Here at Events Made Simple we took a standard treasure hunt, combined it with 9 fantastic team building challenges and gave it a big injection of fun and healthy competition to create ‘The Treasure Chest’. Our giant chest is filled with ‘must have’ prizes such as wine/chocolates and secured with 9 padlocks. Your group will be divided into small teams. After that it’s a race to be the first team to get the 9 keys needed to break open the locks and claim the treasure inside.
The activities themselves are all designed by our expert team to test your staff in a variety of ways whilst also being great fun to try. Each challenge will focus on a different skill, whilst looking like something straight out of TV shows like The Cube or Crystal Maze. Therefore, if you’re looking for an interesting way to bring your team together, improve communication and develop trust, then this is the ideal activity for you.
Your groups will start with a large treasure map showing the locations of the 9 challenges and a list of items they have to recover from around the venue. Every activity you complete will earn you a key to the chest. But until you recover the missing items you won’t know the actual location of the treasure. Navigate your way around a labyrinth board, be ready to solve our giant puzzles, test your reactions and beat the clock in this unique and exciting series of challenges.
To succeed with this activity, your teams must decide how to approach the game. There are no rules on how to manage your time and as long as you complete the challenges and find the items, you’ll have done your bit. However, in a competitive environment there is no time to waste and no prizes for second place. Communication, cooperation and problem-solving skills are essential if you want to win the day.
Indoor or Outdoor Activity
The Treasure Chest works as an indoor activity, outdoor activity or a combination of the two. Each event is tailored to the suit your chosen venue so it works well for most locations. The setup time is 1 hour and this activity typically runs for around 1 hour, 30mins.
As a standalone activity this can accommodate groups of 10 - 120. For greater numbers this can be included as part of a larger activity package.
“Thanks so much for all of your help at our event on Wednesday, it was absolutely brilliant and everyone has given us such good feedback.”
