This corporate team building rally brings robot kits, a portable arena and a live host to Boston, where every crew builds a bot and battles for medals.
Engineering groups, product squads and mixed departments in Boston get the same promise here: nobody watches from the sidelines. The crew travels to your office, hotel or campus with every kit and prop, then turns an ordinary room into a robot arena for 90 to 120 minutes of building, strategy and loud competition. It stands apart from most team building activities for work because the outcome depends on how well a group plans together, not on who has robotics experience.
Inside the package
- Complete robot kits plus customization gear so every team can give its bot

Inside the package
- Complete robot kits plus customization gear so every team can give its bot a name, colors and a personality
- One host who runs the program from the opening icebreaker to the last arena whistle
- One facilitator for every 20 to 30 guests to coach builds and referee the games
- An icebreaker that sorts the room into teams of 6 to 8, with a wristband system for groups of 80 or more
- Challenge rounds that pay out munitions, battlements and upgrades for the rally
- Medals for the champions, with silver and bronze added for groups over 75
Two crews, one robot
Each team splits into a build crew and a challenge crew that work at the same time. The build crew assembles and customizes the robot from the kit with a facilitator close by, while the challenge crew races through classic team challenges. Every win is paid out in upgrades that get bolted onto the bot before it rolls into the arena, so people who never touch a screwdriver still shape the result. That split is why the format works as corporate team building: designers, engineers, sales leads and finance partners all carry part of the score.
The arena games
Once the bots are armed, referees run a gauntlet of head to head games. Cyborg Soccer rewards positioning over power, Mine Sweep punishes a single careless move, Future Joust is a lane duel where the first clean hit takes the round, and Capture the Flag asks a team to attack and defend at once. The surviving machines meet in Mechanized Melee, a finale where the last bot moving takes the crown and the medals.
Why technical teams in Massachusetts pick it
Groups that spend the week inside specs and sprint boards tend to enjoy a problem with a physical answer. No engineering background is required, since the kits come together quickly and the facilitators guide every step, yet the rally still rewards the habits strong teams rely on: dividing work, sharing information between crews and adjusting the plan when an opponent changes tactics. Leaders get a clear read on communication and collaboration without a slide deck, which makes it a natural fit for a company offsite, a team building retreat or a quarterly planning day.
Indoor or outdoor, the arena adapts
Ballrooms, offices, cafeterias, conference centers and courtyards all work, so the program fits a downtown hotel meeting, a suburban campus or a summer gathering on a lawn anywhere in New England. Plan for a flat, clear area with room for team tables plus the arena. Setup and teardown are handled by the traveling crew, and the activity level stays low, so it suits mixed ages and abilities and doubles as one of the easier office team building activities to host.
Group size and timing
This listing covers 15 to 1,000 guests. Teams are capped at 8 people and more facilitators join as the guest count grows, which keeps every person busy and makes the team bonding stick. The rally slots neatly after a morning of sessions, ahead of a dinner, or as the centerpiece of an all hands afternoon, and the challenge lineup can lean toward themes like communication or change management when the agenda calls for it.
Planning and booking
Pricing on this listing is transparent, so totals show before checkout, and each request is confirmed directly by the provider, a crew that has refined its programs across thousands of teams since 2011. Check availability for your Boston date, share the headcount and the space you have in mind, and the plan for arena layout, challenge rounds and medal count is built around your group. For weekday events, four to six weeks of lead time is comfortable. Browse the verified details above for everything included, or compare other team building games for work while you plan.
