Frequently Asked Questions
How does a Bring the Game Over Party work?
We aim to take away the stress and hassle of organising a party by bringing our Mobile Gaming Arcade van to your home or chosen venue. We arrive 15-30 minutes before your booking time to set up and allow time to discuss appropriate games your guests would like to play. We remain at your location whilst entertaining up to 12 players at any one time. We create an immersive, fun, competitive atmosphere all within our gaming van for your guests.
What games do you have?
We have an extensive games library to choose from with something for everyone.
The selection of games differs in age ratings and genre including football, basketball, racing, wrestling, building, fighting, shooters and everything in between. For those looking for a touch of nostalgia, we also hold popular retro games. The games library is continuously being updated; we have our fingers on the pulse and buy all the latest and greatest games and state of the art consoles as they come out.

Will the seating arrangement affect eyesight?
During the design of the gaming van, we measured the distances between eyes and screens. We follow guidelines set by manufacturers and have chosen a 49” TV as opposed to 55” and 27.5” monitors instead of 32” TVs.
Due to eye development and manufacture recommendation players must be age 12 and over to use the Virtual Reality headset.
