Combat Ops Entertainment-Columbus

This wasn't just laser tag, this was laser war! What a great time! I came here with my fiance and two other friends for the first time and we had an absolute blast!There are three different "theaters" or "maps" you can play in, and they rotate. One is set up like an office, another like a house (complete with real parked cars), and another is a warehouse. The guns are modeled after the characteristics of real guns (shotgun has wider field of fire but shorter range, pistol is more accurate with shorter range, P90 has full automatic with a functional scope, etc). And the guns are heavy too; similar to real weapons.Next, you get assigned a "mission" each time. We played four rounds total: free for all, team deathmatch, split team deathmatch (half of your team starts on the far side of the map, half on the near side), and "traitor" where one person on each team is chosen as the traitor and it's your job to eliminate everyone on both the other team as well as your team. I was chosen as the traitor for my team, so I had to subtly try and pick off my own teammates. I should mention that friendly fire is active ALL THE TIME in every type of match. You get 10 lives per match, and a limited amount of ammo too (although the ammo limit was never a problem). Matches have a 16 minute time cap.After our first two rounds we were lucky enough that there was a kids' birthday party there, so we got to play some 10 vs 10 matches too. This made the matches pretty hectic but a lot of fun. I think ideally I would like to do these with 7 or 8 per side.Pricing is a little steep but not so bad that I won't be back. It's $5 or 6 for a membership, which is good for a year. Then you have to choose to buy either 4 or 8 matches in a package. It was $24 for 4 matches or $34 for 8 (if you buy the membership). And you can use those matches any time over the course of a year. There is also a basic drink/bar area where you can grab a beer or pop if you want. There might've been some standard bar foods (hot dogs/nachos) there as well, but we didn't check it out.If you choose not to buy a membership, you can buy either 3 or 6 matches, but you have to use them all up on that visit or they're lost. I forget the prices of these because we did the membership. They also have special "event" pricing for groups that you can do, but the downer here is that you have to pay as a single unit and then rely on everyone else to pay back the person paying. Membership fees are waved during that time for everyone, and they're unlimited play.Overall this was a real good time. One thing I would have liked to see was some sort of scoreboard/ranking outside of the arena that would show you how many kills/deaths/team kills each person had. I'll definitely be back, and next time I'll bring more friends along.

Came here for a work event as a team bonding exercise. We started off with the axe throwing and then did a round of laser tag. The place is bigger than it looks from the outside but it still feels pretty small since there isn't a ton of separate in the lobby portion. There is a full bar so that was definitely a plus. The pizza was lack luster but I really wasn't expected phenomenal pizza from the axe throwing event. Overall it was a lot of fun and a great time with coworkers!

I had my son's birthday party here, and they had a GREAT time! The laser tag groups were organized and they had 3 decent length rounds, plus $10 video game cards. There was even enough time for the adults to grab a drink at the bar and do a round of axe throwing. Staff were wonderful, Great value overall!

I went to this place expecting to only pay $20 per game (axe throwing) per hour and it was $20 per person! Way over priced in my opinion. My reason for the one star is the fact that the advertised price is misleading as well as I thought it was ironic that there was a sign that's said let's help beat COVID-19 but NO ONE was wearing a mask at all! And the hand sanitizer was gross and left stringy residue all over your hands. Also, be aware that if you want to go axe throwing, you have to have closed shoes or they can provide you with socks for $2.Also, we were not offered the free rental crocs.

Loved it great experience with the family it is very much unlike normal laser tag but I always love the change it was very modern, as if you are in a video game very friendly staff nice people but I would not recommend going when there is a birthday party because it can be a little loud altogether great experience loved going there keep up your amazing work

This was our 1st time axe throwing. The environment is incredible, and their staff are unbelievably helpful. Especially Spartan, who taught us how to improve our techniques and maximized our time with multiple games. We will definitely be back!

Love this place. I came here with one of my friends and it's not like the axe places I've been to where it's one at a time axe throwing, you can actually throw together at the same time. There's also food here that I'd actually give a 0/10 it's like they threw some Tyson chicken in the microwave. I had chicken wings, a pizza, mozzarella sticks and Mac n cheese bites which were all pretty gross. They also sell little airplane shots which I think is awesome that they at least have something for you to drink while throwing. Oh yeah, they gave us a free ticket to the indoor laser tag which I found really cool and was really fun. I would recommend this place for sure!!

Went here with some friends to laser tag and it was fun as hell. Never had so much fun before. Not only that we had a game warden Code Wolf, he was chill as hell and helped make the experience better for everyone and even modified some rules to keep the games fresh and help last longer.

I really wouldn't call 8 mid teir games an arcade. :(Get a pool table or something....

I was fun the food was great but I did meet this group of laser tag sweat's though. The pizza is great and I like the replica weapon's. But in all this place was great :).
