Christmas party gamesTips for the host
- Test the screen and sound the day before, and check that the TV or computer is online.
- Make the teams in advance and mix the departments. Four per team is perfect for the escape room.
- Show the code on the big screen while people find their seats, so everyone is connected when you start.
- Keep an eye on the clock in the escape room, and remind teams about the hint button if they get stuck.
- Take breaks between the items, so there is time for food, drinks and a chat.
- Have a small prize ready for the winners. A chocolate Santa works wonders.
Questions about the Christmas party
Can you play alone?
No. Every game on GameBase is made for at least two people sitting together, and there are no computer opponents. The escape room and the Christmas quiz are only fun when you share them.
How many can play?
In the escape room you play in teams of 2–6. If there are more of you, split into several teams, each with its own screen. The Christmas quiz takes up to 30 phones, and teams can share a phone, so the whole company can join in.
Does it cost anything?
Right now everything is free, the escape rooms too, while we get payments ready. Companies that want help with the setup, their own quiz and an invoice can get a quote.
Do we need to be on the same Wi-Fi?
No. The phones connect with the code over the internet, so they can use mobile data or any network. They just need to be in the same room as the screen, so you can see it.
Do we need to install an app?
No. Everything runs in the browser, both on the big screen and on the phones.
What if we do not have a TV?
Use a computer with a projector, or play on one iPad or computer in the middle of the table. Both the escape room and the Christmas quiz can be played on one screen.
Can we use our own questions?
Yes. With Make your own quiz you write questions about the company and your colleagues and play them in the Quiz Lounge. If you would like help, send us a message.
