23 Problem-solving games for busy work teams
Problem solving is a skill that can serve almost anyone, in any role, in any industry. The ability to think critically, and resolve issues is a welcome talent that is helpful for every organization. How can you encourage such thinking in your team? In this article, we are talking about our favorite problem-solving games, activities, and exercises for work. Use these activities to sharpen the reasoning and decision-making skills of your department or your entire company. Without further ado, letâs dive into the best problem solving games for getting the most of your next work event.Â
In-person problem solving games
If you have the opportunity to get your team together in person, thatâs a gift! Perhaps you are planning a company retreat or a department-wide in-person meeting. Whatever the circumstances, in todayâs more digital workspace, itâs not always easy to have everyone in the same room. When you actually do, make the most of it! These activities are set up for in-person groups. They are part team-building activity, part icebreaker, and all fun! All of these activities are guaranteed to get people thinking, communicating, and having fun. If you have a particularly big group, you may want to browse our article on large group games too.Â
1. Treasure hunt
Similar to a scavenger hunt, a treasure hunt is a lot of fun but with a bit more intention. Rather than collecting a random list of items, participants use clues to find more prompts and hints, until the group solves a mystery (or finds a treasure). You can also create a treasure map if you want to play into the âpirateâ fantasy a little more. The important thing is that only clues point toward the next stop - areas of the map should not be spelled out, but involve some problem solving and critical thinking to figure out what the clue means.Â
2. Story challenge
For the language lovers on your team, try this version of an ongoing story icebreaker. To play, each person receives a number of words (a word bank) that they can use to create a story. Then, everyone reads their piece out loud or presents it to the group. To come up with the words available for each person, you can use a random word generator online, or get creative. For example, consider instructing participants that they can only use words from the company website, or from the emails they received in their inbox yesterday.Â
3. Moral dilemma
Similar to a â would you rather â game, this activity centers on ethical dilemmas. Players should try to flex their moral problem-solving muscles by tackling a social issue. For example, Scruples is a popular board game that can be played. Or, you can look online for versions of games like Dilemma or Quandary. This is a great way to learn more about your colleagues while getting a peek at the way they think.Â
4. Build a shelter
How would you survive if you were stranded in an isolated place with a blizzard coming? Use this activity to find out! As an added complication, you can pretend that everyone is blinded by frostbite (by using blindfolds). The team leader must give the group instructions for building a shelter that can withstand the arctic winds. To play, you need a large space and some supplies. Then, select a leader (who can see) and blindfold everyone else. Youâll also need a large fan. The leader guides everyone in putting together their shelter (remember, while blindfolded). When everyone feels confident that their shelter is up to the test, turn on the fan and see if the structure can withstand the wind! This game is sure to lead to a lot of laughs and youâll be surprised at some of the clever ideas that people come up with. This is also a powerful exercise for effective leadership - itâs not easy to reach a goal with a group that is blindfolded! Check out our article on team activities especially for leadership as well.
5. Improv games
You may think of improv games as more of an icebreaker activity, but the truth is there is a lot of brain power that goes into well-done improv. Look for ways to add both logic and entertainment to your next improv effort. Consider scenarios like banned words, where people cannot use a certain list of words, or âmiracle cureâ, where one person shares a problem theyâre having and the other person must come up with the solution on the spot. Both are fun and easy ideas that donât require anything but willing participants! If you need some other quick and easy team building activities , make sure to follow our blog.Â
6. Spaghetti tower
In this classic team building game, users try to build a tower using uncooked pasta noodles and marshmallows. The instructions are simple: use the tools at your disposal to design and build the tallest tower in order to win the challenge. You can judge on height alone, or weigh other factors like innovation, number of towers, or stability. For more simple team building activities , make sure to follow our blog.Â
7. What would you do?
Another classic icebreaker, this game involves coming up with some scenarios that require brain power to address. Here are some prompts you can use with your group:Â
- What would you do if you were at the zoo and all the animals escaped?Â
- What would you do if you were the first person to find out about an upcoming zombie apocalypse?Â
- What would you do if you were in line for a really important item, and a person cut in front of you, getting the last item?Â
- What would you do if you were invited for dinner at the home of someone you really needed to impress, and the food was terrible?Â
- What would you do if an imposter that looks and acts just like you infiltrated your organization? How can you convince everyone that youâre the ârealâ you?
