About

Countdown to Christmas is a fun team building quiz featuring locals from different parts of the world giving authentic festive greetings and fascinating facts about local festive celebrations. This tech-based activity can be played either via our bespoke designed app or via browser. Just like an advent calendar, players are presented with a wintery scene with hidden doors. Players open the doors on the advent calendar each one revealing a video from different parts of the globe. The video host gives interesting cultural facts on end-of-year celebrations in their part of the world. Players use this information to answer challenges that are timed, requiring rapid response, putting listening and interpretation skills to the test.
