Designed around the run sheet
The game must coexist with arrivals, catering, speeches, noise and venue changeovers. We plan staffing and throughput against the event schedule, not an imaginary empty room.
- Guest arrival hook
- Roaming play
- Hosted rounds
- Sponsor-safe theming
- Queue prevention
- Pack-down window

What happens before play
Good play survives contact with the real room. These working checks protect the pace, the participants and the promise made in the brief.
Choose the engine
Cooperation, discovery, creative building, social deduction or a deliberate mix.
Make a rough version
A prototype exposes confusing rules and slow moments before they reach your guests.
Run it properly
We agree the final scope, staffing, equipment, access plan and wet-weather route.
Table missions
Compact rounds built around clues, negotiation, deduction or making. Useful when the venue is seated and conversation matters.