8. âMacGyverâ challenge
MacGyver is an older television program where the hero escaped sticky situations by improvising tools made of unlikely materials. You can recreate this set-up in your event space or office. To play, challenge participants to use 3-5 items to reach a desired end result. For example, something like âa way to pick the door lockâ or âescape vehicleâ are fun options. You can either set out some various equipment, or have people collect their own based on what they can find around the office. Note: if you are doing this in a conference room or other rented space, it makes sense to have a table set up with random odds and ends for people to pick from.Â
9. Egg drop challenge
This one will take you back to high school physics class! Break a larger group into smaller teams and challenge them to come up with a container that will protect an egg even when itâs dropped from up high. You can either let people know far enough in advance that they can discuss, design, and collect materials; or you can have supplies ready and have everyone build their creation on the spot. If you go that route, youâll want to provide a variety of boxes, packing supplies, rubber bands, fabric, etc. Then set up a ladder and have each team drop their container and see if their egg remained intact.Â
10. Shrinking circle
Adaptability and flexibility are huge in the business world. One way to focus on both of those items is by playing this simple and silly game. Start out by using a rope to create a large circle that everyone can fit in. Then, every few minutes, make the circle a bit smaller. Depending on how large the circle is in the first place, you can take away an inch or a foot each round. The challenge is for everyone present to stay inside the circle. This will require some serious innovation once the circle gets small, and lots of laughs almost always ensue. Note: People are likely to end up touching each other in this exercise. Itâs difficult not to once the space gets small, like a game of Twister. You know your colleagues best - if that level of closeness would make anyone uncomfortable, itâs probably best to try a different exercise.Â
Out-of-the-office problem-solving activities
Everyone once in a while, it can be really valuable to get out of your usual work environment and into a new mental space. If your team is planning a multi-day retreat, donât be afraid to include an organized activity that will help everyone to think more critically. Most towns have at least one option for getting your group together and learning some new ways to problem solve. Do some research on what you have available locally, or work with an organization like Surf Office who can plan your next retreat - including the fun elements that your employees will be talking about for months to come! If you know that you canât get out of the office right now, stick to this list of indoor team building activities .Â
11. Escape room
The goal of an escape room is to follow a series of clues and take on some challenges in order to unlock the space that everyone is locked in. There are usually 5 - 10 puzzles that teams will work together to figure out. Typically finishing one leads to another clue, so that participants can move onto the next phase. Only when theyâve successfully completed all of the tasks can they find the key and escape. While you can definitely set up an escape room on your own, we think itâs worth finding a local version in your town (or wherever your retreat is taking place). These are professionally set up and usually in really cool spaces like an underground bunker or a historic building. An escape room is a good excuse to get out of the office and spend time with coworkers in a new environment.Â
12. Murder mystery
These story-based games have people take on a role in a pretend scenario. They may take on a role like detective, dinner guest, or even killer in their dinner. Most of the time the games involve reading lines from a script, searching for clues, or even solving some simple challenges to move onto the next phase. Participants have to pay attention to conversations and context clues in order to get an understanding of who the killer might be. Observation and logic are key to catching the killer. Some murder mysteries involve getting dressed up and having a nice dinner, so if youâre looking for an idea for a big night out capping off your next retreat, this is perfect.Â
13. Ax throwing
What do axes have to do with problem solving? You might be surprised. This is definitely an activity youâll want to go to a professional venue for. Ax throwing outfits have everything you need, plus the right safety precautions. They have everything set up with the proper distances, buffers between throwing stations, safe ax materials, etc. Plus, many of them offer food and drinks! Ax throwing can help with problem solving because most people donât excel at it their first time. It takes some practice and careful consideration to figure out where to stand, the best stance, the force of the throw, etc. As you take turns, youâll make adjustments and also consider new methods based on observing your teammates. The more you watch and the more you try, the better youâll get. In fact, instead of having people compete against each other, we suggest having the team compete against themselves, aiming for a higher total score in their second or third consecutive game. This activity allows you to observe others and then optimize - essentially learning from each other.Â
14. Paper boat race
If you are able to visit a location by water, you can try this really fun activity. In this fun and creative exercise, participants build a small boat with paper (and other supplies) and then race them in a small body of water like a pond or stream. The boats are usually made by folding paper into a boat shape, but you can also try offering cardboard, balloons, popsicle sticks, or other crafty materials. Youâll also want to supply materials for decorating so that everyone can really have their creation stand out. Obviously the person who reaches the finish line first is the winner, but you can offer a few other prizes just for fun, like most beautiful boat or best effort. Make sure to check out our article on other creativity and innovation games , too.Â
Problem-solving puzzles
When itâs just not possible to get everyone together, you can still encourage your team to put on their thinking caps and hone their skills. There are tons of critical thinking games, puzzles , and even apps that people can use to practice problem solving. You can encourage your team members to play these games in their spare time, or even set up a competition where people log minutes playing such games or using the apps. If youâre feeling really generous, give everyone a small stiped to be used on a problem solving app of their choice. This special touch makes a nice addition to a holiday gift, too!
Sudoku has become one of the most popular problem solving games for adults. There are dozens of free app options, as well as paperback books that you can pick up. The goal of this game is to fill each box on a 9Ă9 grid so that every row, column, and letter contains each number from one to nine. It sounds tricky - and it is - but players tend to find it addicting and the game has grown a huge following in recent years. Encourage people to play on their own by downloading an app or purchasing a puzzle book, or as a team by having the puzzles available in your office or at your next event.Â
16. Crossword puzzles
These classic word games have players fill out words based on clues. Words interconnect, and people must think critically about the context clues of what theyâve filled out so far. These puzzles are super versatile and one of the best things about them is that you can make them yourself so they are themed. You can use an online crossword puzzle maker to create a custom puzzle with clues about your business or other relevant subjects. For your next event, it might be fun to have a custom crossword puzzle about your company history or trivia!Â
17. Tic-tac-toe tournament
It sounds a little silly, but tic-tac-toe requires more brain power than one might think. Set up an ongoing tic-tac-toe board in your office and encourage people to use it on their breaks or when they have a few minutes to kill. You can set up a scoreboard and keep track of the leader; itâs a lot of fun to see the rankings change and to challenge the top performers. If you need an even simpler version of the same concept, simply set up the Connect Four game board in your break room and let people have at it!Â
Problem-solving for virtual teamsÂ
If your team is a bit scattered, it doesnât mean that you canât practice solving challenges together. In our digital world, there are plenty of options for online activities that teams can work on either independently or as a group. In the section above, we shared some ideas for independent work. These ideas are designed to bring your team together, no matter where they are. Set a time and have everyone hop onto your preferred communication tool, and then work together tackling these challenges.Â
18. Virtual hackathon
A hackathon normally refers to an event where participants have a set amount of time to design and pitch a new product or solution. Itâs normally used in the tech space for pitching things like new apps, but you can apply the concept in lots of other ways too. In this online version, teams work with each other using virtual meeting software and pitch ideas to a panel of judges. This type of event requires some advance notice for the participants, as theyâll want to collect a team and come up with some designs. If you want to raise the stakes, offer a prize for first place.
