopwatch to time how fast the attackers can eliminate all the defenders. When done, the defenders become the attackers and the previous attackers become the defenders. Whichever team can eliminate the other team in the fastest time wins.

Paintball style – Everyone starts with only one life. When you’re “dead” you hold your gun in the air and walk off the field and wait until the game is over. The winning team is the one that eliminates) the entire other team. People play a lot more carefully with only one life. The game is the same as Elimination above.

Medic – Each team is assigned a medic. The medic starts out with four lives. Everyone else has only 1 life each. As long as your team’s medic is still alive you can run to the referee to get reset if you’re “dead”. But when your medic is dead no one on your team can get reset. Of course, the medics can never get reset. So the object of the game is to protect your medic while going after the other team’s medic. The team that eliminates all the players, including the medic, on the other team wins.

Yes, we offer several party favor ideas such as our dog tags, Gamez on Wheelz T-shirts and now our new Party Favor Package that includes a Tumbler cup, pencils, pens, sticker, 2 tattoos, bookmark, a glow in the dark silicone wristband and an assortment of candy.

Save money – unlimited ammo, No Pain, No Bruises – Our guns fire harmless, eye-safe infrared signals, not projectiles, so you don’t get hurt when you get hit
Play for longer – You can take numerous hits before your “health level” reaches zero and you are “killed”, unlike other combat games where you might be sitting out watching from the sidelines after taking just one hit we can set you up with unlimited lives! Shoot great distances – no more watching your opponents waving at you just out of range, our guns shoot over distances of up to 150 feet No steamed up safety goggles – our guns fire harmless eye-safe infrared signals so there’s no need to wear eye protection gear. Great for the whole family – we accept players from age 6+, unlike most paintball sites where the minimum age is 12+. (6-year old’s require parent participation and assistance) Cheating is eliminated – once you are “killed” the onboard software in your gun automatically disables your gun to prevent you from continuing to shoot.

A player should wear clothes that they do not mind getting dirty. All players should wear sneakers, or comfortable hiking footwear. Open toed shoes, bare feet, and/or sandals are NOT allowed on the field of play. We also recommend long pants versus shorts to prevent scratches from bushes. We encourage all players to come ready to play in their camo gear!

Absolutely, our laser guns have an “indoor” setting. So it works well in gyms, halls, buildings, recreation centers or warehouses.

No, our laser tag guns use infrared, just like your TV remote control. It’s totally safe. Players shoot an invisible and harmless beam.

NO Headbands – NO LICE issues (Moms’ biggest concern when interviewed) Authentic battle field look with army style inflatable bunkers for most of our packages
We have the lightest weight authentic laser tag guns (2.9lbs) in the industry. Our guns are the actual paintball guns converted to laser tag guns (Everyone appreciates our lighter guns especially when running around for 2 hours) Well coached and trained GameMaster to lead missions. A variety of missions for all ages of players that keeps them engaged and playing not sitting and waiting for the next game to be over. Fair play rules, team work strategies, team balancing (fair teams) and good sportsmanship are enforced.

Just like the booking process, it is always subject to availability. Additional hours may be booked the day of the event if we do not have another scheduled party. It is always best to book additional hours before the event to assure enough playing time.

The customer is responsible for providing the playing space and has already ensured us that no State, County, Municipality, Householder Association, bylaws, etc. prohibit activities like Laser Tag. If your Laser Tag Party cannot take place for any of the former or similar reasons, payment is still due in full.

Yes, however we make it easy for parents to sign just one liability release form if they agree to accept full responsibility for any accidents or damages on their own property for all players/guests they invited. If the homeowner does not want to accept that responsibility then it is up to the parent/homeowner to collect a Liability Release Forms for all those guests playing and then provide us those release forms.

A large grass field is preferred but we can set up in gyms, warehouses or concrete surfaces. High winds may become a problem and if so we reserved the right to take down all inflatable bunkers for the safety of the players and/or our equipment.

Our guns can operate in light to moderate rain. In the event of heavy rain where we cannot continue with your party, our rate will be prorated after the 1st 50% in which we must collect if we have already set up the playing field. If possible an alternative indoor venue should be available for bad weather days to avoid any charges. We are not responsible for the weather; however, the GameMaster is responsible for making a weather related play/no-play decision that protects the players and equipment.

SoCal Gamez covers all of San Diego County from Carlsbad to the border and out to El Cajon or Escondido and San Marcos. There is an additional fuel surcharge to get to and from Oceanside, Murrieta, Temecula and Alpine and additional transit time has to be added in to cover those areas. We do Not travel north of Temecula or Oceanside or East of Alpine. We do Not cross the border into Mexico.

Rescheduling an event is always an option and can be done one time without incurring any cancellation charges. In the event of light rain the day of your party, it is always your call on whether to proceed with the party or not. Once we are set up, we are committed to the event and the full party price must be charge regardless of any precipitation. Cancellations made 7 or more days prior to an event will not incur any cancellation charge. Cancellations made less than 7 days prior to an event will incur a non-refundable cancellation charge equal to the amount of full event.

Our games are best played from age 7 and up. However, with parent participation and assistance; we will take a 6-year-old party.

We set the game times anywhere from 5-30 minutes. Older kids usually like longer timed games. We shorten that time to 5 minutes when other kids are waiting to play.

This will depend on the package that you purchased but range from 10-18 players/game. Usually, any more than 18 gamerz running around on one field makes things too congested and might result in one player running into another accidentally.

KIDS SAFETY is the most important thing to us. It is your responsibility to be sure all kids follow the rules of both SoCal Gamez and your own homeowner’s insurance policy. We are not responsible for kids actions and/or lack of good judgment from kids running out into the street. Keep the really young kids who are not playing away from the area where we are playing for everyone’s safety and security. If you are hosting an event/party at a park we highly recommend contacting the park and recreation departments of your city to check their reservation policies. We highly recommend making your reservations with us as far out as you can if you are set on a specific date and time. If you are flexible with your date and time we usually can fit you in within 2 to 3 weeks from your desired date. For the best field set up we recommend an area of 50 x 30 to 60 x 40 feet. Natural trees and bushes make great barriers. We also provide several inflatable bunker packages and will work with you to create the best battlefield experience for the kids. All animals and pets should be restrained, or kept indoors, during setup and breakdown of your party. Be sure all dog stool has been cleaned up if the kids will be running around your yard. Big TIP: Your booked time period with us starts on time as long as we arrive 15 minutes prior to your requested time. We highly recommend that you have pre-cleared a location for us to park in the front of the field or house that we are playing at and that you have cleared the battlefield for any hazards or other objects that would be in the way of where we are placing bunkers and the kids are running around. Unfortunately, we lose a lot of time when either cars or other objects are not cleared prior to us arriving.
