Everyone gets to play the same activity together!

Finding the perfect activity for a group isn't always easy. You want something that everyone can enjoy, whether you're celebrating a birthday, organising a stag or hen party, planning a family day out, or simply looking for a memorable experience with friends. Traditional activities feel repetitive, leaving people wishing they had chosen something more exciting.

That's where The Archertype comes in. Offering two unforgettable experiences: Combat Archery and Outplayed the Gameshow. We do the best Group Games in Manchester. Whether your group loves action packed adventures or prefers competitive brain teasers, We curate experiences designed to bring everyone together!

combat archery

Dodgeball meets archery, our flagship activity!

Everyone stays involved throughout the game. One moment you're taking cover. The next you're making a daring run across the arena or landing the winning shot.

Every game feels different because players create new strategies each round! Nothing beats the thrill of a bullseye or a matrix-like dodge!

Outplayed the Gameshow

Have you ever watched a television gameshow and wanted to take part? Now you can!

Outplayed the Gameshow balances knowledge, teamwork and quick thinking while adding energetic challenges that keep everyone involved.

It's particularly popular because success isn't based solely on strength or fitness. Every participant has opportunities to shine!

  • "We went as a family to celebrate our 3 18 year olds. Brilliant experience, well organised and Vince and Franklin made us feel so welcome. They altered some of the mini games to fit our group dynamic and we really appreciated the care and attention. Great evening, 100% recommend! "
