Chinwag helps in 3 key ways:
First up you've got to install Chinwag in Slack. Once that's done you'll create a dedicated channel for Chinwag. Anyone in that channel will be invited to participate in a game or challenge once a month.
Both games and challenges take place within Slack or at getchinwag.com.
Well, it really depends on the activity. The "get to know me as a person" challenges like Who's my human take 3 minutes per session. The games that need teamwork like Finding Fusilli take around 10 minutes per session.
Usually people play a few sessions a month. The activities are intentionally kept simple so they don't cause distraction - they just create good vibes.
Games are co-operative with 3 to 4 people in a group. Teamwork is the order of the day and teams that perform best win based on points 🏆.
Challenges usually involve the whole team. There are usually no points, but we hope that getting to know each other better will be reward enough ❤️
We are focused on building great games and challenges for teams of 16+ people. This is because we've found that's when communication starts to get difficult, and teamwork breaks down.
