Boller Battle

Boller Battle: Handcart Gameshow for Bachelor Parties in Berlin-Mitte

The Boller Battle is a portable gameshow. The group pulls a fully loaded handcart through Berlin and plays nine mini-games from the four categories Quiz, Action, Tactics, and Skill against each other along the way. The cart itself is the playing field: It has a quiz station with four buzzers, a pull-out counter, a large beverage compartment for two to three crates, and a Bluetooth speaker. Participants are allowed to bring their own drinks and snacks; in case of heavy rain, the provider offers a free three by four meter tarp system. The format became known through an appearance on the startup show “Die Höhle der Löwen” (Germany’s “Shark Tank”).

The starting point is in front of EXIT Escape Room Games at Friedrichstraße 101, directly at Friedrichstraße station. From there, two fixed routes lead through the city center, one through Monbijoupark and one through Tiergarten. The group receives the map on site, and the game can be played in either German or English.

Prices, Group Sizes, and Process for the Boller Battle

A handcart in Berlin costs 279 Euros for three hours. With twelve people per cart, this is around 23 Euros per person, making the format affordable even for larger groups. Those who wish can also book an additional 24-pack crate and fill it to their liking. Bookings are made online, even if the final number of participants is not yet determined.

Participants of one cart are divided into four teams that compete against each other all afternoon. A maximum of twelve players are planned per cart, and since up to three carts can be booked simultaneously, the Boller Battle works for groups of three to 36 people. An adult rents the cart upon presentation of a photo ID and needs a smartphone with an internet connection because the games run on it. Check-in begins fifteen minutes before the appointment.
