Team building games for work

A good icebreaker is short, needs no setup and gets everyone talking. These games run in the browser, take about five minutes and need nothing installed, which matters on work laptops.

Host a room at the start of a meeting or at the end of the week, drop the link in your team chat, and you are playing a minute later.