19. Online escape room
Just like an in-person escape room, in an online version people must solve a variety of puzzles in order to make it âoutâ. Digital escape rooms normally come in one of two ways: in a Zoom âroomâ led by a host, or in a choose-your-own-adventure style via Google Forms or other websites. To play virtually, staff will enter the meeting and follow the prompts they get, and it might involve screen sharing some Google tools to work on puzzles together. Because of the platforms and tools that may be involved, this activity is better for teams who are a bit more tech-savvy and comfortable with online meetings, apps, etc.Â
20. Survival plans
Prioritizing is an important mental exercise. You can work on this with a game about survival. Have everyone imagine they are stranded on a desert island, and they must decide the correct order to perform life-saving steps in. Have this list handy, and ask everyone to pair off or get in small groups and number the list according to the best likelihood of survival:Â
- Set up shelter
- Look around the island
- Signal for help
- Create weapons for self-defense
- Build a raft for water
- Start a fire
- Select a group leader
- Find other survivors
- Anything else you think of!Â
The catch is that everyone must agree on the order of events! That will typically involve discussion and coming to some sort of consensus. Once everyone is done with the exercise, have them present to the larger group and explain their reasoning. This exercise is good for team-building, communication, and problem resolution. Plus, you will be better prepared if you ever get stuck on a deserted island!Â
21. Online role-playing games (like Dungeons and Dragons)
Seeing how people react in real-world situations is a really interesting way to get to know them better. Find an online game that has real-world actions and consequences, like Dungeons and Dragons. Or, you can make things even simpler by hopping on a Zoom together and reading a Choose Your Own Adventure book aloud, with the reader getting group consensus before making a decision. The important part is the discussion that will occur before choosing the next action. This is helpful for bonding and also helps you to see how your colleagues tick. These activities can be difficult to organize for big groups, so if you have a substantial team, try some of these team building activities for large groups instead.Â
22. Google Docs story
Similar to an ongoing story icebreaker, this game is easy to do online as people have time. You start by creating a Google Doc that everyone on the team has access to. Then, have people go into the Doc and add to the story thatâs developing. If you want, you can pick a prompt to kick things off - or you can just let the first person get creative and go for it! The more specific or bizarre the scenario, the more creative and clever people will have to get to add their portion.Â
23. Model UN
Chances are you might be familiar with this concept from high school. Fortunately, adults can have a lot of fun with it too. You can play this virtually as long as everyone is a strong communicator. Each participant should take on the role of an international diplomat, and work together to form alliances and solve crises. Come up with a potential scenario that the UN must work through. Consider things like a global food shortage, natural disaster, or cyber-security threats. If your group is particularly large, you can have multiple people assigned to a country and they will have separate roles. If politics is a sensitive topic on your team, you might want to tweak this exercise to be focused on a business and treat participants like board members - or even a musical group!Â
Set the tone of your next company retreat
These problem solving games and activities are great virtually any time - there is something for everyone, whether youâre remote or in person, on a large team or a small one. One of the best ways to implement a problem solving exercise is at the beginning of a team retreat. If you have organized a large meeting or team building event, consider getting things started with such an activity. Many of these problem solving games will get everyone thinking and make people more comfortable, plus a lot of them also serve as a form of icebreaker.
The next time you plan a work retreat , consider including a few of these on the agenda to set the tone for a fun, energizing event. Need help ensuring that your retreat is, in fact, fun and energizing?

45 team building games to improve communication and camaraderie
Team building games bring everyone together without the added pressure of work. Here, weâve listed 45 of the top team building activities broken down by icebreaker, problem solving, indoor, and outdoor games.
As Ashley Frabasilio, Employee Engagement Manager at Asana puts it, âCreating a shared experience for teams to build relationships is one of the best ways to increase trust and encourage collaboration."
Whether youâre looking for indoor or outdoor activities, quick icebreaker games, or activities to bond with your remote team members, we compiled a list of over 45 team building games that youâll actually enjoy.Â
How to make team building inclusive
Teams with an inclusive culture tend to be more transparent, supportive, and happy because everyone feels accepted. Itâs essential to make any team activity feel productive and enjoyable for the entire group, regardless of personalities or skill sets. Whether youâre working on building an inclusive remote culture or want in-person teams to feel more comfortable together, consider the following for an inclusive team building experience:
Inclusive team building means including everyone. Depending on the type of team building activity, you may benefit from hiring an outside expert to facilitate a team building event that everyone can participate in. Plus, the activity may feel more authentic because a professional is guiding you.
If you have introverts on the team, they may not be as excited about an exercise that involves lots of social interaction and do better in small groups.Â
Teammates with speech, sight, or hearing impairments may feel left out during a game that involves blindfolding players and communicating without looking at each other.
Physically active games could exclude physically impaired teammates.Â
Before choosing one of the team building games from this list, take stock of everyone's abilities. Find an activity that everyone on your team can participate in. Maybe even send out an anonymous poll to see what kinds of activities your team would be willing to partake in. Ultimately, the best team building activity will be the one that everyone can enjoy.
Team icebreaker games
Icebreaker questions and activities are the perfect âgetting to know youâ games but theyâre also fun to play with teammates youâve known for a long time. You can play them to get everyone up to speed for a meeting (especially on those 8am calls) or use them to introduce new team members.
1. Two truths, one lie
Team size : 3+ people
Time : 2â3 minutes per person
How to play : Ask everyone in the group to come up with two facts about themselves and one lie. The more memorable the facts (e.g., I went skydiving in Costa Rica) and the more believable the lies (e.g., I have two dogs), the more fun the game will be! Then, ask each team member to present their three statements and have the group vote on which one they think is the lie.
Why this exercise is great : This game is perfect for groups who donât know each other well yet. The details you share can be used as building blocks for late conversations (âWhat else did you do in Costa Rica?â) to give you a better idea of who youâre working with.
