Old School Mega Games

Good Old-Fashioned Fun

No screens. No apps. No charging cables.

Just a curious collection of games, a little friendly competition and the sudden discovery that Grandma may be far more ruthless than anyone expected.

Cirque Um Navigate’s Old-School Games bring together familiar favourites, giant versions of classic games and peculiar pastimes gathered from the low-tech gaming world of years gone by.

Games for Every Generation

Our collection is designed to bring people together.

Children discover games they may never have encountered before. Adults rediscover things they haven’t played in years. Different generations can compete, cooperate and offer one another confidently incorrect advice.

Depending on the event, guests might encounter:

Giant stacking and balancing games
Oversized dominoes
Traditional skill challenges
Tabletop games
Team activities
Curious games from Victorian streets and parlours
Several objects whose purpose becomes clear only after our Game Leader intervenes

The games are quick to understand, easy to join and difficult to pass without having a turn.

Play at Your Own Pace

Old-School Games work beautifully as a free-flowing installation.

Guests can arrive, choose a game and play for as long as they like before moving on to something else. There is no need for everyone to begin at the same time, making the experience ideal alongside other entertainment.

For a more structured occasion, our Game Leader can introduce challenges, organise friendly competitions and help turn a collection of individuals into enthusiastic rivals.

Perfect For

Festivals and agricultural shows
Family fun days
Weddings and garden parties
Vacation care and OOSH
Corporate team building
Clubs and holiday programs
Council and community events
Indoor or outdoor celebrations

The games can stand alone or be combined with circus activities, roving entertainment, workshops and other Cirque Um Navigate experiences.

Gaming Without the Technology

Old-School Games encourage conversation, movement, coordination and shared play without placing another screen between participants.

They can be competitive or cooperative, energetic or quietly strategic. Most importantly, people can understand what is happening simply by watching—and then join in.

No account required.

No password forgotten.

No software update at the crucial moment.
