Indoor Team Building Games
Clued In
Step into the role of a detective in this thrilling, scavenger hunt-style mystery team building activity! Teams work together to solve a crime using clues, challenges, and hilarious tasks like re-creating crime scenes, filming dramatic interrogations, and cracking coded messages. As teams complete missions, they eliminate suspects, locations, and crimes until only the guilty party remains. The team that solves the case and scores the most points wins—while everyone else dies of laughter during the hilarious video and photo recap!
Level Up – How High Can You Go?
The aim of this game is simple … score as many points as possible before you run out of time. There’s something for everyone in this fun, frenetic activity with teams solving puzzles, cracking codes and completing photo and video challenges. Teams work through five levels, with each passing level becoming more and more complex. They can choose whether to pick easy, medium or hard challenges. The harder the challenge, the higher the points!
Note: You will need to gather a few everyday supplies for this game (approximately $10 in supplies per team) – a supply list is provided.
Team Dynamics Dash
Team Dynamics Dash is a fast-paced, interactive adventure that puts teamwork to the test through fun and insightful challenges. Using a custom game app, teams unlock GPS-based tasks designed to highlight team dynamics, problem-solving, and communication skills. From photo and video missions to clever clue-solving and decision-making, each challenge reveals how individual strengths contribute to team success. After the team building activity, teams reflect on their experience to turn laughs and lessons into stronger collaboration back at work.
Hunts
The Great Race
This event, inspired by the television show The Amazing Race, pits teams against each other in a race around a fun event location, such as a theme park or resort, entertainment and shopping district, or city center. Teams have a great time chasing down route locations and completing a variety of fun team tasks such as roadblocks, detours, and intersections!
Explore! – GPS Hotspot Hunt
If you want your teams to go “out and about” to explore an area of interest, then this is the hunt for you! Teams view a live map of the event area, marked with GPS hotspots. Their goal is to make their way towards these hotspots and when they are within range, challenges open up automatically for them to complete. A wide variety of fun challenges await including taking photos, making videos, and answering questions that incorporate trivia, music, pictures and more!
Sustainability Quest
In Sustainability Quest, teams come together to complete fun, engaging challenges that unlock real-world donations toward global sustainability projects. As teams tackle trivia, photo and video tasks, puzzles, and more, they fund initiatives like planting trees, supporting farmers, or providing clean energy. Every completed task group unlocks more impact, turning teamwork into meaningful giving. At the end, the winning team is crowned—but everyone celebrates knowing their efforts made a difference for people and the planet.
Mixer / Icebreaker Games
Eat. Talk. Play.
Turn your meal into a deliciously fun team experience with this interactive, food-themed event! As guests dine, they’ll also play—teaming up to tackle entertaining app-based challenges served in rounds throughout the meal. From trivia, puzzles, and photo fun to hilarious videos, each course brings a new flavor of engagement and teamwork. By the end, one table will rise to the top—but everyone leaves the mixer full of laughs and great memories!
Make The Connection
An ideal activity to get guests mixing and mingling at a reception. Guests must connect with a different guest to complete each challenge. The more they do, the more points they win (and the more people they meet)! Sample challenges include finding things in common, such as someone wearing the same color as you and taking a selfie together to prove it; performing an action challenge, such as showing off your best party trick in a video; interviewing someone about their favorite vacation spot; or striking a pose, such as wearing sunglasses in a duo selfie!
