In nine Google offices worldwide, Google has these escape room games named Escape the Office where "Volunteers turn everyday office items into puzzle challenges, giving Googlers a fun way to meet new teammates and collaborate in unexpected ways," Google wrote on X.
Here is what Google posted:
As creator Minh T. Nguyen says, “Googlers get to discover colleagues they haven't met yet while unlocking a stronger understanding of the people they work with every day.”Before the in-office version existed, it started as a virtual escape room—created during remote work, when Googlers were eager for ways to stay engaged with one another. “Googlers were hungry for connection… and they continued to be,” Minh recalls.
For global admin Laurentiu Grigorescu, watching teams come together remains the best part: “The chance to help keep Google’s culture of connection and creativity alive is the greatest reward of all.”
Sometimes the best part of work is stepping away from your desk… and figuring out something new together.
