Leave a Review Recoil Game
Halo in real life
I never leave reviews, but this game was just too much fun not to. We got a 4 on 4 game going over Thanksgiving and had a total blast (literally played until 2am). Would give it 5 stars, but there were a few technical hurdles that caused us to stop and reset the router and our radios never worked.
We’d love to see stats that accumulate over multiple games. Also, it’d be great to have a “rematch” option at the end of each round.
Super pumped for the future potential!Show lessPuzzlegeeeek
Best laser tag ever!
I would review this game a five out five stars if I were rating it from my own experience, but sadly I have experienced some bugs. The game works great on my iPhone, there's of course the occasional glitch but it works great on my iPhone! However, I was playing a game with a friend who was using an iPod and whenever she was shot it wouldn't let her respawn. It kept saying that she was getting farther away from her respawn point no matter which direction she went. This of course could have been a personal glitch but I'm not sure. But it is still a really great game and I would suggest it for anyone who is into laser tag.Show lessYa_boi_zimm
No accessibility at all for voiceover users
I like the idea of hearing where your enemies are, using 3-D audio, because this would actually make it finally possible for visually impaired individuals to be able to play laser tag at last. The problem is, however, to make this a reality, there needs to be properly labeled buttons for the iPhones screen reader to work in conjunction with this application. Another alternative, if the screen reader aspect does not work, is to make audible menus, so that visually impaired individuals are able to navigate the menus. It really isn't that hard to do. There is no accessibility whatsoever. Please fix this.
Update:
Since reading this review, the app has been updated. Now, some of you may call this whining, and that’s fine. We all have opinions. The app is still not accessible to blind and visually impaired users. I just wonder, does the company even care about all the issues were going through?Show lessShaunteckno
Good start but....
My boys were excited about getting this. However We've had several issues with both the App and Hardware.
1) The App lacks several basic condition checks. It doesn't know if your Bluetooth is turned on and will spin forever trying to pair.
2) once you turn on your Bluetooth if you had previously tried to pair. You have to shut down and restart the app in order for the pair to work. This is very cumbersome and should be an easy fix.
3) needs a better detection algorithm for the shot detection. While playing indoor skirmish I could shoot at a white wall and ricochet a shot around a corner(s).
4) GPS location is very buggy. It says you can play on your street. They should combine with google maps for buildings to prevent airdrops and other random areas from going into people's homes. Makes completing a game very difficult.
5) the pairing of the guns should know which gun you really have. Allowing someone to say they have the larger gun and still pair it for the game should be a simple and easy fix.
This is what we've gathered on our first day of playing.Show lessBeyondS
Does not currently work with updated Apple Iphones
I just purchased 4 systems for a group of kids to play with. Very excited until they all lose connectivity with hub and or guns most of the time when i tried clicking on battle -instructions come up and will not even let a battle happen. Lots of stuff not working consistently after a few seconds if your lucky enough to set up a battle. The company knows about these problems but could not tell me when or if they would be corrected.Show lessdr_kidwell
Great game
This is a great game and I have not had any issues with the app. It takes a few minutes to get all the equipment connected but there are in game instructions that take you through it all.
Playing the game is fantastic, I have tried both indoor and outdoor and they both worked fine. The experience with the headphones is great, very immersive and it tells you if you are shooting at an already dead target. I have not tried the voice chat feature yet but if that works it will just be icing on the cake.Show lessStevexyz
New Update needs fixed
Newest update has left our game unplayable. Indoor and outdoor use tells us we are not within range of the game hub, even when standing within inches of it.
Update: September 28th update: game is still unplayable. Still receive message that we are out of range of the game hub. On the bright side, the microphones now work for the brief second we are in the game before it disconnects.Show lessAirmailbeast
Newest update
Absolutely terrible. The original games was great. No issues at all. Game started right away and everything connected perfectly. Newest update with indoor skirmish is RUBBISH!!! We can't even start a game because it tells both players we're out of range when we're 10 feet away from it and it doesn't matter what we do we can't even back out of the game. We have to hard close everything and restart EVERYTHING!!! Hub wifi. Gun Bluetooth all of it has to be restarted and if you're lucky you get to actually play it after that. When we did get 3 mins of playing they changed the reload time to a timed reload instead of instant. Yeah good luck with that when you're playing with kids. it's aggravating and a waste of time watching a progress bar running across the screen to reload your bullets when it used to be instant. Oh and the mic chat used to work (kinda) and now it DOESN'T work AT ALL. i NEVER review anything, but I dropped 150$ on the kit and some accessories and we end up with a trash toy that I wouldn't even sell at my spring yard sale. This was supposed to be a show stopper for 2017, not so much anymore after the last update. I seriously and sincerely hope you guys fix these issues. It was so fun before. If not, Its just another pointless, gimmicky crap game that goes in the junk drawerShow lessJimmy_C_Hair
I had a connection bug
Hi! My name is TanMan321Go on YT, I did experience bug with being out of range of the hub when I was not...I found a work around. When you start up indoor mode, stand right next to the hub for a few seconds after it starts and then you should be able to play. Don't worry people. These bugs will get fixed :)Show less7WM
