Take it anywhere

At a festival.
Even without internet.

beerbattls is not tied to a living room, TV, or console. A power bank and a local network are all you need.

On the go, simply open a smartphone hotspot, connect the device, and let your friends join. The game runs locally over Wi-Fi – ideal for festivals, birthdays, house parties, club nights, or your next trip.

Everyone plays on their own smartphone. That keeps the group together while every player is directly involved and the next round can start right away.

Why beerbattls?

A simple question became an all-in-one party machine.

Classic party games say: “Take a sip.” But how much is a sip, exactly?

beerbattls measures the amount automatically and links it directly to the game. No debates about quantities, less cheating – and every round gets a real, physical outcome.

The idea: smartphones stop being party killers and become shared controllers for an experience everyone enjoys together.

Already tested live

Tested spontaneously
Huge excitement.

beerbattls was not developed at a desk alone. The prototype has already been used in spontaneous outdoor sessions, private parties, while traveling, and on a startup stage.

At the Isar, beerbattls could be tested exactly where the product is meant to work: right in the middle of a real group, outdoors, and outside a staged event setting.

More live tests

Different places, different groups – the same question: does beerbattls work outside a demo setting too?

Set up, connect, play

Away from wall outlets and living rooms, we tested how quickly the setup is ready and how fast the group gets into the game.

Party, not a lab

At a private party, what matters most is that the hardware and controls work quietly in the background while the group has fun.
