About the Game:​
 

Can your team pitch a tent… blindfolded?

Basecamp: Blind Ascent is a leadership and communication masterclass disguised as a wild corporate challenge. One vocal leader. A blindfolded team. A tent to pitch. Zero visual cues.
 

This high-intensity experience forces participants to lean into trust, verbal clarity, and team coordination under pressure. Bonus curveball? A surprise “Snowstorm Challenge” that pushes teams to secure the tent — fast and blindfolded.
 

Perfect for companies looking to enhance real-world team dynamics, this game is built to simulate pressure, develop leaders, and break silos. It’s strategy, empathy, execution — all packed into one unforgettable experience.
