Each year during early spring, the frost clinging to Northwest Indiana thaws, clearing the way for drivers to careen over the gently banked turns of the go-kart track at Zig-E's Funland. Its friendly staff is on hand to point visitors in the direction of other attractions as well, including a bungee trampoline and the waterfall-flanked greens of the 18-hole mini-golf course that blankets the 3.4-acre property. Inside, a year-round arcade is packed with more than 50 video and redemption games that buzz and blip as players pass virtual levels and amass redemption tickets. Throughout their visit, these fun seekers can stop at the snack shop to reenergize while reveling in the staff's tales of the heroes and heroines of tactical laser tag.
