Team-building game
If your offsite needs a workbook, fire the offsite.
This is team building for people who already know each other too well. I make it worse, on purpose.
Remote teams, actual noise
Icebreakers ask what animal you are. I ask for a mugshot and then I use it. Your team joins from wherever they are — kitchen, hotel, that one guy on mute in a car — each on their own phone. I run the show. You keep Slack closed.
It is an adult game. Eighteen and up. I flirt, I roast, I kill people off. Do not book me between the Q3 review and legal. Book me when the team wanted a drink and a story they cannot put in the recap.
Host pays, company laughs
One person starts the game. Everyone else joins free. Packs start at $2.99 a night. Five nights $9.99 if this becomes a problem, which it will.
Still a virtual party game. Not a HR-safe mystery box. Adjacent to a roast.
