Do I have to sign a waiver?

ALL guests must sign a waiver. EVERYONE. We know; we know. You aren't going to play, you aren't going to shoot a blaster. Odds are, you're going to get caught up in the excitement. Yes, Grandma, even you. Even if you don't participate, you're probably going to get hit during training practice. Everyone must sign a waiver.


Can Adults play?

Of course, It's super fun, especially when you play with only other adults.

I have 4 people who want to play? Do we need a reservation?

Yes, at this time everyone needs a reservation. When the restaurant/brewery opens we will begin taking walk-ins, however, reservations are always recommended. Check Facebook for upcoming OPEN PLAY HOURS during which the rate is $15/16.50 or book a 30 minute time slot for $75. It costs a little more this way. We encourage you to find some friends and make an hourly PRIVATE PLAY reservation.


But, I don't know that many people.

That's okay, you'll make new friends during the OPEN PLAY. You're welcome.


What's the difference between open play and private play?

Private play takes place when a group of people make a reservation at the hourly group rate. Open play means that people you may not know may be playing in the room with you. You have not reserved at the private play rate. We allow up to 14 people in the room during open play. All players are required to use blasters that are age appropriate for the youngest player in the room.


Hmm... What if I have 12 people and split them into two groups of 6?

You can do that if you reserve an hour or hour and a half slot. Good luck getting the first group to leave after 30 minutes. We recommend bribing them with a treat from the coffee shop.


We're having a birthday party. How many people can we bring?

14 players max and up to 6 non-playing chaperones or younger siblings when you book with the 1 1/2 or 2 hour party reservation that includes the party room. With all other reservation types you may bring 2 non-playing chaperones. They may stand and watch the action or sit in the seats outside the battle room.


Can we bring cake and ice cream?

Yes; if you've booked a party in the training room. We have a refrigerator/freezer.


Can we bring presents?

Yes; if you've booked a party in the training room. We have an area for presents.


What do you provide?

When you book a party in the training room, we'll provide everything mentioned above and party cups, napkins, plates, and flatware. If you'd like goody bags be sure to add them to your order when checking out.


How much do goody bags cost?

Goody bags are $6.00 each and come with silly straws, stickers, lollipops, and a coupon for the PANDA TREASURE BOX. Please let us know if you'd like to add some to your order.


We want to play longer. Can we do that?

Sure, if you decide you want to keep playing and no one has booked the slot after you, you can stay an additional 30 minutes for $50. When the staff blows the time whistle, let them know you need more time.


Can we stay another hour? (two hours) How much does that cost?

Sure, but you probably won't want to. People get worn out from all the pandemonium! Check with a Blaster Master to add another hour to your reservation.
