If your team can meet
Book the offsite game
- Everyone in one place, at a real venue
- 10 to 1,000+ pax
- Physical puzzle kits, and our people on the ground
Virtual team building · since 2020
Host a virtual escape room your team joins from anywhere.
A live-hosted escape game played over Zoom, for a team that cannot be in the same place. Your group splits into teams of six inside a fully interactive 360 room. You pick things up, turn them over and drag them about, and everyone's cursor is on screen at once, so you can point at the thing you mean instead of describing it.
A game master runs the hour from the call. Facilitators drop hints when a team goes quiet for too long.
Watch first
Thirty-five seconds of what it actually looks like.
Recorded from a real session rather than a mock-up. If the format is new to your team, this is the quickest way to show them what they are being signed up for.

Most teams should book the in-person game.
We would rather say that up front than sell you the wrong thing. Here is the honest split.
If your team cannot
Book virtual
- Everyone on their own screen, wherever they are
- 20 to 150 pax, in teams of six
- A 360 room, a host on the call, hints when you stall
Most of our virtual work comes from clients outside Singapore. Here we are asked for it perhaps once a year, because teams can usually just meet. We have been running games in Singapore since 2013, and remote ones since 2020. For the in-person version, see corporate team building or team bonding.
The case files
Three virtual team building games, all about an hour.
01 Horror
Count Dracula
A secluded village, a vampire who feeds at night, and the chambers where his body rests through the day. Find them before he wakes, through a maze of corridors that branches every time you choose a direction.
02 Thriller
Flash Point
Joseph Exodus has left a dirty bomb in a warehouse in the heart of the city, with enough power to level it. Evacuation is impossible and the countdown is already running.
03 Investigation
CSI: A Good Night to Die
A death at a hotel that the police have closed, and suspects about to walk free. You are brought in to find what the first investigation missed. Closer to a Cluedo than an escape game, so it suits a team that would rather talk than click.
When it is the right call
When remote team building is the right call.
- 01
Teams split across countries
The case it was built for. People in different cities, one hour, nobody on a plane.
- 02
A team where some cannot travel
Parental leave, medical, visa, or a colleague on the wrong side of a time zone. Everyone plays the same game from wherever they are.
- 03
A short slot in a longer agenda
It fits inside a conference day or an all-hands without moving anyone out of the building.
Before you ask
Virtual team building questions.
Do you run virtual escape rooms?
Yes. We run live-hosted virtual escape games over Zoom, about an hour each for 20 to 150 people, with one of our game masters hosting. There are three to choose from: Count Dracula, Flash Point and CSI: A Good Night to Die. We have been running remote games since 2020. Most of that work is for clients outside Singapore, and we are rarely asked for one here, because teams in Singapore can usually get in the same room.
How is it different from an in-person escape game?
A virtual game is played on a video call. Everyone joins from their own screen, teams of six explore a 360 environment together with each other’s cursors visible, and a game master runs the room and keeps the clock. An in-person offsite game is played on real ground at a venue, with physical puzzle kits and facilitators on site. The in-person version is the better day if your team can be in one place, and we will say so.
What do we need to run one?
A laptop and a stable internet connection per person, and Zoom, which is where the host runs the session from. The game itself plays in the browser, so there is nothing to install for that and no kit to post out. If your IT policy blocks Zoom, tell us early and we will work out the alternative before you book.
How many people can play at once?
Between 20 and 150. The group is split into teams of six that play in parallel, with a host running the whole session from the Zoom call, so a larger headcount does not make the hour longer.
Does a virtual escape room count as team building?
That is what it is for. Teams of six have to search the same room from six different screens, so the group has to say out loud what it is looking at, split the work and agree on an answer before the clock runs out. It is the same thing an in-person game trains, minus the travel. If your team can meet, the offsite game does it better.
Can you run it as a corporate team bonding session?
Yes, and most of the groups we run it for are corporate. Team bonding and team building are the same booking to us, virtual or not. Tell us the headcount, the time zones involved and the slot you have, and we will tell you whether an hour online is the right shape for it.
How much does a virtual escape room cost?
It is priced per group rather than per seat, and the rate depends on headcount and which game you want. Tell us the numbers and we will quote it. We are non-GST registered, so there is no GST on top.
Should we book virtual or in person?
In person, if the team can physically meet. It is a better experience and it is what most of our work is. Book virtual when the team genuinely cannot be in one place, or when you need something that fits inside an existing agenda without moving anyone.
