Beat The Bomb, the world’s first immersive social video game company, has officially opened its doors at 1483 Chattahoochee Avenue NW in the Upper Westside. In the popular 1-hour Mission Experience, teams suit up in hazmat gear before dodging lasers and cracking codes to disarm The World’s Largest Paint Bomb. Customers can choose from multiple experiences ending with either a paint bomb or foam bomb. Teams receive free photos & videos of the blast to share on social media. In the more casual Game Bays, groups can kick back and play on-demand mini games while enjoying drinks & shareable snacks from The Bomb Bar.
The company has developed a patented room-based gaming system using touch screens, motion sensors, RFID technology, projection-walls, and lasers with unique games that test communication, coordination and agility. “Atlantans have high standards for entertainment, and we are ready to deliver something that will truly blow them away,” said CEO & Founder Alex Patterson. “We have lasers. We have crazy special effects. We have colorful slushies at The Bomb Bar. What more could you ask for? While only 7% of teams Beat The Bomb on their first try, everyone is guaranteed to have a blast and come back for more. Start assembling your Bomb Squads, ATL!”
The 10,000 square-foot space owned by Jamestown, developer of Ponce City Market, features 10 immersive Mission game rooms (including 4 laser maze rooms and 2 glass-walled Bomb rooms), a beer garden with 4 interactive Game Bays, and The Bomb Bar offering a carefully curated menu of shareable snacks and signature drinks. The menu includes multiple varieties “Bomb Dogs” with a choice of beef franks, chicken tenders or Beyond Meat; “abuela-approved” chips & dips such as Mexican Street Corn and Buffalo Chicken; pizzas featuring house-made san marzano tomato sauce; and more. The Bomb Bar features colorful spiked slushies such as a classic Margarita with fresh squeezed lime, Blue Hawaii, and Laser Red Shirley plus Bomb Beater shots, high balls, signature cocktails and local Atlanta beers.
Beat The Bomb Atlanta aims to be the go-to spot for special events of all kinds including corporate team building events and off-sites, bachelorette parties, kids birthdays, school & camp field trips, and gender reveals. Groups looking to book a special event can curate a custom experience combining Mission play, Game Bays, food & drink packages and private rooms. The venue includes a [300] square foot small party space, perfect for kids birthdays and small company outings along with a [1,000] square-foot large event space, perfect for company retreats and school outings.
