It is simply by the nature of offices and confined workspaces that tensions will build between co-workers from time to time. The trick is to disable them before they become real-world problems or even actions with irreparable consequences. Or… maybe it’s time for a fun team building activity.
Enter Laser Tag: imaginative, interactive, adrenaline-pumping, futuristic fun for the whole office, especially perhaps the boss. Sure, the manager may find himself in the crosshairs most of the time, but never mind, it’s all great fun.
Lazgam Laser Games is the setting for the action, located on the fifth floor of the Holiday Inn at Sukhumvit 22, just before the rapidly developing Em District. Enjoy the smoke and strobe lights as you make your way through the 500 square meter maze, trying to avoid your opponents’ radars as they search for you. Is this a blast from the past, almost waiting for the Bee Gees to start blasting through the speakers? Or a mission to the future? It’s all up to you and your teammates to choose.
There are several different games available: Classic Challenger, in which up to 32 players divided into 2 to 6 teams fight for fame and glory; Alien Invasion, set in the year 2050 when aliens take over the city; Blaster Boost, an elite mission that requires daring, cunning, and stealth; Special Agents, in which you defend VIPs from rival forces; and Last Survivors, where you mercilessly eliminate your rivals to survive and win.
Each player sports a multi-sensor vest with their own built-in speakers, not to mention their critical laser pistol. So it’s every man or woman, or every team, for themselves. You quickly immerse yourself in the action and are amazed at how real everything has suddenly become. You check the information panel on your vest to see who shot you and where you were shot. Fifteen minutes go by in the blink of an eye.
Then it’s time to regroup and play again. All those petty office politics are vaporized by increasingly precise laser weapons. The play is a way to let off steam, work together and let your imagination figure everything out. When it’s all over, everyone is laughing and once again working as a team: the psychic work is left on the battlefield.
In conclusion, the next time you are in Bangkok for a business meeting or MICE event, be sure to set aside an hour or two to have fun playing Laser Tag. Corporate Laser Tag events are available to meet your specific needs, with group pricing. It’s a great way for colleagues to network and develop leadership skills, as well as being the perfect reward and incentive for staff. Remember: shoot, don’t scream.
