Supervision
JOYSTICKS does require a parent to be present at the event. Children 4 and under must be accompanied by an adult inside the trailer at all times. Toddlers and babies must be carried and held at all times and are not allowed to play with the controllers or other items in the game trailer. THERE ARE NO EXCEPTIONS!
We will provide a knowledgeable Game Coach who will assist your child/children in making sure that their party is the party of the year.
Party site
The Game Coach is there to make sure that your group is making the most of our high-tech fun. He or she tutors, inspires and entertains. Tipping for good service is a great idea, but not required.
The customer is required to provide a relatively flat, safe area for the Mobile Theater to park. Street fronts are preferable. Our truck and trailer combination is very long and we will need a minimum of 50 feet of space to park.
If you do not have enough space, we recommend that you contact your local church or recreation center. If the location is deemed unsafe for the customers, players or other guests at time of arrival, JOYSTICKS MVGT will request an alternative location be provided.
If an alternative location cannot be found, we will allow the event to be rescheduled, but a $50 fee will be assessed in this event. We will park on driveways only if we can do so safely and there is enough room for the truck and trailer to maneuver into the driveway.
Video game ratings
JOYSTICKS will not play any “M” rated or higher games in the video game theater without a request from the client prior to the party/event or adult approval at the time of the event.
If you wish to have an “M” rated game or higher at your party/event there will be an area on your booking page to notify us of that fact.
