Missouri’s First Indoor Nerf Gun Arena Is Just As Much Fun As It Sounds

Slip-on your safety glasses. Put your finger on the trigger, and start preparing for battle - and a day of fast-paced excitement. The War Zone in Missouri is the perfect way to spend an hour or two, blowing off steam and having an old-fashioned good time. If you've not engaged in a Nerf battle yet, you might want to add it to your to-do list.

Get ready to dodge Nerf bullets, as you shoot at your opponents, at The War Zone in Springfield, the first indoor Nerf gun arena in Missouri.

The action-packed fun is perfect for kiddos and adults of all ages, although little ones must be at least five years old to join in on open play. Kiddos seven and older can join planned games.

Your adventure begins with choosing your blaster, unless you've brought your own blaster from home. Both ammo and safety glasses are provided to all players.

If you want to play, you must wear the safety glasses at all times when you're in the arena. You'll also have to follow a few rules to ensure everyone has fun and remains safe.

Never shoot at another player's head, and always listen to the arena's referee. Because sufficient space is required between players to avoid hitting each other, nerf gun battles are the...

Perfect social distancing activity. If you prefer to just run around and shoot with your friends, opt for the open play option.

You can also join in on organized battles. Speaking of battles, each one lasts around five minutes. If you're hit, though, you're out until the next battle.
