Historical Synopsis: Reflex Laser Tag began in Belgium, but had sites using their equipment all throughout the European market. There were locations using Reflex in Belgium, The Netherlands, France, Estonia, Denmark, Bulgaria and the Czech Republic.
Reflex was designed and manufactured by Leisure International NV in Belgium. It is believed that Leisure International may have had Intersphere equipment at their original location, which may have inspired the development of Reflex. In turn, Reflex may have in turn inspired LaserMaxx.
