Corporate team building without the cringe – how to plan something they’ll actually enjoy
Suddenly, it’s the middle of Q4: deadlines are piling up, inboxes are overflowing, and your team is running on stress. Just as you’ve managed to keep the chaos contained, the email enters your inbox: “Can you organise a team building day?”
You know the drill – awkward icebreakers, painful dinners, or boring activities that take more effort to plan than to enjoy. Corporate team building shouldn’t feel like an uphill battle. The good news? It doesn’t have to be a challenge (dare we say, it could actually be fun?)
Corporate team building that feels natural
Forget the karaoke bar that splits the bold from the introverted, or the escape room that everyone’s already done. StreetHunt Games rewrites the idea of a team social.
No awkward icebreakers; you get natural team bonding. Instead of logistical nightmares, StreetHunt Games can be set up in minutes.
This self-guided mystery plays out on the streets of London, York, or Manchester. Your colleagues become the detectives, and the city is their gameboard. The puzzles are clever enough to spark teamwork, yet relaxed enough that no one is put on the spot.
Corporate team building made simple
StreetHunt Games is:
- Self-guided – no strict schedule and optional hosts
- Phone-based – just grab your phone and go
- Outdoor – fresh air and away from the office
- Two adventures to choose from – Will Breaker and The Case of Colombia’s Finest
Booking couldn’t be easier – if less than ten, simply head to the StreetHunt Games website, choose your adventure, and claim a time that suits your team. If your group is more than 10 players, fill out our group event form here.
How big will your crew be when the hunt begins? Games can be booked for groups of 4 to 100+ players, with larger teams able to split into smaller teams racing to solve the mystery. Everything is self-guided through your phone, transforming the city into your game board. Need a helping hand? Our hosts can set the scene, guide your team, and keep the experience on track through every clue.
Using your phone; follow the clues around the streets of the city you thought you knew, and uncover the mystery together. There are two stories to choose from:
The Case of Colombia’s Finest pulls your team into the world of Jim Robusta’s coffee company – a business with secrets brewing underneath. From courtyards to alleyways, it’s your team’s job to piece together the truth. For corporate groups, this story provides the thrill of problem-solving and collaboration that happens naturally when the clock is ticking.
Will Breaker offers a different challenge: the chance to claim your uncle’s inheritance before the trail goes cold. Teams must balance logic, observation, and intuition to move forward in the game. A story that appeals to teams who thrive on strategy and collective thinking. Only by cracking your uncle’s cryptic trail through the city, can your team uncover the truth.
Team bonding is written into every clue
Whether you’ve got new employees, seasoned managers, or a mix of everyone, StreetHunt Games works across every group of people. No one is the leader, and everyone gets to contribute. The game gives natural roles to the puzzle-solvers, navigators, and observers – so the whole team is involved.
Since the game runs itself, you’re free to focus on the fun. No standing around wondering what to do next, just a shared challenge that gets people talking long after the story is over.
