Team Building Kits
You‘ve got team building questions? We’ve got answers.
Check out our FAQ section below. If you don’t see your question or want to talk specifically about your company, please contact us.
How does Team Building Kits work?
Our kits use immserive, compelling mysteries and ambiguous problem solving to get teams to bond over a fun time while working on classic teamwork traits like communication, role-setting, creating goals, and trust.
Seems complicated right? It’s as difficult as opening the kit at your office (or wherever) and playing. Really…that’s all there is to it!
We also include a discussion guide so your team can debrief and take away lessons learned.
How many people can play per Team Building Kit?
Each kit is good for a max of 20 people and 4 teams. Bigger teams can easily order multiple kits to cover their numbers. We also offer discounts on second and third kits, etc.
How much does it cost?
Short answer (per kit): $799 for one-time purchases. $699 for a quarterly subscription (cancel anytime). $499 for a year-long quarterly subscription (paid upfront, 1 kit free).
Longer answer: It depends on how many people will be participating in the activity! For example, if you have 40 people participating in the activity, you’ll need 2 kits. When ordering multiple kits at once, we offer discounts. Contact us for an exact quote for your team.
How much time does it take to play?
Kits are designed to introduce the game, play, and have a short discussion afterwards all in about 90 minutes. However, we suggest allowing two hours for the experience just in case people are late or you want a longer discussion.
What comes inside the kits?
It depends on which game you’re playing, but all of our kits come with clues, documents, items, and puzzles. Things that have found their way in past boxes include 3D puzzles, blueprints, talking cards, love letters, newspaper clippings, notebooks, spatulas, drumsticks, t-shirts, aprons, recipes, vinyl records, and the list goes on. Some of our games also have online components like intro videos, code fields, and timers. Everything is designed to lead you through the story and help you figure out the mystery.
What do I need to do to prep for the game?
Basically just:
- Secure a space to play. Could be a conference room, break room, bullpen, anywhere with space to spread out the clues.
- Split people into teams
- If the game has a digital component, make sure there is a screen(s) available for players
- Hand a box to each team and tell them to start
You’ll get a Facilitator Guide in the kit and a digital copy as soon as you purchase. We suggest that you read through it before your event. We’ll also send tips and jump on a call with you before your event to run you through any finer points and make sure you’re comfortable.
Are the kits reusable if I want to play them again?
Yes and no…mostly no.
Kits are designed to be used once. Some materials may be destroyed or manipulated as part of the game. And some of the items are a great keepsake to put on your desk.
As an added perk, subscription members have access to buying refill packets at a much reduced rate from the kits. These will give you duplicates of all paper documents used in the game and include reset instructions. You’ll need to hold on to any physical items in the game, including the boxes they comes in. If you’re interested in a refill packet, let us know and we’ll give more info.
How much does shipping cost?
FREE! It’s freeeeeeee.
Do you ship internationally?
We normally only ship domestically. However, if you need it internationally, we’ll see what we can do. You would be responsible for shipping costs and potential customs.
