00:00 "It's a fun-fuelled environment, so we're nowhere seen anything like this before,
00:04 especially in the UK, so no one really knows what to expect."
00:09 The first Nerve Action Experience in Europe has launched in Manchester.
00:14 Nerve Action Experience, an action-packed entertainment attraction,
00:18 has officially opened with seven days a week access at Trafford Palazzo.
00:23 The indoor entertainment centre is the first ever in Europe and features four
00:27 action-packed Nerve Zones, including themed blaster battlegrounds,
00:31 training activities and a Nerve Sports Arena.
00:34 Following a soft opening period where trailblazing enthusiasts could try out the new venue,
00:40 the site is officially open to the public every day of the week.
00:43 "So in Nerve Action Experience, we have four zones. The first zone that you'll come into is
00:49 sports at NACS and there's seven different fun-fuelled sports games in there, from turbo
00:55 throw, velocity volley, there's basketball, there's all different types of games in there
00:59 for you to get involved in. We have two dedicated blaster zones where you go in and have blaster
01:04 battles. One of them is with our gel fires and it's the first Nerve Action Experience to deliver
01:12 on the gel fires, so that's a really big hit with our customers. And upstairs in Mission X,
01:17 we use a dedicated blaster which is not available in retail and you get to try that out in Mission
01:25 X. We also have our training zone and that's where you get to hone in on your skills,
01:30 trying to take your aim, take practice and again you have seven games up there, so a lot of variety.
01:36 Everyone naturally would think that a Nerve Experience would be aimed towards maybe the
01:41 five to twelve year olds, but we have found that everyone, families are coming down, young families,
01:47 five year olds, teenagers, adults, adults are having their hen and stag parties in the evening.
01:53 We are really big on children's birthdays as well, so we're getting a wide range and the demographic
01:58 is amazing for this experience. One of the centre's combat zones uses high performance
02:04 gel fire blasters, an exciting new product from Nerve not currently in play anywhere else.
02:09 The rounds burst on impact and eliminate the need to reload as often. The venue is also home to the
02:15 first dedicated Nerve store in the UK, which sells a range of products to take home and use anytime.
02:22 Nerve Action Experience has partnered with iconic restaurant Archie's next door,
02:26 providing delicious food and drink for parties and casual guests.
02:30 People have grown up with the product with Nerve and they've grown up right through their childhood.
02:35 In Chaos, you'll notice when you walk in, obviously again giving your gel, your gel fires,
02:41 your gel blasters and then when we start the game we hit the music, the intense kicks in,
02:46 the suspense kicks in, you're into two teams, it's capture the flag, everyone's excited,
02:51 it also goes quite dark in there, the music's going, everyone's smiling, everyone's laughing,
02:56 but you've also got that competitive side in there because you've got the two teams,
03:00 so it's a really great feeling inside there.
