FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about booking the Game Bus.

Booking

How do I reserve my date?

+

It only takes a few minutes online: choose your date and time, add any extra hours you'd like, and pay your deposit to lock it in. A valid credit or debit card is required, and you'll receive an instant confirmation by email.

How far in advance should I book?

+

We accept reservations up to 6 months ahead. Weekends in spring and summer book up fast, so the earlier you reserve, the better your chances of getting your first-choice date and time.

Is a deposit required to hold my date?

+

Yes. A $100 deposit secures your date and time for the standard 2-hour party. If you add extra hours, the deposit is 30% of your total. The remaining balance is charged automatically 24 hours before your event.

Packages & Pricing

How much does a party cost?

+

Our Game Truck Party is $499.99 for 2 hours and fits up to 25 players. Want more game time? Add as many extra hours as you like at $150 per hour. Texas sales tax (8.25%) applies.

Does the 2-hour rental include setup time?

+

No — your full rental time is all play. We arrive early to set everything up and we stay until the party ends, so the clock only starts when the gaming does.

Setup & Logistics

How big is the truck and where can it park?

+

Our gaming theater is about 32 ft long and needs roughly 3 parking spaces on a reasonably level surface. A driveway, a street spot, or a parking lot all work great.

Do you need power or anything from us?

+

Nothing at all. The truck is fully self-contained with its own onboard generator — we never connect to your home or venue's power. We bring everything; you just provide a level place to park.

Can you set up at parks?

+

Yes! We hold permits for most parks across the DFW area. Just tell us your park when you book and we'll confirm availability.

What games and consoles are available?

+

8 consoles on 8 TVs — PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, Nintendo Switch, a racing simulator, and VR — with 160+ games rated E to M. Most are multiplayer, so up to 25 players can game together at once. Inside: 2 PS5, 2 Xbox Series X, and 1 PS5 with a racing simulator and VR headset. Outside: 3 Nintendo Switch.

Safety & Rules

Is there a minimum age for players?

+

Kids can start young, but every player listens to a quick safety and instructions briefing from our staff first. For children 5 and under, a parent or guardian should be present to help supervise.

Do you supervise the players?

+

Yes — we bring game coaches to every event to run the games and keep things fun and under control. Any other entertainment provided by outside vendors should be supervised by the host.

Are food and drinks allowed inside the truck?

+

To protect the electronics inside, no food, drinks, or gum are allowed in the truck. Feel free to set up food and cake outside — players naturally rotate in and out throughout the party.

What is your policy on alcohol and drugs?

+

You're welcome to serve alcohol at your event, but we reserve the right to pause or end the party if alcohol is consumed inside the truck. Illegal drugs are never permitted in or around the truck and will end the event immediately.

Weather & Cancellation

How are parties handled in bad weather?

+

The truck is insulated and climate-controlled with both heat and A/C, so it's comfortable year-round. In unsafe conditions — lightning, high winds, flooding, heavy rain, snow, or ice — we may reschedule to keep everyone safe. If a major storm is forecast, contact us early and we'll arrange a new date together.

Other

What happens if the truck isn't available on my date?

+

In the rare event that an unforeseen circumstance makes the truck unavailable for your booking, we'll refund 100% of your prepaid cost.
