Frequently Asked Questions

Consider your group size, available time, and the setting. For large groups, choose games that scale well. For shorter sessions, opt for quick activities (our "Short Videos" section). For in-depth team building, explore our "Long Videos" section. Also consider the energy level you want - some games are high-energy and physical, while others are more reflective and conversational.

Short videos (typically under 5 minutes) offer quick, easy-to-implement activities perfect for quick warm-ups or transitions. Long videos (over 5 minutes) provide more comprehensive explanations, detailed instructions, and often include variations or deeper facilitation tips for more complex games.
