I think you have zero-ed in on the right problem.
In our remote team we have tried a number of these team-building games / airbnb experiences, but tbh:
1. I did not feel like I knew my teammates better after the experience, and
2. it wasn't that fun
The most fun I had was actually playing Among Us with the team. But even that game has a couple of issues that makes it no 100% suited for team building.
My guess is you'll probably have to continue experimenting with games. I'm not sure if all in-person games will translate well to zoom, but some will do better than others. You def want people to be engaged, work together and change teams often.
It's also always great to hear that your games are helping someone – e.g. actors that are out of work.
Good luck! I'll be keeping an eye on your website and I'm already thinking of recommending it as an option for the next time we do a team building activity.
