The missing player is a hybrid team building that takes place outdoors and whose content is customized to the company. Teams can be geographically distributed in different locations (or not) but the members of the same team must be physically gathered.
This is a cooperative game where the goal is to rescue a valuable member of your company who has been kidnapped. You will have 90 minutes, in teams of 3 to 6 players, to complete physical, cognitive and social challenges. All activities are performed directly on the players’ smartphones through our mobile application and players will have to be ready to move around to advance the game.
A member of your organization has been kidnapped by a criminal organization led by an unorthodox character called “The Goalie”.
The kidnapper threaten to torture your colleague if the employees do not carry out his demands to the letter. To do this, the employees will have to show courage, cooperation and not be afraid of ridicule! Fortunately for you, inspector Samson of the Tactical Forces is leading a large police operation to assist you.
Between the criminal’s outlandish demands and the tactical forces’ risky missions, will your employees succeed to find their colleague in one piece?
A few days before your team building activity, we inform your employees that a kidnapping could occur in the next few days within your organization. Through videos and a newspaper article, they learn who the perpetrator is, what his intentions are, and why your company could be the Goalie’s next target.
This is a great way to create mystery, excitement and speculation for your event!
Only a few hours/minutes before your team building activity, your employees learn that a member of their work team has been kidnapped, via a breaking news report.
A newsreader, a live reporter, a personalized report – everything is done to add credibility to this unbelievable situation.
Divided into teams, your employees use a mobile app to help the ongoing police investigation and track down their missing player. The 90-minute activity takes place outdoors. It doesn’t matter where the teams are physically located, as they only have to walk around while waiting to receive further instructions. So you can mobilize your employees (in small or large groups), regardless of distance or even country!
2 to 3 hours after your Rescue Operation, you’ll receive your very own best of video featuring the highlights of the investigation in which you were involved.
It’s a great way to round off your activity. Laughter guaranteed!
The missing player is an outdoor activity. It can take place in the heart of the city, in an urban park or a resort. The chosen location must have good cell phone coverage (avoid natural sites that are too isolated or remote).
Only one person can be kidnapped. However, it is possible to involve other members of the management or staff in the concept.
In the activity called The Missing Player, players are asked to move around in small teams of 3 to 6 players in an outdoor environment. Since we don’t require them to go to any specific places, or to cover any specific distance, teams are free to go wherever they want.
Although we strongly recommend that the activity take place outdoors, rain or shine, indoor venues such as shopping malls or underground passages (e.g. subways) are interesting alternatives in case of rain.
Absolutely! It’s an activity that’s accessible to everyone. Players walk an average of 2 to 3 km in 90 minutes. Since players are free to cover the distance they wish, and at the speed they prefer, the total distance covered is not a factor in the success of our adventures.
The activity lasts 90 minutes, but we prefer you to book 2 hours in your agenda. The Best of video is delivered the same day (2 to 3 hours later) and lasts 12 to 20 minutes, depending on the number of participating teams.
Absolutely!
