Looking for a change from escape games and other VR experiences? Head for Laser World, located in the Montparnasse district of Paris, where you can compete against each other or against other teams in a dedicated group arena. It's the perfect team-building opportunity for families, friends and colleagues. We've tried it, we'll tell you about it!

Who hasn't heard of a laser game? In immersive arenas and settings, but above all equipped with a vest and a laser weapon, you must eliminate as many opponents as possible on the battlefield... And if you're looking for a place to let off steam in Paris, whether with family, friends or colleagues, head for Laser World, located in the 14th arrondissement, a stone's throw from Montparnasse, where you can compete against other teams - or each other - in frenzied games!

A place that promises great fun, but above all, great memories to share. When it comes to laser games, you're in for a real treat! And with good reason: you're plunged into a post-apocalyptic Paris, with a cabaret, the corridors of the metro and the department stores, all on a 500m2 surface. It's up to you to make your way through the various alleys and hide in the nooks and crannies to surprise your opponents!

Numerous game modes are also available: team, solo, zombie mode, reappearance base, capture the flag, domination... So many ways to play, and modes that gamers accustomed to multiplayer FPS are familiar with, as they can be found in almost every game of the genre.

In addition to the laser game, there's a relaxation area where you can take a break between games. And for special events, there's a catering service and pizza available for team-building, stag or hen parties. For birthdays (between 7 and 13 years old), a cake is also offered, depending on the package chosen. But you're welcome to bring your own cake (if the package you've chosen includes a room).

Our review of Laser World Montparnasse:

An experience that the editors were able to try out... we let ourselves be tempted by two of the proposed game modes, namely the solo mode and the "Rabbit" mode. Two modes, each with its own specificities and rules, for the best possible variety of pleasures. The short (20-minute) games are ideal in their format, providing plenty of fun without tiring you out too much (and it's still relatively addictive and intense).

In terms of decor, Laser World offers a beautiful immersion in a post-apocalyptic Paris, in a fun, fluorescent universe, but also in the purest tradition of laser games, with low walls, spaces to hide and high suspension bridges to snipe at your enemies.

As far as the experience is concerned, everything fits together well, thanks to state-of-the-art, quality hardware, both on the laser rifle and on the vest, but also to the music playing in the arena, allowing for a more intense immersion in the game. After that, it's up to you to make the game unforgettable! Hiding, ambushes, flying girls... It's up to you to choose the best strategy and win the game! An ideal space, too, for birthday parties, children and teenagers, the structure being designed primarily for this type of group, without neglecting the others.

In short, it's a sure thing! All that's left is for you to try your hand at it.

Finally, we recommend that you come dressed in sportswear, preferably dark, to help you blend in with the scenery. You can also come and play without a reservation, subject to availability (although reservations are highly recommended).

So, shall we make a reservation at Laser World, folks?