2. Penny for your thoughts
Team size : 5+ people
How to play : Youâll need a box full of pennies (or other coins) with years only as old as your youngest team member (not the time to brag about your 1937 collectorâs penny). Ask every team member to draw a coin from the box and share a story, memory, or otherwise significant thing that happened to them that year. This can be anything from learning how to ride a bike to landing your first job.   Â
Why this exercise is great : This is a fun twist on a stress-free and simple icebreaker that gives everyone the chance to share a personal story with their team. You can play multiple rounds if the stories are on the shorter side or let team members elaborate on their stories to gain deeper insight into their lives.
3. Mood pictures
How to play : Prepare a variety of images before you play. You can collect newspaper clippings, magazine cutouts, postcards, and posters or print out different images from the internet (Pinterest is a great spot). The images should show landscapes, cities, people, shapes, or animals in a variety of colors and perspectives.
Lay all the images out and ask team members to each pick one that resonates with their current mood. Once everyone has picked an image, ask them to share what they resonated with, how it makes them feel, and why they picked it.
Why this exercise is great : This exercise is a great way to get a meeting or a workshop started because it allows you to get a feel of the room in a creative and unexpected way. You donât always have to ask your team to pick an image that reflects their moodâit can also be their expectations for a workshop, their feelings about a current project, or how they hope to feel at the end of the day. As they say, a pictureâs worth a thousand words, so this exercise makes talking about feelings easier for a lot of people.
4. One word exercise
Time : 5â10 minutesÂ
How to play : Pick a phrase related to the meeting topic and ask everyone to write down one word that comes to mind on a post-it. Then, gather these words on a whiteboard or put them in a presentation. For example, if youâre hosting a meeting about your annual holiday event. Everyone would take a moment to respond with the first word that comes in their head. If the team is responding with words like stress or exhaustion, you might want to rethink your process.
Why this exercise is great : This is a way to collect opinions, thoughts, or feelings about a meeting thatâs well within most peopleâs comfort zone. Youâll have the chance to read the room before diving into the topic and may uncover some concerns or questions to focus on, which will make the meeting more beneficial to everyone.
5. Back-to-back drawing
Team siz e: 4+ peopleÂ
Time : 5â10 minutes
How to play : Split your team into groups of two and make them sit back to back. Hand one person a pen and piece of paper and show the other person a picture of something thatâs fairly simple to draw (e.g., a car, a flower, a house). This person now has to describe the picture to their teammate without actually saying what the item is so they can draw it. Theyâre allowed to describe shapes, sizes, and textures but canât say, âDraw a lily.â Once the blind drawing is finished, compare it with the original to see how well you communicated.
Why this exercise is great : This activity is a fun way to polish your communication skills, especially your listening skills. It also gives your team a chance to get creative and innovative by thinking outside the box to describe the image to their teammate.
6. Birthday line up
Team size : 8+ people
Time : 10â15 minutes
How to play : Ask your entire team to form a line in order of their birthdays without talking to each other. You can encourage other forms of communication like sign language, gestures, or nudges. If you want to add a little bit of pressure and excitement to the exercise, add a time limit!Â
Why this exercise is great : Besides learning everyoneâs birthday (which can always come in handy as a conversation starter later on), this exercise encourages your team to learn to communicate towards a common goal without using words. Although this can be a challenge and get frustrating, this exercise promotes problem framing skills, cooperation, and non-verbal communication skills.
7. Charades
Team size : 8â10 people
Time : 10â25 minutes
How to play : Divide your team into groups of four or five people. The person who goes first is given or shown a random object (e.g., printer, stapler, keyboard) in private. They then have to demonstrate how to use the object without actually showing it in front of their team. Their team gets 30 seconds on the clock to shout out the correct word (you can adjust the time depending on the difficulty of the objects).
Then itâs the other teamâs turn. Youâll keep playing until every team member has had the chance to demonstrate an object to their team.Â
Why this exercise is great : This classic game is a nice way to break up a mentally taxing day and get your team to do a creative exercise that isnât work-related.
8. Swift swap
Team size : 10â20 people
How to play : Â Split your team into two groups and line them up facing each other. Team A gets a quick observation period (15â30 seconds) in which group members have to memorize as many things about the people in front of them as possible. Then team A turns around while team B changes as many things about their appearance as possible.Â
Anything from changing the line up order to swapping shoes with someone or changing your hairdo is fair game. After about 45 seconds, team A turns back around and gets 5â10 minutes to find out whatâs changed. You can adjust the time depending on the size of your group.
Why this exercise is great : This game is a great way to break up a long day and take everyoneâs minds off work for a little while. Your team also gets to practice time-sensitive non-verbal communication during the swapping phase.
9. Code of conduct
Time : 20â30 minutes
How to play : This game is a great way to tune into a new project or workshop. Write the two categories âmeaningfulâ and âenjoyableâ on a whiteboard and ask the group to share what they believe is needed to accomplish these two things for your project or workshop. This can be anything from âregular breaks'' to âtransparency and honesty,â which could fall under either category.
Everyone will choose ideas that they agree are both meaningful and enjoyable . Record these values in a shared tool to establish the code of conduct for your upcoming project or workshop. This list will function as a reminder for the team to uphold these values.
Why this exercise is great : Whether itâs the first day of a workshop, the beginning of a new project, or simply a Monday morning, this exercise is great to get everyone on your team on the same page. By establishing group norms and values early on and holding everyone accountable with a written code of conduct, you can create a sense of cohesiveness. If youâd like to do this exercise virtually, use our team brainstorming template to collect everyoneâs thoughts.
