It's All About Efficiency

Every laser tag operator in the world runs their business a little bit differently, but in a way that's geared towards making the most money. This often means running games in ways that the customers have the most fun or playing time. After all, happy customers are returning customers.


While the exact magical formula for running the most efficient laser tag business will never be known, favored best practices can be shared. We've talked to some of the most popular laser tag businesses using Predator Games and asked what makes them so successful. Each has a slightly different strategy depending on their business. The mobile operators run things differently than brick and mortar users. These are the top 5 things they all have in common.

1. Short and fast games. Usually lasting 2-3 minutes, sometimes up to 5.
2. Small playing areas. This varies outside, but too much space is a problem indoors.
3. Generic Gun/Player names. This allows operators to quickly hand out and receive guns.
4. Short bookings. Birthday parties or groups will enjoy 1, 2, or 3 hours. More, and boredom might set in. Shorter time forces people to have more fun throughout.
5. Smaller groups. 6-12 is ideal, 20 max.

The 3 most popular simple games that everyone enjoys and allows lots of playing time are outlined below. Feel free to make your own modifications based on your needs. These are geared towards a younger crowd.

1. 3 minute game. Unlimited health. Unlimited ammo. No respawn or medic. Most hits wins.
2. 3 minute game. 2 health. 200 ammo. No respawn or medic. Last man/team alive wins.
3. 5 minute game. 1 health. 300 ammo. 30 Second respawn. No medic. Most kills at end of game wins.

Obviously there are plenty of ways that work for anyone. The above is just a taste of what the most popular fields are using. If you would like additional info and help on setting up optimal games for your business, please email social@predatorgames.com!
