Pick up. Roll. Repeat.

Easy to pick up.
Hard to call it a night.

A smaller ball without finger holes. Shorter pins. A compact lane. Duckpin keeps the satisfying, physical heart of bowling in a format that invites everyone to have a go.

The return rail brings the ball back to you. The system resets the pins. All that’s left is deciding who goes next.

One complete system

Built around the next turn.

Mechanical systems and connected electronics, designed to work together. Less interruption between the roll, the result and the rematch.

01

Automatic pin reset

The pinsetter prepares the lane for the next turn, so the game keeps its rhythm.

02

Connected scoring

50-inch displays keep the result in view, with RGB backlighting behind each screen. Players stay with the action.

03

Central ball return

A shared return rail brings the balls back to the approach, ready to be picked up again.

Space, considered

A proper game.

A few useful answers

Before you play.

What is duckpin bowling?

Duckpin is bowling with shorter pins and a small ball without finger holes. Playarka combines the physical game with electronic scoring, an automatic pinsetter and ball return in a compact two-lane system.

How big is the two-lane module?

The supplied engineering drawing shows a module 7.58 m long and 3.829 m wide, with a rear housing height of 1.55 m. That is approximately 29 m² of equipment footprint. This is not the total room requirement: allow additional circulation, spectator space and service access, confirmed in your site layout.

Can it fit into an existing venue?

The modular layout is suitable for planning into clubhouses, resorts, hospitality spaces and leisure venues. Access, floor condition, electrical provision and service clearances must be checked before a layout is confirmed.

Does it score games and return the ball automatically?

Yes. Electronic scoring, automatic pin resetting and a central ball return are part of the Playarka duckpin system, keeping players in the game between turns.

How do we get a price and installation plan?

Send your floor plan, city and intended number of lanes. We will confirm the configuration, site preparation, installation scope and quote. The technical drawing on this page is a reference module, not a site-specific construction plan.