10. Common thread
Team size : 10+ people
Time : 30 minutes
How to play : Divide your team into groups of three to five people. Then ask your team to find things everyone in their group has in common. This can be a favorite TV show, an ice cream flavor nobody likes, or a common hobby. Encourage your teammates to find common threads that arenât too superficial or obvious. The more things they can find that everyone in the group has in common, the better! If you have the time, bring everyone together afterward and ask the teams to share their experiences.
Why this exercise is great : This fun game allows your team to find commonalities that they may not get a chance to discover otherwise. Itâs also a great way to reunite teams that feel a bit divided. Talking about shared likes and dislikes can be helpful to reconnect you with teammates.
Remote or virtual team building games
Bonding with your teammates can be more difficult when youâre working remotely. Remote or virtual team building games can improve remote collaboration , motivate teams , and create a sense of community even though youâre physically apart. You can use Zoom to connect with your teammates or do quick team building exercises via your remote work software during the day.
If your team is located across multiple time zones, you may have to get creative with scheduling. Ashley Frabasilio, Employee Engagement Manager at Asana encourages leaders to schedule these activities during normal work hours. Ensure that the activity is appropriate for all participants in all time zones so no one feels excluded. Using work hours for these exercises can also increase the participation rate because youâre not interfering with personal time.
11. Show and tell Â
How to play : Ask everyone in your team to bring something theyâre proud of or that brings them joy to your next meeting. This can be anything from a pet to a plant, a painting they did, or a certificate they received. Everyone gets two to three minutes to show off their item and answer questions from the team if they have any.
Why this exercise is great : Show and tell isnât just fun for kids, itâs also a great way to connect with your team. Youâre probably going to learn something new about your teammates and may get a couple of conversation starters for your next meeting from this game.
12. Photo caption contestÂ
How to play : Collect a few funny photosâfor example a few memes that have recently been circling the internet. Send these to your team before the meeting and ask everyone to submit their best photo caption for each image. You can put these together in a quick presentation and present them to your team during the call. You can have a good laugh together and even vote for the best captions.
Why this exercise is great : This exercise is a fun way to get creative as a team and have a good laugh together.
13. Morning coffeeÂ
Time : 15â30 minutes
How to play : Schedule regular coffee calls for your remote team to give everyone a chance to get to know each other like they would in an office setting. You can schedule team calls with four to five people or randomly assign two people to each other that switch every time. You can offer these casual calls once a week, bi-weekly, or once a month, depending on your team size and the interest in this opportunity.Â
Why this exercise is great : Remote teams donât often get a chance to just chit-chat and get to know each other without talking about work or feeling like theyâre wasting meeting time. By designating 15â30 minutes on a regular basis to a casual call, your team members will have a chance to bond with people they might not typically interact with.
14. Lunch and learn
How to play : Hold a weekly or monthly âlunch and learnâ where one team member presents a topic to the whole team during their lunch break. This presentation can be on a tool everyone uses at work, on a lesson learned from a recent project, or even on a book they read that everyone can learn from.Â
Why this exercise is great : These events are a great opportunity for your team to connect in a more casual yet educational setting. If your team budget allows, send restaurant gift cards to your team members so they can order lunch for the call.
15. Online group game Â
Time : 30â60 minutes
How to play : Invite your team to play a game online together. This can be an actual video game if everyone happens to use the same console at home or you can download an interactive game (like Jackbox ) which you can screen share with the rest of the group.Â
Why this exercise is great : Playing a video game or an interactive game that has nothing to do with work can be a fun way to switch things up, create a more casual work environment, and get to know each other better. It will also give people with great sportsmanship a chance to shine!
16. Trivia gamesÂ
Team size : 6â20 people
Time : 30â90 minutes
How to play : Start a meeting with a quick game of trivia or host a regular virtual trivia night at the end of the work day. You can play a game of office trivia (e.g., facts about the company) or pick random other themes like TV shows, music, or national parks. To mix things up, ask other team members to host trivia night.
Why this exercise is great : Whether youâre making the trivia game office-themed or creating a regular team activity that takes everyoneâs minds off of work, youâll get to spend time with your team playing a competitive, educational, and entertaining game that gives everyone a chance to bond.
17. Quarterly challenge Â
Time : One month
How to play : Create an optional challenge for your team to participate in. The challenge can be centered around healthy eating, meditation, journaling, or reading. Create a chat or thread where your teammates can exchange their experiences, wins, and questions to keep each other motivated and accountable throughout the month.Â
Make sure your team knows that participation is optional. It never hurts to ask for feedback to spark future team challenge ideas.
Why this exercise is great : Creating a challenge like this for your team shows them that you care about their work-life balance. By offering a quarterly challenge, you provide your team with the opportunity to share an experience together. Plus, itâs always easier to complete a challenge when you have a team who supports you and an incentive to work toward. Â
18. Personality test Â
How to play : Send a personality test to your team and ask everyone to share their results in a chat or during your next team meeting. This can be a formal test like the Enneagram or StrengthsFinder . For something more lighthearted, you can send a fun quiz like the Sorting Hat to find out which Hogwarts house you belong in or a Buzzfeed quiz (e.g., â What Kitchen Appliance Are You? â).
Why this exercise is great : Depending on the type of quiz your team takes, this can become a funny icebreaker before you start a meeting or turn into a discussion on your teamâs combined strengths and challenges.Â
Problem solving games
Playing problem solving games with your team helps them level up their teamwork skills, resolve issues, achieve goals, and excel together. Whether youâre using new brainstorming techniques or going out for a team adventure, these fun team building activities are the perfect way to improve your team's problem solving skills.
19. Your first idea
Team size : 5â12 people
Time : 10â20 minutes
How to play : Ask everyone in your team to write down the first idea that pops into their head when theyâre presented with the problem. Compile the list and review it as a team.
A fun twist on this game is to ask everyone to write down their worst idea. After reviewing with the team, you may realize that some ideas arenât that bad after all. You can play this game with a real-life problem, a fictional one, or when youâre brainstorming new ideas to pitch.
