take on family & friends over
2 action-packed games
game 1
team combat
The classic laser skirmish shoot-em-up.
Form a dream team among family and friends and take out the enemy one at a time.
When the countdown finishes, the team with the most shots landed wins.
Will you be the combat champion?
game 2
domination
Work together with your team mates to fight your way to the centre of the battle field – where a beacon sits as a target. Shoot the beacon to earn possession, and fight off the enemy to maintain control.
Watch out – if you get hit by an opponents shot, you’ll have to head back to home base (losing your chance to protect the beacon).
When time’s up, the team that has had control of the beacon for the longest amount of time lays claim as the domination champions!
no bruises or tears
harmless light shooters
Glenworth Valley laser guns use harmless infra-red light that is picked up with headband receptors – meaning no pain when being shot and no big nasty bruises over the coming days either.
Laser Skirmish is all the fun and group excitement of paintball, just without the tears.

When playing laser skirmish, wearing dark clothes that suit your environment help you blend in and make stealthy attacks on your opponents. In bush settings like Glenworth Valley, green or brown are perfect – or a camouflage suit is even better.

how to win at laser skirmish
Looking for that competitive edge over your friends while playing laser skirmishing? Here’s 5 tested tips to make you the hero of your team:
1. Learn the area. Find and remember vantage points or hidden zones that you can use to stealthily attack or hide.
2. Blend in. Use camouflaged clothes and hide in bush areas. The enemy won’t see you coming.
3. Work together with your team mates. A team that works together with a game plan always comes out on top.
