Skills and Behaviours Tested: Communication skills, attention to detail, problem solving, teamwork, collaboration, time management and leadership skills.
Group Size: Ideally, you’ll have 2 teams with a minimum of 2 participants in each, with each team assigned to a different breakout room. However, the game can be run with smaller groups, with all participants working together in 1 team competing against the clock.
Useful For: Staff at all levels.
You'll Need: • The Activity Link in Trainers’ Library and your Activity Link PIN from the My Account section of the member homepage. • A prize for the winning team.
Notes: In the exercise, teams are given a series of riddles, puzzles and questions to solve, to help them discover where Jill Fruggle hid her mother’s prize brooch. The riddles and puzzles have been deliberately designed to draw upon different skills. They include riddles and cryptic clues, mathematical questions, word questions, and general knowledge questions. Some require close attention to detail. This exercise can also be used to examine the role of leaders within teams. If you wish to use the exercise in this way, you might want to pre-assign the role of leader to someone from each team.
Remote/Virtual Delivery: Remote Delivery requires a system that as an absolute minimum provides the following functionality: • Face-to-face discussion. • Share screen. • Chat. • Share files. In addition, we strongly recommend using a system that provides for: • Breakout Rooms (required if more than one team).

I used Jill Fruggle's Treasure as part of a team building session yesterday. It went like a dream and the group really got into and said how much they enjoyed it. The technology was brilliant and it really helped the team to bond, and we had some conversations afterwards about effective team work and communication.
Thank you for designing it.

I used this exercise today with a mixed group of managers and it went down really well. I did find it needed more time in the feedback part as lots were being shared and good best practices too.
I would use this exercise again as it was so productive and really got the participants engaged and learning off each other.