Why this exercise is great : We often get too much into our heads about problems and solutions. By writing down the first solution that comes to mind, we can uncover new perspectives and fixes.
20. Back of the napkin
Team size : 6â24 people
Time : 15â20 minutes
How to play : Divide your team into groups of two to four and present them with a variety of open-ended problems. These can be work-related, imaginary, or even environmental problems. Every team gets a napkin and pen that they have to sketch or write their solution on after theyâve discussed the issue as a group. These will then be presented to the rest of the team.
Why this exercise is great : Some of the best ideas have allegedly been recorded on napkins (hey, when creativity strikes youâll write on anything). This game imitates this scenario while challenging your team to collaborate on solving a creative problem.
21. Create your own
How to play : Each team member will create an original problem-solving activity on their own and present it to the group. Whether this entails a physical, mental, or creative challenge is up to your team. If you have the time, play some of the games afterward!
Why this exercise is great : Coming up with your own games is fun and a real creative challenge. It also allows your team members to showcase their strengths by creating challenges theyâll be prepared to tackle.
22. Spectrum mapping
Team size : 5â15 people
How to play : Present your team with a few topics that youâd like their opinions and insight on. Write them down on a whiteboard and give everyone sticky notes and pens. Ask them to write down their thoughts and pin them on the whiteboard underneath the respective topic.
Now arrange the sticky notes as a team. Try to group similar ideas together to the left of the topic and post outliers toward the right side. This will create a spectrum of popular thoughts and opinions on the left and more extreme ideas on the right.
Why this exercise is great : This game will help you map out the diversity of perspectives your team has on different topics. Remember that unpopular opinions donât have to be wrong. Embracing this diversity can help you uncover new perspectives and innovative ideas to solve problems youâre facing as a team.Â
23. What would âXâ do?Â
Team size : 5â10 people
Time : 45â60 minutes
How to play : Present your team with a problem and ask everyone to come up with a famous person or leader they admire. This can be a celebrity, a business person, or a relative. Challenge your teammates to approach the problem as if they were that person and present their solution (extra points for playing in character).
Why this exercise is great : Getting stuck in your own head can often keep you from solving a problem efficiently and effectively. By stepping into the shoes of someone else, you may uncover new solutions. Plus, itâs fun pretending to be someone else for a little while!
24. Team pursuit
Time : 1â3 hours
How to play : Form groups of two to six people that will compete against one another in a series of challenges. You can buy a team pursuit package online or create your own game, which will take a good amount of prep time.Â
Youâll want to create a set of challenges for your team: cerebral challenges that test logic and intelligence, skill challenges like aptitude tests, and mystery challenges which usually ask for creativity and out-of-the-box thinking (e.g., come up with a unique handshake, take a fun picture, etc.). Â
Why this exercise is great : A solid game of team pursuit will create a fun challenge that gives everyone a chance to shine and show off their talents. Whether youâre a good runner, a quick thinker, or a creative mind, everyone will be able to contribute to the success of the team. This game will bring your team closer together and show them new sides of their teammates that they may not have been aware of.
25. Code break
Team size : 8â24 people
How to play : This brain teaser is a fun activity that you can play indoors or outdoors to challenge your team. Outback Team Building offers self-hosted, remote-hosted, and on-site hosted events that include several codes your teammates have to find and break to make it through the course.
Why this exercise is great : This challenge requires creative thinking, creates a competitive environment, and works with large groups because you can break off into smaller groups.
26. Escape room
Time : 2â3 hours
How to play : Visiting an escape room is always a unique experience and a great way to spend an afternoon with your team. If you have multiple escape rooms nearby, ask your team if they have a general idea of what theme theyâd like to explore (e.g., history, horror, sci-fi) and try to pick something youâll think everyone will enjoy.
If youâre super creative and have the time and resources, you can put together an escape room on your own!
Why this exercise is great : Solving the mysteries of an escape room with your team will reveal the strengths and weaknesses of your teammates, foster communication and collaboration, build trust, and become a shared memory that connects you together.
Indoor team building games
Most of these indoor games can be played in an office, conference room, or a hallway with a small team, but you may need a bit more space if youâre inviting a larger group to join in.
27. Perfect square
Team size : 4â12 people
How to play : Divide your team into groups of four to six and ask them to stand in a tight circle with their group. Ask everyone to blindfold themselves or close their eyes and give one person a rope. Without looking at what they're doing, the teams now have to pass the rope around so everyone holds a piece of it and then form a perfect square. Once the team is sure their square is perfect, they can lay the rope down on the floor, take off their blindfolds (or open their eyes) and see how well they did.Â
Why this exercise is great : This game is about more than perfect geometric shapes, itâs an amazing listening and communication exercise. Because no one can see what they're doing, your team members have to communicate clearly while figuring out how to create a square out of a rope. Besides, itâs often really funny to see how imperfect the squares come out.
28. Memory wall
How to play : Youâll need a whiteboard and sticky notes for this game. Write different work-related themes on the whiteboard such as âfirst day at work,â âteam celebration,â and âwork travel.â Hand each teammate a few sticky notes and ask them to write down their favorite memories or accomplishments associated with one or more of these themes. Invite everyone to share these with the team to take a walk down memory lane and post the notes on the whiteboard as you go.
Why this exercise is great : This is a nice way to end a week, long day, or workshop because youâll share positive experiences with one another that will leave your teammates smiling. If youâre finishing up a work trip or multi-day workshop, you can also do a slimmed-down version of this by asking everyone to share their favorite memory or biggest accomplishment of the last few days.
29. Turn back time Â
How to play : This team building exercise works best in a quiet atmosphere with everyone sitting in a circle. Ask your team to silently think of a unique memory in their lives. You can give them a few minutes to collect their thoughts. Then, ask everyone to share the one memory theyâd like to relive if they could turn back time.
