GellyBall FAQs
What is GellyBall
GellyBall is an ultra low-impact shooting sport suitable for kids as young as four. It uses GellyBall Blasters, which are easy-to-use guns that require minimal pressure to shoot soft GellyBalls. Unlike Nerf, where players constantly pick up ammo from the floor, a GellyBall Blaster holds 750 shots without reloading, keeping the action going non-stop!
What is a GellyBall Blaster
GellyBall Blasters are electronic guns that shoot tiny absorbent polymer beads, which expand into soft gel balls when soaked in water. These blasters can shoot accurately up to 100 feet, making them great for fast-paced, exciting gameplay.
What ammo does a GellyBall Blaster use?
GellyBall Blasters use GellyBalls, which are similar to Orbeez. These tiny, water-absorbent polymer beads expand when soaked and are biodegradable and non-toxic, making them safe for the environment. Unlike paintballs, which explode on impact, GellyBalls either bounce off or disintegrate and then dehydrate—leaving no stains and no mess!
How long does our ammo last?
You get unlimited GellyBall ammo throughout your entire party!
What items should I bring?
Summer: Bug spray and sunscreen are essential. Apply bug spray before playing, but avoid spraying near goggles as it can damage lenses and plastic equipment.
Winter: Lip balm and warm gloves are a must.
Since this is an outdoor activity, dress accordingly for the weather.
Does it hurt?
No! GellyBall Blasters use very low pressure, so getting hit feels like a light snap of a rubber band. But once you’re in the game, you’ll be having so much fun, you won’t even notice!
Is GellyBall like paintball?
GellyBall delivers all the fun and excitement of paintball, but without the sting or the mess. Just like paintball, you can play a variety of different game modes to keep things exciting.
Is GellyBall like nerf?
GellyBall is way more fun than Nerf! The only similarity is that both involve shooting ammo, but with GellyBall, you never have to stop and pick up rounds off the ground. The GellyBall Blaster holds 750 rounds and shoots accurately up to 100 feet for an intense, fast-paced experience.
Will the GellyBalls stain clothes?
No! GellyBall beads are non-toxic, non-staining, and biodegradable. They are water-based, meaning they shrink down before disintegrating completely—no mess, no clean-up, and no hassle.
