When the email landed in my inbox “Team Building Day at Game Over Brisbane!” I’ll admit, my expectations were low. I pictured awkward icebreakers, forced small talk, and maybe a limp sandwich in a windowless meeting room. But what actually happened was a total game changer (pun intended).
From the moment we walked through the doors at Game Over Brisbane, it was clear this wasn’t your average team day out. The venue buzzes with energy, bright lights, laughter, and the unmistakable sound of go-karts zipping around the track. We barely had time to drop our bags before we were suited up and ready to race.
And let me tell you, nothing reveals your coworkers’ true personalities quite like a competitive go-kart race. The usually reserved IT guy? Turns out he’s a speed demon. The quiet admin assistant? She’s a tactical genius, taking corners like a pro. By the end of the race, we were all grinning, high-fiving, and already swapping stories about our near-misses and photo finishes.
Next up: laser tag. If you’ve never seen your finance manager crawl commando-style behind cover, you’re missing out. We split into teams and, suddenly, people who barely spoke in the office were strategising, giving pep talks, and covering each other’s backs like seasoned pros. The thrill of the game broke down barriers, job titles disappeared, and we were all just teammates on a mission.
What surprised me most was how the fun spilled over into everything else. Over lunch, delicious and catered by the Game Over team, I found myself chatting with someone from another department I’d never really spoken to before. We discovered a shared love of travel, swapped book recommendations, and laughed about our laser tag mishaps. It was the kind of genuine connection that just doesn’t happen in the office.
One of the best things about Game Over Brisbane is the variety. Not everyone’s a speed freak or a laser tag champ, and that’s okay. Some of us took a break in the arcade, reliving childhood memories with classic games and trying our luck at the claw machines. Others headed to Pirate Putt Mini Golf for some friendly competition (and a few spectacularly bad shots). There’s even a GoPlay Playground for younger visitors or those young at heart.
Planning a big team event can be a headache, but the staff at Game Over Brisbane made it a breeze. They helped us customise our schedule, took care of food and drinks, and made sure everyone felt included and comfortable. All we had to do was show up and have fun.
If your team needs a morale boost, a fresh perspective, or just a break from the usual routine, I can’t recommend Game Over Brisbane enough. We returned to work with more laughs, stronger connections, and a renewed sense of team spirit.
So go ahead—book that team building day. Trust me, your team will thank you.
