The Mole • Back to Menu

Imagine a team-building event where suspense and anticipation hold you rapt and absorbed from beginning to end. You will be part of a team of covert investigators, unravelling a case hampered by red herrings and dead ends. Riddles and puzzles, questions and realisations weave through the event.

Your whole team will become completely absorbed in an intriguing spy game. Everyone will be set a ‘top secret’ mission to complete activities that have been designed specifically for you.

Each team will face a series of hi tech challenges (options listed below). Each time a team is successful, they will earn a clue, which they must use to eliminate innocent suspects to eventually be left with the guilty party – who must be the Mole!

Your team will become united as they face the challenges together. Your enjoyment and laughter will last much longer than the day itself as memories are re-lived back in your place of work.

Individuals will listen, trust and learn to appreciate each other as they rely on everyone’s skills to complete the tasks at hand.

As things slowly start to make sense, pieces of the case fall into place, and excitement builds as teams gain ground against each other to solve the riddle. A frantic ‘head to head’ race between the teams to unravel the mystery and submit their deduction as to who is The Mole will then ensue. The deductions are then read out to an enraptured audience.

Teams must work together on the event to maximise their chance of success. Because the event is fun participants will be relaxed and will naturally think more creatively. This will help them to find solutions to challenging tasks such as cracking an electronic safe and infiltrating a booby-trapped room using hi-tech CCTV equipment.

Without thinking about it your team will experiment with new methods of working because the environment is safe and non-threatening. Your focus will be on the themed tasks and challenges instead of individual performance. The result is that your team becomes more motivated and more united.

Sample activities
Crime Scene Forensics: Your team get a call over their radio from a frantic informant saying they have spotted the Mole. You rush to the scene of the crime only to find that the Mole has absconded. Your team is in a unique position to gather crucial forensic information. Using equipment used by forensic experts your team must gather and analyse a variety of clues from fingerprints to samples of soil and hair.

CCTV: In an attempt to hamper your efforts, the Mole has filled a room with harmful gases. Somewhere in this room is hidden information crucial to your investigation. The room is fitted with CCTV which enables some of your team to direct from outside as other team members, safely decked in facemasks and protective clothing enter the room to retrieve some surprising information.

Booby Trapped: The Mole has trapped your team. While the time ticks away you must deactivate the simulated live bomb before it’s too late. Not only is your team at risk, but also vital evidence is in danger of being destroyed. The members of your team are limited as to what moves they can make within the trap. Once free, they will have limited time to deactivate the ticking bomb. Your team must remain coolheaded and calm to succeed.

Photo-Fit: Teams have to create a likeness of the Mole. The descriptions that we have of the Mole are various and sometimes wild. We know that the Mole is a master of disguise. Your team must determine as accurate a likeness of the Mole as possible given the information that has been collected. Hi tech photographic equipment is at hand to enable you to create a realistic image.

Security Deposit Dilemma: The Mole thinks that information hidden in a safety deposit box is safe from your team. The Mole is wrong. Your team has persuaded the bank to give you private access to the safety deposit boxes. Your time is limited and your task is to work out which keys are for which boxes. Then you can access the Mole’s box. The number of attempts you make is limited to avoid arousing the suspicions of the bank staff.

Teams will ideally be made up of 6 to 10 players but smaller or larger numbers can be accommodated. The Mole team building activity can run for a half day or full day programme depending on numbers and client requirements.
