Chain Reaction
Build it. Connect it. Set it off.
Teams race to design and build miniature catapults that meet a tricky brief within a tight timeframe, each one convinced they’re competing to be the best in the room.
Then the penny drops. Every catapult is part of something bigger, a single chain reaction running the length of the room, and it only works if every team’s piece connects to the next.
From there, it’s a different game entirely. Teams need to share insights, pool resources and align their efforts, with extra mini-games along the way offering the chance to win more resources for the final build.
Perfect for…
Groups looking for a project-based activity that lands a clear message about wider organisational goals, wrapped up in a genuinely fun, hands-on build.
Available indoors — 60 to 180 minutes, 20 to 500 players.

In this engaging, project-based team building activity teams must be part of something bigger to trigger a chain reaction.
This dynamic, project-based team-building activity, individual teams must come together to create something extraordinary through a creative and fun activity, that unites everyone in the room.
Each team is tasked with designing and building a machine that meets a challenging brief within a tight deadline. At first, the focus is on competing to complete their catapult, but the twist comes when they realize their creation is just one part of a larger, interconnected process.
When the bigger picture becomes clear, teams must then collaborate, share resources, and align their efforts to ensure the entire session succeeds.
With added mini-games to earn extra resources, Chain Reaction is an engaging and interactive way to highlight the importance of working towards shared organizational goals in a fun and memorable setting. Although based in teams this activity highlights the issues of silo thinking and working as all teams in the room are pivotal to the success of the activity.
Combining competition, creativity, and collaboration, this is an exciting and active way to unite your team and achieve something extraordinary.
