Virtual Scavenger Hunts

The Great Race

Our best-selling scavenger hunt activity has gone remote for remote teams! This virtual team building activity is inspired by television’s Amazing Race – a popular competition in which teams travel the world. Your remote teams will have a great time during this virtual scavenger hunt that celebrates travel! Individuals playing from home, work together as a team to participate in a variety of challenges. Team communication is key and facilitated through your preferred video chat platform. Challenges include “routes,” with travel-related trivia questions, clues, and photo tasks; “detours” which allow players to choose which of 2 tasks they prefer to complete; high-scoring “fast forward” challenges; and “roadblock” challenges. The goal is to score more points than any other team before you cross the finish line. Finally, when the journey ends, a link to a presentation of photos taken during the online hunt is shared for all to enjoy.

Around The World

Take your team on a virtual globe-trotting trip around the world, visiting 22 countries across 40,000 virtual miles while putting your teamwork, collaboration skills, and creativity to the test! Upon arrival in each country, players unlock tasks using image recognition technology. Starting in Argentina, each country contains a series of tasks & challenges. Challenges range from performing a Bollywood dance in India and demonstrating Kung-Fu skills in China, to answering questions about the rainforest in Brazil, to exploring well-known landmarks on Google Maps to uncover the answers to questions.

Virtual Games And Team Builders

Not “Bored” Game

Board games are popular, but how can you play one when you are not all in the same room? By playing this high-tech version where all players can view the game board on their own devices. Teams race against the clock answering questions revolving around popular culture trying to score as many points as possible before time runs out. Strategy is put into play as teammates must work together to determine the correct answer for each challenge. Your group will definitely not be bored as they engage in this fast-paced “board” game.

The Pitch – Inspired by Shark Tank

Teams come up with a pitch for a fictional new product or service that will revolutionize their industry! Then they divide and conquer to complete their presentation such as filming an ad campaign, creating and taking a picture of the logo for their product, recording a video of a breaking news story, and more. The virtual meeting leader then shows what each team presented via an online slide show and participants then get to vote for their favorite pitch – but no voting for their own!

Connections Team Challenge

This virtual game allows your group to connect in spirit, even when they can’t in person. During Connections Team Challenge, teammates collaborate while they each play on their own iOS or Android device to complete a series of challenges revolving around connecting. Challenges include photo and video tasks such as arranging players on their video platform screen, so a portion of all four of their faces come together to make one. Trivia Challenges such as naming the country from the connect-the-dots puzzle shown on the screen. And, Feedback Challenges designed to encourage discussion, such as deciding which of their school mascots would have been the most likely to win the 100-meter dash if all were competing against one another. A live scoreboard shows how teams are faring and which one will be connected with the name “winner” at the end of the game!

Option: Customize this game show providing up to 10 custom trivia questions about your organization.

Charitable Virtual Games

Donation Quest

Even though your group may not be together in person, they can still work together remotely to make a difference for a non-profit! This activity is completely themed to charity, community, and giving back and challenges teams to answer trivia questions, solve clues, take photos, and make videos throughout the quest. Each participant plays on their own mobile device and works with their team to earn points. Together, they make their way through the game board, collecting “gems” and ultimately unlocking the vault to release a monetary donation for your chosen charity. At the end of the event, the Game Master shares a link to a presentation where teams can view all photos and videos submitted during the event.

Option: Customize this virtual give back activity with up to 5 custom trivia questions that put the spotlight on the charity of your choosing. Additional customization is available for a fee.

Make An Impact

Make a real-world impact with this global give back activity that gives your remote participants a say in how a donation – provided by your organization – will be used in the real world. After each set of tasks focused on health, education, food, and the environment, teams will select which project they would like to fund. Will they choose to focus on sustainability projects, green initiatives, providing food to children and families in need, or medical supplies? At the end of the virtual event, we will reveal exactly how impactful your donation will be to communities around the world as we share all of the projects funded by your group.

Players may also be asked to take a fun photo after throwing on a makeshift ghost costume or record a video showing off their most evil laugh. When the game is over, players get a treat, as your entire group views a highlights reel of photos and videos submitted during the game.

Oh What Fun!

Celebrate the holiday season virtually this winter with this holiday-themed game! Your group of any size can play in small teams, or for a family friendly party each player can play with their own household. Players use their own mobile devices as they have a jolly old-time completing holiday-themed tasks or challenges attempting to outscore all other teams. Challenges include solving holiday-themed clues such as figuring out what type of dessert is being hinted at by the picture puzzle, or sorting out which letters to use from all shown to reveal a holiday phrase. Players may also be asked to take fun photos that tie into the puzzles. For instance, after solving a riddle revealing “make a snowman” as the solution, players are tasked with taking a creative photo with a snowman. When the game is over, it will be anything but a silent night, as your entire group gets an opportunity to view a highlight reel of photos and videos made by players during the game.

