PALAMÓS ATTRACTION FIELD GUIDE
Into AREA 51: Laser‑tag in a Fluorescent Labyrinth on the Costa Brava
A 60‑minute, team‑based Laser Tag session at Game Factory’s intergalactic AREA 51 arena in Palamós — this guide explains what to expect, who it suits, and the logistics.
Into AREA 51: Laser‑tag in a Fluorescent Labyrinth on the Costa Brava.
At Game Factory in Palamós, Laser Tag is staged inside a purpose‑built AREA 51: a dark, themed maze of hidden bases, mock laboratories and sentinels, lit by fluorescent graffiti and augmented with smoke and theatrical effects. After a short briefing and the handout of sensor‑equipped vests and laser pistols, two teams move through the immersive scenarios, firing at targets and accumulating points; at the end of the session a results screen names the winning side and the top scorer.

Games cycle through many possible formats, and at the session’s close the system tallies scores and announces the winners and individual top performers.
