Video game truck rental questions answered by DFW Rolling Video Games in DFW

Common video game truck rental questions

These are the video game truck rental questions DFW families ask most before they book a party. We keep every title age-appropriate for your group — you can look up any game by its ESRB rating — and a background-checked coach runs the whole event. Here are the straight answers.

The questions every parent asks — answered.

Our trailer is fully enclosed and climate-controlled, so we play rain or shine — no rain plan needed. Party day goes ahead in comfort whether it’s a downpour or 100°F outside. For how we handle genuine severe weather, see our Rain & Weather Policy.

To book your date, you pay a deposit of 50% of your package total. The deposit is non-refundable, but here’s exactly what happens if plans change:

If you reschedule

  • 7 or more days before your event: move to any available date within 12 months for a $50 fee. Your deposit and pricing move with you.
  • Less than 7 days before: you can reschedule once for a $100 fee, to a date within 60 days.

If you cancel

  • 7 or more days before your event: your deposit becomes a credit good for 12 months from your original event date ($50 fee to use it). Anything you’ve paid above the deposit is refunded.
  • Less than 7 days before, or no-show: your deposit is forfeited. Anything you’ve paid above it is refunded.

If we cancel (equipment problems, staffing, or unsafe roads), you choose: a full refund, including your deposit, or a new date at no charge.

Deadlines are measured from when we receive your call, text, or email, Central Time. Full details are in Section 4 of our Rental Agreement.

About 60 feet of clear, level street or parking-lot space (roughly 3 car lengths along a curb, or 7 side-by-side lot spaces) and 12 feet wide, clear both when we arrive and when we leave. We’re fully self-powered by our own quiet generator, so there’s no need to plug into your home.

Almost always, yes. We park on the street in front of your home, or in a nearby parking lot. We never park in driveways or on lawns, to protect your property and ours. We can’t hold events at apartment complexes. If you’re unsure about your street, send us a photo of the spot before booking and we’ll confirm.

Up to ~24 kids play at once across our indoor and outdoor screens, with the coach rotating everyone in so no one waits long. 

For bigger groups (30+), the 4-hour block maximizes rotation — just tell us your headcount and we’ll size it right.

We have games for kids as young as 4, all the way up through the teens. We tailor the lineup to your crowd — gentle, colorful titles for the littlest players and competitive or sports games for older kids. We host teens and adults too; just let us know who’s playing.

Weekends fill fast — we recommend booking 2–4 weeks out to get your first-choice date and time. Got a last-minute party? Reach out anyway; we’ll always check for openings.

Definitely — that’s exactly what your game coach is for. They set everything up, get every kid into a game, run the tournaments, and keep the energy high from the first minute to the last. Nobody stands around confused, and you don’t have to lift a finger.

Yes. Tell us your comfort level when you book and your coach will keep anything you’re not comfortable with off the screens. We default to family-friendly, age-appropriate titles, and any mature-rated game is only available with a parent’s on-site okay.

You can — there’s a spot to request titles when you book, and your coach takes requests at the party too. We bring our full game library to every event, so chances are your kid’s favorite is already on board. The lists on our site are just a sample.

It’s included — no upcharge, unlike some competitors. Every package comes with our outdoor gaming setup alongside the indoor screens (weather permitting), so kids can spread out and rotate through more stations.

If weather limits outdoor play, the party continues inside the trailer at the same price.

We arrive about 30 minutes early to set up and test everything, so the trailer is open and ready right at your start time. Handy tip: tell guests the party begins a little before we roll up — that way they’ve eaten first and everyone gets to see the trailer make its grand entrance.

Absolutely. Beyond birthdays we do school events, church functions, corporate parties, and neighborhood block parties. We’re also great for fundraisers — we can run tournament-style competition or open play to raise money for a large group. Tell us your date and group size and we’ll build a package that fits.

Everything in the matching standard party, plus a half-sheet birthday cake, 24 themed goodie bags, a backdrop, tableware and candles. The 3-hour package adds unlimited popcorn and sno-cones; the 4-hour package adds a GellyBall or Laser Tag arena.

After your deposit, we email a private link. It takes about two minutes: character, cake flavor, icing, message on the cake, and any allergies.

Yes — in packs of 12 for $60, from the same link or by calling us.

Online until 7 days before the party. After that, call us; changes must be made at least 72 hours before the event.

A commercial bakery. It may contain nuts, eggs, dairy, wheat and soy.
