Laser Quest Rochester

Went here for a Unilocal event. The staff were almost impossibly cheerful and enthusiastic, but not in that annoying, fake way that sometimes puts you off. They really improved the experience, in my opinion
The layout of the actual arena was nice, with two levels and loads of places to sneak up and blast people. Sadly, I sucked at it, but it was still great fun.

I know I am not the target demographic for this place but we brought 25 of our summer college interns here for a team building/​«get out of the office» activity. I somewhat reluctantly went along since they needed a few more players and ended up having a really fun time — as did most of the group.
The layout was more expansive and interesting than I imagined (never having been to one of these before I have nothing to judge it against). The three games, one individual and two team, were quite entertaining but by the third I had enough and we were all very hot and sweaty (more AC would have been nice). The workers were friendly but could have done a better job of adjusting their «shtick» (ie delivery of instructions) since this was not a 10 year old’s birthday party…
I am sure we will again bring next summer’s interns here.

I’ve been here a bunch of times, it’s really fun place to go.
The laser arena in really big, bigger than any other one I’ve been too. A bunch of people can play at one time which makes it fun if you go with a large party.
I would give it five stars but the only downfall is there is no team play, you have to just team up on your own.

I’m not sure if it’s odd to rate a laser tag place. I’m really no connoseur, but this place wasn’t bad. They have a huge arena. Literally twice the size of any place I’ve ever played in before. The layout of this place is kind of odd. We walked into this place already knowing what teams the 8 of us wanted to be on. When we’re paying for our round of three games (some kind of special that they have go on during the summer, though I think it ends Labor Day weekend) for $ 18 a person we were pumped. We go into the briefing room when called and move through to collect our gear. And what do you know? They don’t allow team play. It is an every-​man-​for-​themselves type game here. Unfortunate to be sure, but we still teamed up on our own to combat the underage kids whose fathers liked to use them as bait. At the end of the game they like to round everyone up in a corner to display each player’s score and hand out stat sheets. It’s definitely a move to put on a show for all the little kids. They don’t do it in any type of order, but they do point out the two highest scorers. All in all, a fun place to play if you’re bored and want something to do.
Note: There is a dude who comes here all dressed in black and seems to admire gorilla war tactics when in this place. He’s not really scary, but he will come from out of no where and tag the crap out of you.
