Why this team day out really works

A Qugato city game combines action, teamwork, and genuine fun. Teams must collaborate, solve puzzles together, and think outside the box to solve the riddles and maximise their score.

It’s the perfect way to:

  • Bring colleagues together and break down internal silos.
  • Boost team morale and reinforce team spirit.
  • Enjoy a relaxed, yet stimulating, day away from the workplace.

A Qugato city challenge is more than a day out; it’s an impactful, lasting team bonding experience.

Leuke puzzels, interessante plekken waar je anders nooit komt. Vraagt wel veel van de batterij van je telefoon. Dus start met 100% batterij

Leuk dat het niet de standaard toeristische bezienswaardigheden zijn en dat je zelfs als doorgewinterde Amsterdammer zo nog iets nieuws leert over je stad. Was soms ook nog best een beetje puzzelen.

Superleuk om zo de stad te ontdekken. Het leidt je door historie en geeft gelegenheid om een terrasje aan te doen.

Superleuke ervaring met Qugato in Amersfoort. De app werkt supermakkelijk. Mooie wandeling, en hele interessante stad! Ik was niet zo bekend in Amersfoort, het was erg informatief. Leuk voor een citytrip of gewoon een uitje met vrienden of collega's.

City Detective Tilburg
The puzzles were custom made for the city. Quite entertaining. I had lots of fun. Especially questions were you had to look around to, for example, numbers on different buildings. Not to complicated but still entertaining. The app is designed well. Compliments.

Je komt op plekken waar je normaal gesproken niet komt. Ook de feitjes bij de tourpunten vonden we erg leuk. Je leert echt de stad kennen. De quizvragen zorgde ervoor dat je meer omhoog keek in de stad! Grappig!

Yes, absolutely! Qugato city games are designed to be highly engaging and accessible to everyone, from fast-paced start-ups to large-scale corporations. The tasks are diverse, ensuring both highly creative and more analytical team members can contribute their strengths.
