Scavenger Hunt + Hidden Actors + Creative Brilliance = The Hustle
This is our flagship scavenger-hunt style game, played anywhere, anytime.
So when you need some healthy competition to build excitement in the office, nothing does it better than this!
This is our top-selling team building event, suitable for Staff Rewards Day, Off-site Events, or strengthening bonds in existing or new teams.
Our flagship game formats are creative, unique, destination-focused, interactive, and designed for all ages and fitness levels.
Planted clues, creative interpretive missions, trivia, conspiring pedestrians and unlikely characters are all woven magically together to bring you a team- building experience like no other.
Plus – we have a ‘no bottle-neck guarantee’ … if you’re not sure what that means, that’s ok.
But essentially we guarantee that you won’t be standing around waiting for other teams. This is one of biggest hurdles for any game with over 50 players.
Explore your environment
The mission may be a clue a creative challenge, a photo replication, a creative video submission, or require you to locate a hidden actor amongst the crowd.
Using the App to control gameplay, teams are able to scroll through a ‘live feed’ of all other team submissions, see where they sit on the leaderboard, choose in which order to complete certain missions, submit photo/video challenges and receive messages and in-game updates in real-time.
Creative missions
Teams solve missions and tasks by taking photos or making short videos. Think re-enactments of video games, movies acted with fingers or the recreation of iconic scenes.
Creative Challenges are featured during the ‘Presentation & Voting’ at the end of the game.
Planted actors
In The Hustle, we incorporate planted actors as part of the game.
They give teams the feeling that ‘anyone is in on the action’. We also include activity facilitators for a variety of checkpoints for larger groups.

Team outcomes
If you love The Amazing Race or classic Scavenger Hunts, you’ll love this. It focuses on a huge range of skills and outcomes, it all depends on how you play and what you want us to focus on.
A shared mission — Every team is chasing the same goal, but how they get there is entirely up to them.
Sharpened communication — With planted actors and location clues, talking clearly and listening fast is the difference between winning and getting played.
Energy that lasts — The photo/video slideshow continues after the day. We send everything to you post-event to share internally or with the world!
FAQ
Where is this held?
You tell us the general area and we’ll recommend or build a gamezone to suit. We build games anywhere and everywhere!
Do we need an ending venue?
Ideally, yes. A semi-private area with AV is perfect. Ending the game in your office, then heading to a local bar is perfect!
Are there prizes?
We provide a novelty prize for last place and our coveted Gold Medals for first place. You are most welcome to bring more to raise the stakes!
Can this be run in a conference venue?
Absolutely. We custom build games in a variety of gamezones every day.
Is the game inclusive for people with a disability?
Your Event Producer will customise your game to be suitable for your group. That may mean planting some of your colleagues as ‘hidden actors’ for others to locate!
