Icebreakers that don't suck
Office & Teams
Team games usually die at the first step: something needs installing, and installing anything on a work laptop means a ticket. These run in a browser, which is the whole point.
Office and team games with no IT approval needed
The host shares the board on a screen or over a call, and everyone joins from their own phone. No software, no accounts, no admin rights, and nothing for anyone to expense.
They suit a standup energiser, an offsite icebreaker, a remote team's Friday wind-down, or the part of a holiday party where nobody knows what to do next.
Common questions
- Do we need an app to play these office games?
- No. The host opens a game on any screen and everyone else scans a QR code with their phone camera. It all runs in the browser that is already on the phone — nothing to install, and no account to create.
- What do we need to host office party games?
- One screen everyone can see — a TV, a laptop, or even a propped-up phone — and a phone each for the players. That is the whole setup.
- Can we play these over Zoom or a video call?
- Yes. Share the board screen on the call and every player still joins from their own phone, wherever they are.
- Is it free?
- Hosting is free for small groups. Larger rooms, and hosting without the watermark, need a Pro plan or a one-off day, weekend or event pass.
- What happens if someone's phone drops out?
- They rejoin the same seat with their score intact. Rounds also run on timers, so one missing player never stalls the game for everyone else.
