During this game you take on the role of a Polar Bear preparing for hibernation. Winter is coming, and you have a limited amount of time to create the largest possible stockpile of fish to survive the cold season.

To catch fish, you must dive through the last remaining holes in the ice, hold your breath, and swim to fishing points to collect as much as you can before resurfacing back through the ice holes.

Your job is to gather fish, store them in the fish bank, and make it back to your igloo before winter begins and the fishing season ends. Get ready for five totally unique, brain-twisting, heart-pumping adventures in our 2026 Series.

These events are one-of-a-kind, combining mental strategy and physical challenge in a way you won’t find anywhere else — every race blends running, orienteering, and board-game logic with its own wild rule set, so no two events ever feel the same.

They are the perfect motivation to keep training through the cold January–March months or to stay committed to that New Year’s resolution to move more, socialise more, and enjoy your exercise even more.

Enter any event as a one-off, or take on all five to climb the Series leaderboard and unlock the multi-event discount. Race solo or in pairs, explore new and safe areas of London Zone 1, use our secure bag drop, and finish every event with the all-important pub debrief and social. If you are looking for something unique — smart, fast, and fun — this is your series. Let the MindGames begin.

About our new club, MindGames

Imagine a life-sized board game where rolling the dice means running to a checkpoint, and your next move relies on your effort and navigation skills. It’s fast, strategic, and designed for groups and individuals who want to test themselves and celebrate together.

We’re excited to launch a brand-new series of events where each game challenges both your brain and your body.

Think of it as a dynamic mix of escape-room problem solving, scavenger-hunt exploration, and fast-paced racing at your best speed.

  • Routes, maps and checkpoints are navigated using your phone.

  • Game mechanics add strategy and teamwork.

  • Running and racing provide the thrill of the chase.

  • The post-race pub debrief keeps the experience social and fun.
