Pharaoh’s Tabletop Secret
Watch an ancient monument rise from your table, then unlock its secrets.
About
Pharaoh’s Tabletop Secret brings a little magic to your next team event or company dinner. It is a fun, table-based game that uses augmented reality to create a genuine wow moment.
As teams look through a tablet or smartphone, an ancient Egyptian monument appears to rise from the middle of their table. The 3D model sits over the real world and can be explored from every angle.
Teammates combine their skills to crack an ancient riddle, working through pop-up touch screen features, sliding stones and coded hieroglyphics in stunning high-definition graphics.
Because it all happens at the table, it slots easily into a dinner, a conference break or an evening reception. It is a simple setup with a big wow factor, and the friendly race between tables keeps the energy high.
Learning outcomes
The intriguing theme and fantastical format draw everyone in, even people who would never call themselves gamers.
To solve the puzzles, teams have to listen actively, consider every opinion and make decisions quickly with limited time. Everyone has to agree before a move is made, so communication matters.
While socializing and having fun, participants discover each other's talents. One person spots a pattern in the hieroglyphics, another keeps track of the clues, and the whole table celebrates each breakthrough.
The light-hearted competition between tables builds involvement and a relaxed atmosphere where coworkers can form new connections, making it a perfect icebreaker for groups who are still getting to know each other. Tables often keep talking about the puzzle long after the winner is announced.
