INDOOR OR OUTDOORS! This crazy Chicagoland weather! Even though it’s summer, we still have to worry about rain, wind, and even chilly days! I love that NurfWars can be set up anywhere – indoors or outdoors. They will come to a location of your choice and bring all the equipment too, which includes *Blasters, Masks, Team Color Jerseys, and Bunkers. They can setup in a gym or in your yard– or wherever you want to play. So, for our Glancer Magazine readers in St. Charles, Geneva, Batavia, Sugar Grove, Downers Grove, Wheaton, Glen Ellyn, and Naperville – that means it’s as close to home as you want it to be! Even at your home.
We chose to play outside in my backyard. What started out as a cheerleaders bonding event turned into friends, co-workers, cheerleaders, and siblings all at war. We loaded our Blasters and hid behind our bunkers until the whistle sounded. The goal was simple – hit the opposing team and eliminate the competition. A lot like paint ball, but a lot less painful! The game of Capture the Flag required a bit more strategy – we needed to work together to protect our man so he/she could get the flag. We had people army crawling and hiding behind castle walls while attempting to take out the opponent to ensure our complete success to capture the flag. It was fun for everyone as we had kids as young as 12 and adults as old as 47!
You only have to be 6 years old and only need at least 6 participants to play the game; so, it perfect for just about anything from birthday parties to family reunions to corporate and PTA school events! Play style is totally up to you too! Multiple game types include: Team Deathmatch, Capture the Flag, Humans vs. Zombies, and Free for All.
Total fun all year round!
