These activities go beyond productivity, helping reduce isolation and strengthen bonds among colleagues. Whether you aim to improve communication, spark creativity, or simply have fun, games as a virtual team-building activity can bring your group together.
Virtual Escape Rooms
Escape rooms have become a popular choice for virtual team-building. In these challenges, participants work together to solve puzzles and uncover clues within a set time limit, with the goal of escaping from a themed virtual environment. Whether your team is solving a murder mystery or looking for pirate treasure, virtual escape rooms are a fun way to connect.
These activities foster collaboration by encouraging participants to communicate effectively, think critically, and trust each other under pressure. The race against time adds excitement, making it an excellent way to strengthen teamwork and problem-solving skills.
Online Trivia Challenges
Trivia competitions are another fun way to bring remote teams together. These light-hearted challenges spark friendly competition and encourage team members to interact in a relaxed environment. Trivia games also offer the chance to learn new things about colleagues, strengthening interpersonal connections.

Virtual Scavenger Hunts
Virtual scavenger hunts are ideal for breaking up long workdays. Participants are given a list of items or challenges to complete—whether it’s finding something in their home or snapping creative photos—all within a set time frame. Some popular themes are holidays and nostalgia.
This activity promotes creativity, quick thinking, and physical movement, offering a refreshing change from sitting in front of screens. Scavenger hunts are also great for energizing participants and bringing out their playful side.
Brick Challenges
Inspired by the concept of building something out of limited resources, virtual brick challenges require participants to construct objects using bricks from a kit sent to participants before the session. These challenges can be held over video calls, where team members showcase their creations and explain their thought process.
Brick challenges are particularly effective at sparking creativity and encouraging problem-solving. They also provide insight into each team member’s unique approach to tasks, fostering mutual respect and understanding.
Feud Frenzy
Inspired by game shows like Family Feud, Feud Frenzy challenges teams to guess the most popular answers to survey questions. Teams must think strategically and collaboratively to come up with responses that reflect the majority view.Â
This activity is great for building camaraderie and teamwork, as it requires both strategic thinking and communication. It also injects humor into meetings, making it a popular choice for light-hearted team-building sessions.
Virtual Gift Exchange
Virtual white elephant gift exchanges let your team unwind and have fun. Participants unwrap gifts virtually, participate in a holiday trivia contest, and steal gifts from teammates in a festive event led by high-energy and engaging hosts. The team will build camaraderie and bond with each other, then leave with virtual gifts that will be mailed to them afterward.
You can choose from two gift levels: standard and premium. The difference between the two levels is the cost of the gifts. You can also choose to provide your own gifts.Â
Virtual games like these provide more than just entertainment—they play a crucial role in building trust, improving communication, and fostering creativity. Whether through puzzle-solving, friendly competition, or collaborative tasks, these activities help remote teams stay connected and engaged, ultimately creating a more cohesive work environment.
