Create Exceptional and Memorable Workshops with Game-based Learning

You can have the sharpest frameworks, years of experience and beautifully designed slides — and still watch your participants disengage the moment the workshop or training session turns theoretical.

This is the gap that game-based learning fills.

Strategy Is Meant to Be Experienced

In many organisations, strategy is presented as something to understand intellectually.

But in real life, strategy is shaped by:

• Choices
• Trade-offs
• Conversations
• Consequences

Game-based learning using our Big Timer game allows your participants to experience those dynamics in a safe, facilitated environment — without the risks of real-world mistakes.

For trainers and facilitators, this changes everything.

What Trainers Need Today

We are HRDC certified trainers. We speak from experience and we have friends who are trainers; many have decades of training experience. Trainers tell us the same things:

• “My participants are tired of chalk-and-talk and theories.”
• “They want to talk about their challenges and it has to be a two-way dialogue during training.”
• “They learn best when they can experience it for themselves.”

Game-based learning meets those needs by:

• Turning abstract concepts into tangible decisions
• Creating shared language through play (and having fun!)
• Encouraging reflection, conversations and insights — it’s active learning at its best!

Introducing the Big Timer™ Trainers’ Edition

We created the Big Timer™ Trainers’ Edition for trainers, facilitators and consultants who want to deliver training in a way that feels practical, engaging and relevant. Our game can be used as part of teambuilding sessions (incorporate it as part of your workshop) or it can be used to kickstart conversations about business challenges and entrepreneurial thinking among teams.

Big Timer™ is a game-based framework that helps teams explore strategic decision-making by focusing on three fundamental aspects of business:

• Customers
• Products
• Retail

When you use the Big Timer game to train your participants, you facilitate conversations about making choices in the context of business and understanding the consequences that comes with each choice.

The learning emerges naturally because it’s experienced, not instructed. We believe adult learners are capable of deriving their own insights by playing the game. Insights derived through personal realizations are remembered long after the workshop is over!

Only For Trainers Who Want to Differentiate Their Work

Being a trainer is common enough in Malaysia so equipping yourself with a tool and strategy helps you become more marketable as a trainer.

The Big Timer™ Trainers’ Edition is helps you gain an edge over your competitors by leveraging a tool – a game of cards created by us at Redbox Studio – to grow your training business.

The Big Timer game is a tool you can integrate into:

• Leadership programs
• Strategy workshops
• Team alignment or teambuiilding sessions

Use the Big Timer game to:

• Reduce reliance on slides
• Increase participation and energy in the room
• Differentiate yourself with a game-based experience
• Deliver strategy conversations that actually stick

Game-based learning isn’t a trend. It’s a response to how adults actually learn.

If you’d like to stand out today as an exceptional trainer, you need to design exceptional and memorable experiences for your participants.

You need to facilitate insights, not download information (which they can find easily using AI). Your role is to create an innovative and interactive space for teams to think, decide and reflect together.

Join Our Trainers’ Edition Workshop

We work with a small number of trainers as partners who want to integrate Big Timer™ into their workshops and programs. We welcome internal or in-house trainers too.
