The purpose of a retrospective is to reflect on the process of the team’s collaboration, rather than on the content of work itself. This opening icebreaker helps participants to get in a reflective mood and share their thoughts and feelings.

2 players improvise a scene, and make distinct strong physical and vocal choices.

Then the roles are reversed, and each player plays the other's character, in the same scene, same location.

ALIGNED is a fast party game about reading each other's minds. Everyone answers a prompt on their phone and the big screen reveals how aligned — or how far apart — the team really is. Short rounds and a lot of honest talking make it a quick, high-energy way to open a session or surface how well a group actually knows itself.

Energize your group with a fun series of physical poses and movements.

Participants attempt to count to 20, saying the numbers in a random order without repeating any.

Die Teilnehmer sollen auf Kommando Dinge berühren, die vorgegebene Anforderungen erfüllen, z. B. „Berühre etwas Blaues”, „Berühre etwas aus Holz”, „Berühre deine Zehen”. Die Komplexität kann schrittweise erhöht werden, z. B. „Berühre etwas, das dich zum Lachen bringt” oder „Berühre etwas, das dich inspiriert”.
