Chaos Games Are For Winners & HR Will Not Approve (at first)
Chaos Games – For The Highly Physical & Competitive Team
If you are a team that wants to compete in fun games focused on physical competition, we got you.
Normally, we are focused on inclusion and accessibility but for Chaos Games those are not our primary design consideration. Instead we have games with titles like Poison, Submit, and Gladiator that require a high activity level and players benefit from a healthy dose of… blood lust.
We are not advocating that you draw blood or hurt each other but nobody plays Poison without some decent takedowns. Submit is going to find you screaming in triumph and Gladiator ain’t messing around.
One of the key game style differences from team building is that Chaos Games often involve elimination. Think dodgeball.
Not gonna lie, an amped up sales team is the perfect candidate for this but that is only because we stereotype you all as Type-A competitive psychos. And we love that about you so we designed combat games for you.
You still get team building related benefits like oxytocin, team problem solving, and time together. HR will have to admit that winning takes cooperation even if it comes with trash talking.
How It Works
You tell us what level of physicality you want and we’ll put together a crazy fun 2 to 3 hour session. Your session will include a variety of games as well as the staff manage them.
This is best played outdoor but we can accommodate indoor settings upon request. Combat games are perfect for a park or beach.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why do you call these combat games?
These games rely on a physicality and conflict style of play that we don’t incorporate into normal team building. These are games you might have seen at the gym or in PE class. These games are focused on winning, sometimes by elimination, and have great opportunities to work together but are not classic team building games.
Can anyone play?
Technically, yes. But unlike our other team building offerings the physical requirements of some of the games, like hard pulling, may require a player to choose to sit out. If 100% participation is needed please see ANY of our other offerings for team building.
Give me an example of a game we might play.
Poison is a favorite game of ours. It’s a game of elimination.
In poison there is a large object placed in the center of a circle of people. Everyone in the circle has linked hands. If you break contact with the person next to you, you’re out. If you touch the object in the middle you’re out. Now picture the entire group pulling and pushing to avoid the object in the center. What if they all decide to focus the group energy on getting Bob from Sales to touch the item in the middle? It’s crazy physical chaotic fun.