Not everyone may be comfortable opening up at first, so be sure to lead with vulnerability and make everyone in the room feel safe about sharing their moment.
Why this exercise is great : This exercise is a great way to help your team members remember their priorities and bond on a deeper level. In a team thatâs facing disconnection or stress, sharing personal highlights that arenât work-related can help create a sense of togetherness. Although the exercise doesnât take too long, itâs best to do it toward the end of the day so your team has a chance to reflect on whatâs been said.
30. Paper plane Â
Team size : 6â12 people
How to play : Split your team into groups of two to four and hand out card stock. Give each team 10â15 minutes to come up with the best long-distance paper plane design (theyâre allowed to do research on their phones or computers) and a name for their airline.
When the paper planes are done, have a competition in a long hallway or outside to see which plane flies the farthest.Â
Why this exercise is great : This exercise requires team members to collaborate on a project with a tight timeline. It is a great activity to practice communication skills, delegation, and time management.
31. Build a tower
Team size : 8â16 people
How to play : Divide your team into groups of four or five and provide them with 20 sticks of uncooked spaghetti, one yard of tape, one yard of string, and one marshmallow. Challenge each team to build the tallest tower possible using only the supplies you gave them. When finished, the tower has to support the marshmallow sitting on top. Set the timer for 20 minutes and ask everyone to step away from their masterpiece when it runs out so you can crown a winner.
Why this exercise is great : This challenge is a great way to improve problem solving skills and communication within your team. Your team members will have to prototype, build, and present the tower in a short amount of time, which can be stressful. The better they work together, the more likely they are to succeed.
32. Flip it over
Team size : 6â8 people
How to play : Lay a towel, blanket, or sheet on the floor and ask your teammates to stand on it. The goal is to flip the piece over without ever stepping off of it or touching the ground outside of the fabric. You can make the challenge more difficult by adding more people to the team or using a smaller sheet.
Why this exercise is great : This exercise requires clear communication, cooperation, and a good sense of humor. Itâs a great way to find out how well your teammates cooperate when presented with an oddly difficult task.
33. Sneak a peekÂ
Team size : 4â20 people
How to play : Create a structure out of Lego pieces and hide it in a separate room. Divide your team into groups of two to four people and give them enough Legos to replicate the structure in 30 minutes or less.
One player per team is allowed to sneak a peek at the original structure for 15 seconds, then run back and describe it to their team. The person who gets to sneak a peek rotates so everyone gets to see the original at some point during the game. The team that first completes the structure as close to the original wins!Â
Why this exercise is great : During this game your team gets to focus on teamwork and communication. Since only one person at a time is allowed to look at the original, team members may see and describe different things. The more complex the structure is, the harder this game will be.
34. Pyramids
How to play : Pick a large open area for this game like a hallway, a meeting room, or the cafeteria. Divide your team into groups of four to six and give each team 10 paper cups. Ask the teams to stand in a line with about 8â10 feet between the team members. Now itâs a race against time!
The first person in each line has to build a pyramid with four cups at the base. Once theyâre done, the second player has to help them carry the pyramid to their station (this can be on the floor or at a table). They can slide it on the floor or carry it together but if the pyramid falls apart, the players have to reassemble it on the spot before continuing their journey. At the next station, the second player has to topple the pyramid and rebuild it before the third player gets to help them carry it to the next station. This continues until the pyramid reaches the last station. The team that finishes first wins the game
Why this exercise is great : This game is fun to play during a mid-day break, fosters communication skills, and promotes teamwork.
35. Shipwrecked
Team size : 8â25 people
How to play : The premise of the game is that youâre stranded on a deserted island and only have 25 minutes to secure survival items off the sinking ship. Place items like water bottles, matches, food, etc., in the âshipwreck area.â You can also print pictures on index cards to make things a bit easier. The quantity of each item should be limited, with some items having more than others (e.g., more water than food, fewer tarps than teams, more knives than ropes, etc.).
Divide your team into groups of two (or more if itâs a large team). Once the clock starts, they have to gather as many items as they deem worthy from the shipwreck and rank them in order of importance. Since the items are limited (some more than others), the teams will not only have to prioritize the items within their own group of people but also negotiate, trade, and exchange items with other teams.Â
Why this exercise is great : This game will challenge problem-solving abilities, encourage collaboration, and enable your team to flex their leadership skills. Typically, teams with strong leadership qualities will have the most success in making these quick decisions.
36. Team flag
Time : 30â45 minutes
How to play : Divide your team into groups of two to four people and provide them with paper and pens. Each group now has to come up with an emblem or flag that represents their team. Once everyone has completed their masterpiece, they have to present it to the rest of the teams, explaining how they came up with the design. This exercise is also a great opportunity to discuss how each group identified their common values and created alignment during the design process.
Why this exercise is great : This is a great way to get the creative juices flowing. Your team will not only have to come up with a unique design that represents their collective identity but theyâll also have to collaborate on putting pen to paper and presenting their flag or emblem at the end of the game.
37. Salt and pepper Â
How to play : Youâll need a list of things that go well together like salt and pepper, left sock and right sock, day and night, peanut butter and jelly, or yin and yang. Write these words on individual pieces of paper and tape one sheet of paper on every team member's back.Â
Ask your team to mingle and find out whatâs written on their back by asking questions that can only be answered with yes or no (e.g., âAm I sweet? Do you wear me? Am I cold?â). Once the participants find out who they are, they have to find their match!
Why this exercise is great : Your team can use this game to bond with one another and improve their communication skills. If you have a large team, this exercise also gives them a chance to interact with people they may not usually get to talk to.