One thing that our clients love the most about Wildly Different as a virtual team building event company is that our Game Masters also do a LIVE kickoff, provide support throughout your event, and conduct a LIVE ending for your virtual team building activity.

How To Prepare For A Virtual Team Building Event

How To Book Lead Time App Based Event

How do I book a virtual team building activity with Wildly Different?

To book a virtual team building activity with us, you can contact our team directly by going here. Be sure to let us know if there is a specific virtual team game you are interested in, and approximately how many participants you will have. Additionally, be sure to let us know if you have a specific date in mind.

How much notice is required in advance to book a virtual team building activity?

Like any virtual team building event company, we cannot guarantee your virtual team building activity or hold a date and time until we’ve received a signed contract. However, as soon as you know the date you are interested in hosting a virtual game, we recommend contacting us to see if we currently have availability and to get the planning process started. An ideal timeframe to plan a virtual event is two weeks in advance. Of course, to guarantee availability, the more planning time, the better!

Our virtual team builders are available via 2 methods: app based, or by logging online using a link provided once everyone has logged into the selected meeting platform (Zoom, Google Meet, etc.).

App Based Virtual Games

Players download an app onto their mobile device to play through the experience while they utilize their laptop or computer to communicate throughout the virtual game via a video chat (such as Zoom or your preferred online meeting platform). As players join the call, a Game Master welcomes the participants and provides an introduction of the virtual game. Then, the Game Maser will send the group into breakout rooms where teams of 5 to 6 players will collaborate.

Depending on the game selected, players may take photos and videos, solve clues, and submit answers to fun trivia questions. As teams complete tasks, they will earn points. The more points they earn during the time allowed, the better their chances are of winning. The game also features a live scoreboard so teams can keep track of their competition.

At a set time, teams will return to the main session of the online meeting platform where a Game Master will reveal the top teams. If teams submitted photos and videos, the Game Master may also share a slideshow with select photos and videos submitted during the virtual team building activity.

What are the benefits of doing a virtual team game for work?

According to a study conducted by Owl Labs in 2020, 16% of the global workforce is fully remote. The report from Owl Labs also pointed out that 62% of the global workforce aged 22 to 65 work remotely from time to time or in a hybrid role (spending part of their time in an office, and part of their time working virtually). In the United States, 4.7 million people work remotely on occasion. Though, it is important to point out that these numbers increase each year!

With more of our global and national workforces working remotely or in hybrid roles each year, it’s important for organizations to keep their employees fully engaged. By offering virtual team building games for your employees, you can:

Improve Communication & Collaboration

By working together on a virtual escape room or virtual scavenger hunt, teams will solve clues and tackle tasks, which can enhance their critical thinking skills. The unique questions and challenges within these virtual games will provide team members with rare opportunities to discover their colleagues’ individual strengths. The skills utilized during a virtual team building event can be applied to your employees’ daily jobs and workplace responsibilities.

Boost Employee & Company Morale

Virtual team building games for work such as virtual mysteries and trivia-based games like the Not “Bored” Game offer opportunities for remote teams to come together in a fun and exciting way. By completing one challenge at a time and earning points throughout the game, teams form bonds while enjoying the experience. Having fun and connecting with colleagues will not only improve employees’ moods, and but it will also improve their perception of how your organization values their employees as individuals.

Establish Relationships & Build Trust

Virtual team building activities such as The Great Race (a virtual scavenger hunt) allow remote team members to step outside their everyday work lives and show-off their individual personalities. While completing a variety of engaging tasks and submitting photos and videos, team members are able to engage with one another through conversations and learn about each other on a personal level. These exchanges not only offer opportunities for employees to connect but they also increase their trust within the organization.

Encourage Creativity

By organizing a virtual team building event for your company, you will provide your remote employees with an opportunity to use their brains and critical thinking skills in a new or creative way. For example, in order to solve clues in a virtual escape room, teams must collaborate. As a virtual team building company, we consider ourselves expert clue writers, which is why our virtual escape rooms, including Undercover Escape are very popular! Virtual escape rooms are perfect for large groups (500 or more participants) and small groups alike, as they are an innovative way to get groups thinking with different parts of their brains to tackle unusual challenges in the time allowed.

Build Comradery

The most important thing at any organization is to bring your group together. Let’s face it, people like working with their friends! By planning a virtual team building game for work, you will build comradery and give your employees an opportunity to develop bonds. This in turn leads to reduced turnover for your organization (which in the long run will save your organization lots and lots of money). With virtual or remote teams, it is essential to provide virtual team building opportunities so coworkers can establish relationships with one another.

What are the different types of virtual team building activities?

Virtual Mysteries

Does your group of detectives have what it takes to crack the case before time runs out?
