What our clients say

SNCF

I can only comment on the organisation, as I didn't take part myself. On that front, excellent dealings with your team: great rapport, dynamic and responsive. As for the activity, going by my colleagues' feedback: a top experience, hugely appreciated.

We called on Arcane for our annual offsite on the theme of living and working well together. We wanted a playful session to bring our team together and shift the habits of our management team. A big thank you to Arcane for recommending this activity, which went down brilliantly!

2024 was our chance to take stock of our employees' working conditions, and the semi-customisable format won us over! It was hilarious to see one of our directors turned into a suitor for Bowser. The session really broke down professional barriers and brought everyone closer!

Great fun, people got closer, and the difficulty level suited everyone.
