Welcome to Black Hawk Laser

 

Black Hawk offers Laser Tag, Virtual Reality Games and Escape Rooms.  We are based at Unit 4 Mile Oak Industrial Estate, Oswestry, Shropshire SY10 8GA.

 

Laser tag gaming is perfect for childrens parties, groups and individuals.  It can be used for adults team building and corporate events as well as individuals and families playing to improve confidence, self esteem and having fun.

 

Our escape rooms are designed to give your brain a workout, solve the clues and escape the room with the help of your friends or family.

 

Our latest addition is the state of the art Virtual Reality Games equipment.  Choose from the 3 different machines and enjoy driving race cars, spinning upside down on rollercoasters or swimming under the sea.  A member of staff will stay with you and help you use the equipment and choose the best experiences for you and your group.

 

We also have a cafe area where you can enjoy fresh barrisita coffees, milkshakes and smoothies.  Hot food is also available to order.

Black Hawk Laser is based at Unit 4, Mile Oak Industrial Estate, Oswestry, Shropshire SY10 8GA.  Find us opposite the Oswestry Royal Mail Sorting Office

 

We have ample free onsite parking and toilets.

 

Open 7 days a week - 10am to 10pm - Booking is essential!

 

The indoor arena is designed to be a stimulating and exciting environment.  We redesign the interior on a regular basis so that return visitors will find a fresh layout to enjoy. We use sound, lighting and decoration to bring the whole experience to life.  So if you are a video gamer this is where you get to play those games for real.

 

We are fully insured and first aid qualified.  There is disabled access to the indoor arena but movement around the arena may be limited in places - please contact us for further information.

Games are varied over the session and different skills developed.  Missions include 'Annihilation', 'Domination', 'VIP Protection', 'Capture the Flag' and 'Black Hawk Down' where you take the role of a helicopter pilot, downed and fighting to survive against the enemy.

 

Laser tag game sessions start with a briefing during which health and safety instructions are given, taggers are issued and demonstrated.

 

Once everyone is kitted up and happy we proceed with the first game. There is no limit to the number of games per session and because you cannot be knocked out by 1 shot you will get plenty of time to play the tagging games.  Ammunition is unlimited at no extra charge.

 

Games are disabled friendly, if you have a disability please get in touch with us so we can discuss how best to meet your needs.

 

When the games end we allow enough time to debrief, return kit and discuss results with the participants.
