VIRTUAL PARTIES
VIRTUAL PARTIES FOR ONLINE FUN WITH FRIENDS, COWORKERS AND FAMILY
WE’VE TEAMED UP WITH FUNLAB
We have partnered with a game company in Australia to offer three virtual party games: Game Show, Trivia Night and the Funlympics. We searched far and wide to find games that would meet our high standards and this company was the winner. If you book one of these games you will be met by an Australian Game Operator not someone from our local team – but other than the accent, you wouldn’t know the difference!
Three new games but with the same great customer service and the ability to pay in Canadian dollars.
VIRTUAL PARTIES – HOW DOES IT WORK?
Just like you would expect from any party, virtual parties are intended to fun, social and stress-free. If your team is looking for challenging games, you should check out the virtual mysteries page instead.
FULLY HOSTED VIRTUAL PARTIES
Like our ‘real-life’ games and virtual mystery games, virtual parties include a Game Operator to run the game for you and players compete for the top score (often in teams, it depends on the party game you choose). Unlike, all of our other Vancouver Mysteries games the Game Operator is interacting with you the entire time. (Bonus! Your Game Operator is going to have an Australian accent. If this sounds mysterious, scroll up to the top of this page and start again.)
The Game Operators are like “Game Show Hosts” – they greet you when you arrive, introduce the game, moderate and keep score.
YES, THEY ARE ZOOM PARTIES
Each of these virtual party games use Zoom in a fun and innovative way!
EASY ONLINE BOOKING
Book your game online and then watch your email for an invitation you can share with your group (including a link to the Zoom room where you will meet your Game Operator).
PLAYERS CAN BE ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD
Location: Your players can each be at a different location, or you can gather as a groups at a computer, or a combination of both. For example, if you are all working from home, each player might join the game separately from their home office. Or, if you are meeting up with friends or family, each household will join from one computer. Any combination will work! For example, a family of four can play a virtual game with grandparents and an auntie who are at three different locations.
You can invite people to join you from anywhere as long as they have an internet connection and a computer.
Duration: 60 minutes. You can also bundle games together for extended party time. Book 2 games (one hour apart) or contact us for help.
Capacity: No group size is too big or too small – we have a virtual game right for you! Prices start at $400 + GST for up to 20 players (visit our pricing page for more information). We can also accommodate 1000+ players. Call us and we will be your personal virtual game concierge: 778-707-1962.
Availability: Play online 11AM – 11PM, 7 days a week.
Technology: Each location will need a computer (desktop/laptop), a stable internet connection and Zoom (the downloaded version for best results). Each player will also need access to a smart phone to play Trivia Night and Gameshow. Players should also have a note pad and paper on hand (and possibly some beverages!?).
