Team Building Event EFC AG
The weather was on our side, bringing sunshine and good spirits throughout the afternoon.
As a CityHunters team guide, I led a Murder Mystery Geocaching event for EFC AG in Mannheim on April 30, 2024 at 3:00 PM. Fourteen participants met at the agreed starting point at Dalbergplatz, where I welcomed them and gave a brief introduction to the basic rules. After a short round of introductions we split the group into two teams — excitement and anticipation were immediate.
On our Murder Mystery Scavenger Hunt the colleagues became investigators: equipped with tablets and our app, they set off to hunt for clues across the city. The technology guided the teams to various crime scenes where puzzles, hints and team tasks awaited. The team building experience in Mannheim became vivid and interactive.
During the tour the teams were on their own and competed in a friendly contest for the most points. Points were awarded for correctly solved puzzles and successfully completed tasks — from logically tricky to creatively demanding. I was reachable by phone throughout the game to support with questions, without intervening in the gameplay.
The route took the teams past well-known spots: an exciting case awaited in front of Mannheim Palace, and further tasks led the investigators to locations near the Kunsthalle Mannheim and the National Theatre Mannheim. The city was discovered in a new way — landmarks turned into scenes, and solving challenges together promoted exchange and cohesion.
After exactly three hours we met back at Dalbergplatz for the award ceremony. The atmosphere was enthusiastic, with anecdotes about clever solutions and small mishaps being shared. The winning team was Citysharkzzz — with 0 points on the scoreboard, which produced plenty of laughs and a relaxed mood.
This event once again showed how much fun and value a shared experience can bring: a team building experience in Mannheim that combined adventure, puzzle fun and collaboration. If you would like to send your team on an exciting discovery tour as well, we look forward to accompanying you at your next team building event in Mannheim.
