Guided Games: Bringing people together through play



Guided Games creates professionally hosted, interactive game experiences for libraries, senior communities, community organizations, and other groups looking for fun, easy-to-join programming that brings people together.

The fun of pub-style games… without the pub.

From trivia and music bingo to Friendly Feud and other interactive games, each event is designed to encourage participation, conversation, laughter, and connection.

That’s where we come in.

HOW IT WORKS

We handle everything.

Great programming does more than fill your calendar. It gives people a reason to show up, a reason to participate, and a reason to come back.

Guided Games helps organizations create memorable experiences that strengthen engagement with the people they serve — without placing the burden of developing, preparing, and hosting the program on staff.

The return on a successful community program is measured in participation, engagement, connection, and repeat attendance.

  • Increase program attendance with familiar, approachable activities people understand and enjoy.
  • Encourage repeat participation by creating programs guests look forward to attending again.
  • Build social connection through games that naturally encourage conversation, teamwork, and friendly competition.
  • Reach different audiences with formats that can be tailored for adults, seniors, families, or multigenerational groups.
  • Create active participation instead of passive entertainment.
  • Reduce staff workload by providing a prepared program and professional host.

Maximize programming dollars by creating an experience that can engage many participants at once.

Easy for your staff.

Engaging for your patrons.

A lively, team-based trivia experience featuring a variety of topics and difficulty levels designed to keep everyone involved.

Familiar songs replace traditional bingo numbers, creating an easy-to-play game filled with music, memories, and plenty of opportunities to sing along.

Teams try to predict the most popular responses to fun survey-style questions in a fast-moving game built around teamwork, discussion, and laughter.

Games can also be adapted around themes, holidays, local history, special events, or the interests of your community.

People come for the game. What they often remember is the conversation, the laughter, the friendly competition, and the people they shared it with.

Guided Games turns programming into participation — and participation into connection.
