Laser Quest-Calgary

Our other plans did not come through so we decided to give this location a try and boy was it worth it. It is a bit busy at times but the maze is so big that it can handle a party of 20. The staff is very respectful, enthusiastic and full of energy. It was very economical as well. They had a special deal when i was there so look out for thosedays. Fun for adults as well.

I think that I will always be a kid at heart. Boy, did I have a blast playing laser tag!
So this wasn’t my first rodeo. Laser Quest has a great two story facility arena for you to practice your zombie apocalypse survival skills. What more could you ask for?
This was my first time playing at Laser Quest. They have everything organized in phases. Phase 1 brings you to pay for your game. Phase 2 has you registering your «codename». Phase 3 is the briefing room. For all of the first timers, this is where everything gets broken down, (if the «Marshall» can keep the room quiet enough from all the excitement)
And then, away you go! There were some people in my game who were basically the masters of Laser Tag. I probably got zapped by them 50 times. There were others who weren’t so skilled, so it was definitely a fun challenge!
There were a total of 29 people in my game. Can you believe I placed 11^th? I mean c’mon. That’s great! My friend that came with me on the other hand, placed 28^th… But A for effort right?
This would be a great place for corporate events, birthday parties, and any other time you want to get out and shoot lasers at people!
Can’t wait to go again.

I used Laser Quest for my son’s 10^th birthday party last April and was amazed at how much fun I had playing along with the kids. The place is well set up with lockers that open from both the main area and the private party room so it is easy and convenient to store supplies, gifts and coats. There is also the option to order pizza or bring in your own food (which we did). They even had a fridge for us to put some of our food and drinks in.
My daughter had so much fun that we recently had her party here as well. Again, it was easy and fun for us and all of the kids had a blast. NOTE: The place is very loud which means we don’t have to worry about the kids acting like kids.

I love laser quest
I love everything about laser quest
Great fun! Great game.
New maze is good, but not quite as good as the old one, but still good!

My sons 8^th birthday.
16 screaming kids in my group.
All fuelled on chocolate and chips.
I took them into the maze and destroyed them like a god among puny mortals. I crushed them and made them flee before me as washed them in the showers of laser death I rained down.
I am a birthday party slayer.

Super fun to go with Friends Great attitude with the people fun and enthusiastic!
its a fun sport to do! plus you get to shoot your friends with Lasers for revenge lol
hehe! Great layout of the ramps and love the rules that they have in place! Perfect for
Birthday parties to!

Plenty of fun. The arena itself is great, the equipment works well, and kids and adults alike have an absolute blast. The only thing I don’t like is that the arena is extremely dusty, which can (and does) cause problems for people with breathing problems. Just a heads-​up.

Nothing better than getting some much needed cardio! I went to laser quest with a bunch of my coworkers and we had a blast, minus the fact that we got beat by a bunch of kids. Laser quest was fun, it was the perfect size, and we had breaks inbetween rounds, but I guess that means more to me than anyone else given my lack of exercise. Games are about 9 bucks for adults so it wasn’t too bad. The marshals for our games were good. It was a good time if you’re just down to play some lasertag.

A number of years back, I was invited to my nephew’s birthday party being held at Laser Quest.

We’ve all been to these sorts of events — someone books a «party room» at a place like the zoo, Playtopia, Petland, whatever. A room with kids and cake and presents where we all do our time, we hope the kids have fun, and then we go home.
The surprising thing about the Laser Quest version is how much fun ** I ** ended up having. Not just pretend-​fun for kids’ sake. Oh no… serious, real, actual fun!
And that was what made that first particular event different. From little kids, to adults, you can ALL enjoy yourselves while competing against each other. For real!
There’s no need for anyone to «hold back,» or break up into age groups, like you might in other adult /​kid situations (hey, who wants to drill a kid in the pumpkin with a dodgeball).
This is unique in it’s ageless competitiveness, and it’s harmless, painless fun.
I’ve been hooked ever since I first tried it. Whenever the opportunity comes up: kid parties, corporate or sports team building events, etc. — I’m in!
The guts… the glory… of seeing my cheesy player-​name at the top of the leaderboard, strutting to the front to claim my victory scores.
In your FACE, little kids! Mwa hahahahaha!
Unilocal’s 30 Day Challenge 2012 — ²²⁄₃₀

I’m embarrassed with how much I love laser tag. Seriously! I told my friends I was competitive about it, but I don’t think they believed me until we started playing.
I don’t think I’ve ever had a bad time here. So much is dependant on the crowd and I can’t blame the venue for who decides to play. Last weekend we decided to play two games. Unfortunately they were booked pretty solidly so we were only able to get a 7pm and a 9pm game in. The later game was vastly more fun.
I highly recommend that any adults who want to play go for the later games. There was a birthday party of really young boys at the earlier game and it kind of felt like I was playing Xbox live with the insults they kept throwing at us. Unbelievable. However the later game was mostly adults which made for a more challenging and enjoyable time.
Also make sure you try the laser maze at least once. No one knows it’s there hiding in the corner but it’s a great way to kill time when you’re waiting for your game to start.

