by•

A classic activity reimagined for remote teams. A brand new mixer by Thursday.

Act out a word given by the opposing team and make your own team guess it in 60s.

Don’t just break the ice, shatter it with Charades!

Hello hunters! 👋 I am excited to launch Charades - a new fun mixer by Thursday (https://thursday.social/). It is the classic social activity we all have played with our friends and family. We have reimagined it for remote teams. Charades is the perfect way to get rid of boredom instantly and reenergize your team. Don’t take my word for it. Try it out yourself with your team. Btw, just like with Thursday’s previous launches, we have built this public PH launch tracker to share our launch data (visitors, countries, browsers, etc.): https://thursday.social/charades... P.S. I’ll be here all day and will be happy to answer any questions.

Hello PH! Deepa here, founder of Thursday. 👋 Amongst various icebreakers and energizers, Charades is one that tops my list. As a remote team, it is one of the best ways to spend synchronous time. Try it with your team and let me know how it went!

@stefani_kovachevska Thanks, Stefani! A question... are you working remotely, and how often do you do social events with your team?
Stefani Kovachevska
@nishith_shah We are using the hybrid model, but we have a few of us working in different locations. We try to meet in person at least once per week, but we're kind of a new office search, so not a lot of in-person meetings lately.
