Team Building in the Twin Cities You’ll Actually Remember

When strength and speed don’t win, the quiet shine bright.

Inconspicuous Games turns local venues (like the Minneapolis Institute of Art) into secret playing fields. Teams compete using strategy and coordination. Speed, strength, and seniority not required.

FAQs

  • Inconspicuous Games are facilitated team games played in public spaces… inconspicuously!

    Our flagship game is a take on Capture-The-Flag, designed so teams win through strategy, coordination, and shared decision making rather than speed or strength.

  • This works best for teams that want something more meaningful (and memorable) than a typical team outing. It’s especially great for mixed-role teams, leadership groups, and anyone tired of icebreakers that feel forced or awkward.

  • Not at all! These games are designed so speed and strength don’t win… teamwork does. Quieter voices often shine, and even the most competitive players have to collaborate to succeed.

  • Most games are designed for groups of about 14–30 people. For larger teams, we can run multiple games at once. We’ll help you figure out what makes the most sense.

  • Games happen in high-traffic public spaces like landmarks, parks, or highly populated downtown areas. Everything is planned in advance so it feels seamless & intentional.

    We lead games in Minneapolis & NYC at venues including:
    Minneapolis Institute of Art, the Mall of America, Grand Central Station, Oculus, Bryant Park, The Met Museum, Time Warner Center, and Times Square.

  • Each game is fully facilitated from start to finish. A trained facilitator meets your team at your office, offsite, or game venue to set the stage with a brief learning-oriented introduction and clear game instructions. From there, they stay with you as the game unfolds. The full experience lasts about two hours, including light travel time depending on location.
