THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF GEL BLASTER FIELDS
The choice of playing field significantly impacts the Gel Blaster experience. Whether indoors or outdoors, each field offers unique challenges and tactical opportunities, depending on the game mode.
Before diving into specific battlefield types, let’s review the essential areas commonly found on most Gel Blaster fields.
Key Areas of a Gel Blaster Field

A secure resting area where players can store equipment, reload, and prepare for combat.
Safety Rules:
- No shooting allowed.
- Blasters must be pointed downward.
- Protective gear like goggles and masks must be worn beyond this zone.
- Some venues prohibit blasters in this area entirely to avoid accidents.
Respawn Zone
Inspired by FPS games, this area lets eliminated players re-enter the match after a waiting period.
Respawn Variants:
- Instant respawn on entry
- Delayed respawn (e.g. 30 seconds)
- Limited respawns per player or game
Test Zone
Found near the battlefield, this area allows you to:

This is the heart of the action — where all the gameplay happens.
Field variations include:
