Want a weekend that hits different? Rally your team and take on Charlotte’s most epic group adventure—where a high-stakes, real-life video game awaits.

You’ll suit up in gear and power through five cutting-edge rooms loaded with lasers, logic puzzles, and fast-paced missions. The clock is ticking, and the pressure is real. Can your team beat every challenge and disarm the giant paint bomb—or will you walk out colorfully defeated?

The VIP weekend package turns things up even more with private lounge access and extra post-game fun. After your mission, head to the Game Bays for immersive arcade action, sip on cocktails, and grab a bite at the Bomb Bar. It’s high energy, next-level bonding, and a weekend plan that no one will forget.

Unused Experience Vouchers can be returned within 15 days for a full refund to the original purchaser, no questions asked.

If you have any unused Experience Vouchers, you can exchange them for anything else in our marketplace, no matter when. If you choose an experience that's more expensive, you'll need to pay the difference, but if you choose one that costs less, you'll receive a credit towards your next booking.

No refunds are allowed once the experience is booked, but you can reschedule up to 24 hours before your experience, for a date within a year of the original booking. To reschedule, contact the experience provider directly. No-shows or rescheduling less than 24 hours in advance means losing the value of your experience.
