Variety... that's what
keeps games interesting.
DarkLight laser game facilities have a huge variety of
games available. The DarkLight game software has games suitable for novices
and veterans, kids, families, corporate events - you name it.
Games can feature special themes, tasks, powers, characters
etc. You can even suggest game ideas, which can be implemented quickly
and easily.
To start with, simple games are played, incorporating
only special features directed at the novice player, but the huge range
of special game options get introduced as players get more experienced.
I f you want to play the ultmately challenging, high skill and strategy
variations - played on theme nights, invitation-only events and Lock-ins,
ask your local DarkLight about them.
Below are JUST A FEW of the games that
can be played using DarkLight LaserTag eqipment:
Basic Games
In basic games players cannot shoot their own team-mates
but this like any other element, can be changed to make a more challenging
game.
These games are ideal for the younger player, particularly
birthday parties, as special powers can be given to the Birthday boy or
girl. Score sheets can also be personalised for special occasions.
|
Players Gain 10 points for tagging
an opponent, but do not lose any points for being
tagged, deactivated or hit by special weapons.
Powers include Invisibility,
Megapower and Rapid-fire, with
Ammo and Energy also available.
Recommended for Parties and
Beginners ONLY!
|
|
Based on the basic team game, but with
team bases. Bases will not tag their own colour. Tagging an enemy
base will award the player with a points bonus.
|
|
Similar to Basic games, players still
gain 10 points for a teg, BUT players lose 5 points for being tagged!
Points are also lost when tagged by GEMs, hit by special powers,
or when deactivated.
Introduces the Dark Thief
power allowing players to steal 10% Ammo and 10% Credits off players
tagged.
Recommended for most players.
|
Intermediate Games
Intermediate games are aimed at more experienced players, who have played
several games. Again, here are just a few of the kinds of games they can
play:
There is no energy available in the arena. If a
player buys Megapower any player tagged will Gain 1 energy.
Note: this will happen to the opposition as well as your oen team)
|
|
Based on the Basic games, but with a GEM set to
tag players with the snake bite. When bitten, a
player buy the Serum from another GEM before the
poison kills them (losing a life)
|
|
Based on a Basic game, but with a GEM set to mark
players by the Vampire. Marked players will be
attacked by bats at regular intervals (losing energy) until they
lose a life or buy Garlic from another GEM.
|
|
A game with limited Ammo and Energy.
Players must use stealth and cunning to stay alive. Extra Energy
and Ammo is available but at a high cost.
|
|
Fed up with your existing team? tag the coloured
GEM to change to that team colour (If you have enough credits) and
tag them instead. Guaranteed not to win you any friends.
Be the first to change to Blue or Yellow and you'll
be able to tag everyone!
|
Steal your opponents Credits and crack open the
'Safe GEM' to gain the loot of 1000 points.
In this game, everyone can gain Dark Thief
very easily - it only costs 1 credit and lasts for the whole of
a life. Dark Thief is set to steal All of the credits
from the victim. The objective is to collect 80 creditsand
shoot the 'safe' GEM to gain the loot. This will give the player
1000 points BUT will remove Dark Thief.
This is a very fast paced game with players trying
to work out who stole their credits, so they can get them back,
and the odd sly player who stakes out the 'safe' GEM hoping to get
1 lucky shot at someone with over 80 credits.
Note: The Phaser cannot display more than 160 credits
but the Game PC knows when you have more.
|
|
Identical to Guild of Thieves / Pink panther, except
that players can steal credits from their team-mates
as well!
|
Advanced Games
These are games aimed at tournaments and special events, such as lock-ins
and invitation-only competitions - for the hardcore player!
|
Players are grouped with other players and share
powers, ammo, energy etc. If 1 player gains a power, the group will.
If 1 player is deactivated the other player in the group will be
as well.
|
|
Players are split into teams (2, 3 or 4). Each team
must select a 'Queen Bee' - credit holder before hte game begins,
and this must be kept secret from the other teams.
Players start with 2 lives and 10 energy per life.
Players must shoot the opposition to gain credits
(as normal), then shoot the GEMs to gain energy.
Any player shooting a team-mate will lose 2 energy,
but pass on 1 credit.
The objective is to pass 80 credits to the 'Queen',
allowing them tag the GEM to gain rubbershoes / electroblaster to
take out the opposition!
1 hit from electroblaster will game over most players
(unless they have bought loads of energy). Lightning will remove
a life so be carefull.
|
|
All players start green, except for 1 Red player.
When a Red player tags a Green they will turn Red. When a Green
player tags a Red they will just be disabled. The object of the
game is to be the last Green player tagged - you gain a big points
bonus before turning Red - everyone else turns Green and it all
starts over again.
|
|
GEMs must be tagged in the correct order to progress
through the levels. Get to the last level and become 'King
Adventurer' for a points or power reward. If you get deactivated
you must start again from the lowest level.
|
|
All GEMs start off neutral (White).
When won by a team they change to that colour and will no-longer
give powers etc to the other teams.
A team stratergy is essential - will you capture
the low cost GEMs, such as Ammo and Energy, or will you go for the
high cost Dark Thief and Invisibility?
|
|
Tag the Detonator GEM (80 Credits) to start the
countdown that will deactivate the opposite Team(s). Stop the countdown
by tagging the same GEM with the required points.
|
|
These games are based on their basic and intermediate
versions, BUT a player tagging their own team will
lose points and so will the player tagged!
|
|
Solo eliminator game - for experienced players only!!!
Probably the most complex game ever!
This game is played as a Solo game, with players
stealing credits, moving through levels, gaining powers, changing
colours and eventually killing off the other players. The last player
alive wins (Decappitation not necessary!)
All players start off Green,
as they become more powerful, they change from green through Yellow
, Red to Blue
- at which point they should be avoided at all costs.!
Starting with 1 life and 99 Energy. One of the GEMs
is set to lightning - so watch out as it will take you out of the
game!
Level 1 - 5 Credits, Changes the player to Yellow
& gives Invisibility
Level 2 - 10 Credits, Changes the player to Red
& gives Nebuliser (Firing from the phaser blob only)
Level 3 - 15 Credits, Changes the player to Blue
& gives Rubber Shoes.
Other GEMs sell Dark Thief, Megapower etc/
After gaining Rubber Shoes, get tagged by the lightning
GEM to gain Electroblaster. This is set to do 200 damage, taking
out another player with 1 shot - but it has a slow fire rate.
"There can be only One!"
