Close for the lane machines' service day, and give festival nights later hours as special hours for that date.

QR poster

At the mall entrance to the alley and on the shoe counter, so a group takes a place and goes for a snack instead of standing at the counter.

Each lane is a desk.

Six lanes are six desks with nobody attached, so the line takes six bookings for the same time and calls a walk-in group to whichever lane comes free.
How it works →
A group takes one place, in one person's name.

One person scans or books for the whole group and picks how long they want the lane. A birthday group books the party lane for today or the next six days, in the organiser's name.
How it works →
Shoes are not a step here.

A step before the game never runs when a group joins from a phone, so the shoe counter is not built in as one. Groups collect shoes while they wait, and their page tells them when their lane is ready.
How it works →
Call the next group from the counter.

The lane counter, with the Run desks ability, runs every lane from Desks you run on the Waitlist, presses Complete when a group's time is up and Call next for the lane. A booked group that has checked in goes where its time places it.
How it works →
Check in the group bookings at the counter.

The organiser presses I am here when they arrive, or the counter checks them in on the Waitlist. Everyone at the counter has the Front desk ability, so the shoe counter staff can check a group in too, as well as add a walk-in group.
