Upgaming Hosts Its First What? Where? When? Championship

There’s nothing like a bit of friendly competition to discover the trivia masters within the team. We recently hosted our very own "What? Where? When?" tournament, and let’s just say, things got intense (in the best way possible).

The Setup

We didn’t just pull some random questions off the internet. We went all out. We had 10 teams of 6 players each, exactly like the classic format, ready to face off. To make it feel official, we invited the legend himself, the actual host of the televised version, “Mister Presenter”, to lead the game.

Having that iconic voice in the room definitely added some pressure, but it also made every correct answer feel like a championship win.

Under Pressure

The room was filled with that specific kind of silence that only happens when 60 people are simultaneously trying to remember a random historical fact or solve a riddle in under 60 seconds. We saw some incredible teamwork, a few lucky guesses, and a lot of passionate debating.

It turns out, our team is just as good at solving complex puzzles as they are at building platforms. It’s shared experiences like these that shape Upgaming’s team culture and bring us even closer together.

To the Victors Go the Spoils

While every player walked away with a little something to remember the day, our winning team took home some special prizes to cement their status as the office's "Big Brains."

But honestly, the highlight wasn't just the prizes; it was seeing everyone from different departments teaming up, laughing, and collectively realizing that we might have a few secret geniuses among us.

We hope the second season of our intellectual competition will be even bigger, more exciting, and more memorable.
