The Deceivers – Team Building Activity

Do you have what it takes to uncover the Deceivers among you? Inspired but by no way affiliated with the hit TV show The Traitors, this dynamic activity is a battle of wit, strategy, and deception. Perfect for boosting team collaboration and trust while adding a sprinkle of suspense, The Deceivers will keep your team on their toes, and looking over their shoulders!

Teams will compete across four uniquely themed zones to collect as many Shields as possible, with every challenge designed to test communication, problem-solving, time management, and logic. But beware—there’s more to this activity than meets the eye. Not everyone on your team may have your best interests at heart… From cracking codes and solving mysteries to completing physical and mental tasks, there’s something for everyone. But keep an eye out—the deceivers among you may have their own secret missions!

What clients say about The Deceivers Team Building Activity?

Our recent team-building event with Zing Events was nothing short of spectacular! The activity was engaging and perfectly designed to foster collaboration and communication among the team. Robin and Jason, the facilitators were professional, energetic, and ensured everyone felt included and motivated. We left the event feeling more connected and inspired to work together towards our common goals. Highly recommend for any team looking to strengthen their bonds and boost morale!

Key Team Benefits of The Deceivers Team Building Activity

Collaboration

Diverse challenges foster teamwork, reinforcing bonds and enhancing overall collaboration within the team.

Leadership

Observe the future leaders within your group by the behaviours they display; who is central to the success of the task?

Communication

Teams will communicate using clear and concise messaging between themselves to perform well in this activity.

Time Management

With only a limited time for teams to complete the challenge, delegation and management of resources is key.

How Does The Deceivers Team Building Activity Work?

Our mysterious hooded host introduces the game, explaining the rules, roles, and challenges ahead. The group is divided into teams and then embark on a series of immersive head-to-head challenges, ranging from mental puzzles to physical tests of skill. Each team success earns Shields—protecting team members from elimination, whilst defeat makes teams more vulnerable to banishment or murder. 

Teams go head-to-head in a sequence of challenges, battling it out to win Shields. The team with the fewest Shields at the end of the game faces elimination—murdered from the competition! The remaining teams advance to the final showdown, where the ultimate winners claim gold.