38. Sell it
Time : 45â90 minutes
How to play : Ask your teammates to each bring a random object to the meeting. Everyone then has to come up with a logo, slogan, and marketing plan to sell this object. After 30 minutes, each team member has to present their new product to the rest of the team. If you have a larger team, divide them into groups of 2â4 people and ask them to collaborate on their product pitch.
Why this exercise is great : This game is great to switch things up if you donât already work in marketing or sales. Itâs also fun to play with others as it allows your team to get creative and have fun with everyday objects.
39. The barter puzzle
Time : 1â2 hours
How to play : Divide your team into groups of three or four people and give each a different jigsaw puzzle of the same difficulty level. Ask them to complete the puzzle as a team. The twist: each puzzle is missing a few pieces that are mixed in with an opposing teamâs puzzle. The teams have to figure out ways to get the pieces they need from the other teams by negotiating, trading pieces, or even exchanging teammates. Every decision has to be made as a team. The first team to complete their puzzle wins.
Why this exercise is great : Every decision made will have to be a group decision which challenges your team to improve their problem solving skills. Â
Outdoor team building exercises
If you want to get a larger group together for a team building exercise, why not take things outside? Outdoor team building is also a great way to get your teammates to interact without the distractions of screens or smartphones. Whether you want to catch a breath of fresh air or get some sunshine together, these exercises will help you bond with your teammates outside of the office.
40. The minefield
Team size : 4â10 people
How to play : Create a minefield in a parking lot or another large, open space by sporadically placing objects like papers, balls, cones, and bottles. Split your team into groups of two and ask one person to put on a blindfold. The other person now has to guide the blindfolded teammate through the minefield only using their words. The blindfolded person is not allowed to talk and will be eliminated if they stop walking or step on anything in the minefield.Â
The objective of the game is to make it to the other side of the minefield. The teams can then switch so another person will be blindfolded and guided through the field on their way back. You can also distribute pieces the blindfolded person has to pick up on their way through the field to add another difficulty level.
Why this exercise is great : This game is not just a trust exercise for your teammates but also a fun way to practice active listening skills and clear communication.
41. Earth-ball Â
Team size : 5â20 people
Time : 15â45 minutes
How to play : Youâll need a balloon, beach ball, or volleyball for this activity. Ask your team to stand in a circle and keep the balloon or ball in the air for as long as possible. To make it a real challenge, no one can touch the ball twice in a row. The bigger your team, the more fun this game will be!
Why this exercise is great : This fun challenge is a great way to get your team moving. If youâre struggling to keep the ball up for longer, try to come up with a strategy to improve your time.
42. Scavenger hunt
How to play : Put together a scavenger hunt for your team. This can be in the form of a list of photographs they have to take (e.g., something red, all teammates in front of the company logo, the CEOâs car, etc.), items they have to collect (e.g., company brochure, yellow sticky note with managerâs signature on it, ketchup packet from the cafeteria, etc.), or other activities they have to complete on a designated route.Â
Why this exercise is great : The more people that tag along, the more fun this game will be. You can group people together who donât know each other very well to allow them time to bond during this exercise. Try to come up with company-specific quests for your team so they learn a few fun facts along the way. You can offer prizes for the most creative team or the first to finish the challenge to boost motivation.
43. Egg dropÂ
Time : 60â90 minutes
How to play : Divide your team into groups of two or three people and give each team a raw egg (keep some extras in case they break before the grand finale). Then put out supplies like tape, straws, rubber bands, newspapers, and balloons so the teams can build a structure for the raw egg that will protect it from a fall out of a second or third story window.Â
Each team has 60 minutes to complete their structure. When the time is up, ask your teams to gather their eggs and egg cages to drop them out of the window. This grand finale will reveal which team engineered and built the best cage.
Why this exercise is great : Collaborating on a design and building a cage will challenge your teamâs problem solving and collaboration skills.
44. Team outing
Team size : Any
How to play : Plan an outing for your team. You could attend a cooking class or go to a museum together. If you want to have something your teammates can work toward, plan to run a 5K together or host a ping pong tournament. You can also do something more casual like inviting your team to hangout at a bowling alley after work where you can play a few games in a casual and fun setting.
Why this exercise is great : Taking your team somewhere new will help break down some of the walls we often build in a professional setting. While youâre still at a company function, youâre more inclined to connect through casual conversation at a restaurant or park than you would at the office.
45. Volunteer as a team
How to play : Organize a team event during your regularly scheduled workday. This can be a charity event, yard sale, or fundraiser for a cause your team cares about. Even though these are enjoyable, scheduling them during work hours makes this feel like more of a perk than an obligation.
If your team members have a few causes theyâre truly passionate about, consider making this a monthly or quarterly event. You can also rotate the charities that youâre helping out to accommodate your teamâs different interests.
Why this exercise is great : Experiencing helperâs high can improve your personal health and mental state. Sharing this rush that doing good can give you will help your team bond on a deeper level.Â
Benefits of team building
Team building is more than a fun break from your everyday routine at work. It also:
Improves communication, trust, and collaboration skills
Promotes a collaborative culture by bringing teammates together
Fosters agile decision making and problem solving skills
Boosts team productivity and morale
Uses creativity and outside-of-the-box thinking
Ashley Frabasilio believes that:
A common goal is to create a memorable and meaningful experience for folks to connect. Some questions to consider when planning an impactful team-building activity include: What do I hope folks walk away with? I.e., a new skill, a deeper connection to one another, personal development, a moment of delight, etc.â
Ask yourself these questions before proposing a team building activity so you can reap the full benefits of the exercise.
Bring your team together, creatively
As you can see, there are plenty of ways to build your teamâs confidence, connection, and teamwork skills. While team building is fun, itâs also important to connect with your team on an everyday basis. To build one of those connections in your day-to-day work, the right collaboration software is key.Â