Good for kids? Need you ask? It’s also great for adults (at least those who are still young at heart). Been here enough times for birthday parties that I almost know the player’s code of conduct by heart (not that it’s followed, especially the part about not running through the maze). The new location is a lot cleaner than the old one, but it’s still a bit tricky to find because the entrance isn’t on the Macleod Trail side.

Can I say something? Laser Quest is amazing. A friend and myself were tasked to take care of a Finnish girl in Calgary for the day. We started at a decent hour, figured out she didn’t really want to do anything we liked to do, so I suggested we go to Laser Quest in an act of complete random desperation. I hadn’t been since the tender age of 13, when I still thought it was cool to call myself «Vader» or «Your Butt.» And I always came in last. I was a Laser Quest loser, and just a loser.
So we went based on this kind of sad nostalgia, found the place had moved to about a block south of the Macleod Tr. S Canadian Tire. We went in, and decided to take the 3 games for $ 20 deal. We were the only non-​parents in there over the age of 15. That did not stop me from completely enjoying shooting a plastic laser gun for 60 consecutive minutes.
Oh man, it was awesome. Awesome. Awesome. I came in 2^nd twice. That’s all.

Laser quest is a perfect location for anyone looking for a fun, engaging, and challenging activity. Perfect for a wide age range, from those sugar-​powered tykes, to over-​grown men-​child. My recent visit was for the Calgary Corporate challenge. The new location is great and easier to find. They also modified the course which for me seemed way easier to move around to/​from the two levels.
Make sure you follow the rules stated by the facilitators, its no fun when people get hurt on the account of them getting carried away with competitiveness. Oh, another piece of advice, don’t wear anything bright or white, you become a walking neon beacon under those black lights!
But despite most people claiming to be top-​notch scorers, I must confess that I SUCK at laser tag. I don’t know why. I’m a master COD player and have PWNED people at first person shooter games that I have never even played *snort*. Heck when it comes to paintball, I’m the reincarnation of Chuck Noris’ Delta Force. But for some reason I stink at laser tag, but hey its all about having fun right?
ummm…LOSER! *head down, cue soft Vince Guaraldi piano solo *

If you didn’t already think I was badass, this should officially seal the deal in your mind.
Considering I hadn’t played since I was like 10 years old, I was pretty excited (okay, excited beyond belief) when I got invited to a laser tag party. Yeah, I’m kinda a big deal. LOL.
The actual ‘course’ itself is awesome. I love that it’s all in black light and I love how many different twists and turns, levels, and hideouts there are.
The staff was super nice, and the cost for TWO mind-​blowing games was a mere $ 16! Cheapest Saturday night I’ve had in awhile!
The experience was great, but there is room for improvement, hence the loss of a star. A couple notes:
#1 — This place is insanely difficult to find. There is NO signage that you can see from Horton Road, so the only reason I found it is because I had to stop and ask. It’s located BEHIND the Auto Glass repair place on Horton Road. When you drive into the lot, it’s super creepy (I went at night) because there aren’t any lights and it makes the hair on the back of your neck stand upright. But once you get inside, it’s all good.
#2 — The laser tag vests that everyone uses REEKED. Like seriously. I had to take a shower the minute I came home and throw all my clothes in the washer because I had other people’s body fluids all over me. Gross.
Other than a couple of slight setbacks, this place is a GREAT way to get some activity! It’s cheap, it’s indoors, and you don’t wake up the next day hungover! Your ego may be a little bruised, but I promise you it wont take the entire day to recover ;)

It’s freakin’ laserquest! In grade 4 this was THE shit to do, all we would talk about was the next LQ visit and how cool our white sorel boots would look under the black lights. Then there were the Jr. High days where I would dork out with my peers on member night (yes, I was a member, for 2 years) where I happened to be MEMBER OF THE MONTH FOR THE MONTH OF FEBURARY, 1999. I didn’t get a plaque, although I got three (3) free games. Man, I was so proud of myself. I was like a non-​pixelated plumber getting the princess.
Then when I was old enough to drive my mom’s 1992 Plymouth Voyager L.E., I was able to take up to six (6) friends on Friday nights to dork out before getting high. Well, they’d get high first, which is probably why I destroyed them at laser tag while they were on the floor tripping out.
And now I take dates here. First dates. I still destroy them. We never seem to make it to a second or third date after I take them here. They’re probably just jealous. I destroy all of you. So come on down and if you get tagged by: ‘DR. DOOM’, you know you’re gonna be in deep (15 minute) shit.
