Hey Product Hunt, We’re a tiny remote team from Toronto who previously built the VPN, TunnelBear. Today, we’re excited to share a project in an entirely new space. Throw is a social activity for remote teams that was born out of the desire to never attend another virtual happy hour. ❌ - As we scaled TunnelBear, our team became more distributed and getting people together in person only happened once every few months. We tried all the things to build remote culture: Donuts, ice breaker bots, virtual happy hours (ugh), random “Who’s baby photo is this” games at all hands and even a virtual escape room. These team building things all took time to coordinate, plan and host; but most of them got a “meh” reaction from the team. If we’re honest, remote team building has always felt a bit corny so we understand the response. We felt like we could build a social activity that worked better for startups. Something that was fun without that “required work fun” vibe. ✅ We’d like to introduce you to Throw, it’s a social event for remote teams that: - Has a growing collection of social games that take 5 minutes to play - Has a vibe that’s more “that was hilarious” and less “ugh, required work fun” - Has people play in small groups so nobody needs to host - Has built-in audio so you can talk as you play - Has calendar invites and quick join links that make it easy to plan - Has a free option where small teams can play for free (< 7 people) We’d love for you to give it a try with your team and let us know what you think!

I like the way you use games to bring remote teams together. We are also try to bring remote employees together, so I know how good Gamification can work in this area. Congrats to your launch guys and keep on going guys, we nee more solutions like yours and ours. The future is remote!!!

Had a chance to test some of these games and they were legit good times. If I had to pick a favourite it’d be Caption Chaos, where the group is presented with a random GenAI image and has to caption it, New Yorker style… best caption wins.
