CHOOSE THE RIGHT KIND OF EVENT
Four ways to bring a team together
The right choice depends on how much you want to organize, where people will be, and whether you need a shared custom experience. These are common delivery models, not ratings of individual companies. Packages can overlap.
| Approach | A good fit when… | Your planning role | Confirm before booking |
|---|---|---|---|
| Custom producer-led event | You want a host to run the event and adapt the game to your group, agenda, or brand. | Share the brief, headcount, access needs, and venue details. Agree on content, staffing, and AV with the producer. | Ask what customization is included, how everyone participates, and which production or travel costs are in the quote. |
| Marketplace booking | You want to browse different suppliers and activity types through one booking service. | Compare individual listings. The supplier, host, platform, and inclusions can vary between experiences. | Confirm who delivers the event, the cancellation terms, shipping if relevant, and whether custom content is available. |
| Self-guided app | Your team can manage its own start time and facilitation, and you prefer a flexible activity. | Choose the route or prompts, brief the players, support devices, and manage the finish unless your package includes support. | Check content setup, staff support, connectivity, location access, and how scoring and submissions work. |
| Venue-based experience | You want to take the team to an established setting, such as an escape room or a game-show venue. | Arrange transport, arrival times, and any food or meeting space around the venue’s available sessions. | Confirm active player capacity, accessibility, private use, and what happens if your group needs several sessions. |
Where The Go Game fits
We design and run producer-led game shows, adventures, and other team experiences on our own technology. Selected adventures also offer self-hosted options. A custom hosted event is useful when your agenda, company content, or mix of in-person and remote participants needs coordination. If your team already has a facilitator and wants to manage its own activity, ask about self-hosted availability.
For a venue-based outing, the setting itself may be the draw. For a marketplace, the range of suppliers may make browsing easier. Compare the actual delivery plan and total cost, rather than assuming every listing or package includes the same service.
