Things To Do For An Urban Escape

Test your shooting skills

Enjoy paintball or laser tag? Then you're sure to like TactSim’s airsoft games! If you've never played before, airsoft is a competitive shooting sport where teams engage in skirmishes or scenario games against each other. Airsoft is currently only available at TactSim and is also the first player versus player PVP) airsoft arena in Singapore.

Players use airsoft replicas launching 6mm plastic pellets at safe velocities and declare when they have been hit. The airsoft projectiles will only leave a mark like a tiny mosquito bite if you're hit from a close proximity. So the real test is about teamwork, communication and honesty.

Unlike other shooting game centres, the airsoft arena at TactSim features advanced moving wall panels to add plenty of variety to each season. The area is also designed to maximise the gameplay experience for all levels of enthusiasts. From competitive shooting and scenario games to casual challenges, there’s a place and style for every class of airsoft player at the centre.

Enjoy a virtual reality escape room adventure
