What should the perfect Christmas company party be like?

Magical. Memorable. Beautiful. Fun.

If you agree, then our immersive game “The Nutcracker: In Search of Stolen Time” might be exactly what you’re looking for.

Before the event some of the challenges are adapted especially for your company. For example, we may ask you to send us photos of several employees. Using AI, we turn them into part of the game itself. This customisation is already included in the price. Participants also receive an unusual invitation to a Christmas carnival. It helps create a little intrigue before the party and, if you wish, we can also include a dress code. But dress code is completely optional.

The story begins. The game starts with one of our actors appearing as the Old Rat:

“So, you’re all having fun, celebrating, cracking nuts… and you haven’t even noticed that you’ve been robbed. He stole IT from you. The one thing nobody ever has enough of… Time”

How the game works

Our host divides your colleagues into teams and gives each team a route card showing the order in which they need to complete the challenges and which Mouse they should visit first. While the story is unfolding, our Mouse characters appear around the venue and take their places at different game stations. For every successfully completed challenge, teams earn minutes represented by glass marbles. Their goal is to collect enough minutes to fill a giant hourglass — the Vessel of Time.

What happens during the company Christmas party? Meet the Mices

  • The Ballet Master Mouse. The Nutcracker is one of the world’s most famous ballets, so naturally one of our mice is a choreographer. Teams receive funny and unexpected costume props and must use them to perform a particular scene — without saying a word.
  • The Scientist Mouse. Challenges teams with a logic puzzle that will help them unlock a mysterious chest.
  • The Athlete Mouse. Invites you to try your luck in a giant Mouse Maze.
  • The Artist Mouse. Is responsible for creative challenges where imagination matters more than knowledge.
  • The Storyteller Mouse. Tests how well you remember famous fairy tales and asks you to build unusual “formulas” for well-known fairy-tale characters.

Every 15 minutes, the guests hear the voice of the Mouse King — or the sound of his footsteps getting closer. The tension keeps building. Because if you don’t collect enough minutes before the Mouse King arrives, it may already be too late to face him.
