Battlefield Houston

Battlefield Houston is the largest indoor tactical battlefield in the United States. We take laser tag to a whole new level. Forget what you know about traditional laser tag and come try out tactical laser tag. Games like Search and Destroy, Domination, Deathmatch, Sniper and so much more. Don't just play the game, LIVE the game!

We took a church youth group for an activity, and everyone absolutely had a blast. The setup is very well done. The laser guns that they give you have adjustable stocks, as well as red dot type scopes. They have a very nice feel to them-especially compared to most places. The room itself is huge and has two stories. It is well-lit enough to see, but has a dark feel to it in many places. The barriers and such are well-planned allowing you to take cover and ambush people in many places. The staff was extremely friendly and efficient in every aspect. The variety of game types played are a neat addition as well. We played team deathmatch, a hard point style game (where you have to capture a box, and accumulate points while holding it), and a hostage escort mission. Overall, we had a great experience, and we look forward to going back.

Escape Hunt

The Escape Hunt Experience is Houston's Premier Escape Room. We offer an exceptional escape room experience from the moment you walk into our Victorian furnished reception room, reminiscent of Sherlock Holmes' famous 221B Baker Street study. Conveniently located near many food and drink options in Midtown. We provide free complimentary parking. Our escape rooms transport you to another time and place where you work together as a team to escape the room in less than 60 minutes. Our new Apollo 13 Escape Room is receiving excellent guest reviews and media coverage. It is being described as the most realistic escape room in the United States. For those not yet familiar with the concept, an escape room is a physical adventure game in which players are locked in a room and have to use elements of the room to discover clues and solve codes and puzzles in order to escape the room within 60 minutes. Complimentary free parking in our covered facility.

To be honest, I didn't know how this was going to turn out and I was a little concerned because I can be claustrophobic (I kept that to myself), but this was far more challenging than I expected and great fun at the same time! We booked this for a birthday celebration for a couple of our adult sons, so this was a family adventure (6 adults). The best part was that each of us found key clues that contributed to the success of the game. This is perfect for people who love mysteries and problem solving!I'd also like to say that Jim and Jan were excellent hosts! We were running just a little behind, but they handled everything smoothly and graciously and made us feel perfectly at ease. Could not have been better!

My kids and I (ages 16-25) had the BEST time! This is definitely on our list to do again! It's a really cool twist on your normal every day escape room experience. I almost wish it lasted longer... time went really quickly! I'm excited to go back and try one of the other games.

Houston Axe Throwing - Bellaire Location

You and your best mates will spend 1.5-2.5 hours becoming intimate with a 1.5lb piece of whirling wood and metal as you learn, practice and then finally square off toe to toe in a group tournament that will result in the crowning of an Axe Throwing Champion. Our Axe Throwing sessions are run by trained Axeperts who will show you how to safely handle an axe and chuck it with accuracy!
