A mixture of games gives employees different ways to participate.
Your event could include:
Employees can compete individually, as teams or as departments.
Turn part of your venue into a temporary arcade.
Employees can visit the arcade area throughout the day, or individual machines can become part of a larger team competition.
For head-to-head competition, Mario Kart DX Twin can create a racing championship between colleagues.

Compete for the fastest racing result.
Test employees using Batak Lite.
Run a company basketball shootout.
Create a high-score competition.
Run pool or table football tournaments.
Each activity can award points towards an overall leaderboard.

Each team then competes across several challenges.
Alternatively, keep employees in their existing departments.
Create competitions such as:
Sales vs Marketing
HR vs Finance
Operations vs Technology

This can create plenty of friendly rivalry throughout the event.
Reaction challenges are particularly useful when you have lots of employees attending.

Scores can be recorded and added to your team leaderboard.
Racing games can provide one of the main competitions.
Employees can participate in qualifying rounds throughout the day.

For larger companies, each department could nominate its fastest racer for the final competition.
Sports-style arcade games can add another type of challenge.
A basketball competition using Pac-Man Basketball can be incorporated into a wider team tournament.
Employees can compete individually or combine their scores as a team.
This works particularly well alongside racing and reaction challenges.
Not every activity needs to be highly competitive.
Social games provide employees with somewhere to relax and talk.
Options can include:
These can be positioned near food, drinks or breakout areas.

12:30 — Lunch
13:30 — Team Challenges
