Best for a virtual office where you walk up to talk
WorkAdventure is a map-based virtual office where avatars start video chats by walking up to each other. The free plan allows 10 people at once and public rooms only, and recording, analytics and SSO sit on paid plans from $9 a user a month. It runs in a browser only.
Who WorkAdventure is for
- Fits if you want a pixel-style office map for a remote team
- Works for events where you pay by the day for the number of people
Who WorkAdventure is not for
- Tight if you stay free, with 10 people at once and public rooms
- Skip it if you want desktop or phone apps, as it runs in a browser only
- Watch out: recording, streaming, analytics, SSO and white label are not in the free plan
- Pricey if you want a permanent office, at $9 a user billed monthly
- Watch out: the page showed euro prices from India, and the dollar figures come from the data it loads

Keep WorkAdventure, or make your own?
Keep it
To replace WorkAdventure you would be making chat that a whole team counts on staying up. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 47 of the 75 other team communication apps grade higher. It costs $108 a year.
What you could not
- Chat that a whole team counts on staying up.
- Video calls.
- Audio cleaned up live as you speak.
- It is priced for each person, which means accounts and billing for a team.
- It plugs into other products, Microsoft Teams, Outlook and Google Calendar among them.
- AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
- What a company asks for before it lets staff use something: single sign-on.
What this rests on. WorkAdventure’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
What is WorkAdventure?
WorkAdventure is a browser-based 2D virtual office and event space. People move an avatar around a map and a video, audio and text conversation opens automatically when they stand near each other. Teams use it as an always-open office, for events and for classrooms; the core is published on GitHub for self-hosting.
Worth knowing
- The free plan caps simultaneous users at 10, and anyone joining past the cap is refused.
- Recording, live streaming, analytics, SSO and white label are not on the free plan.
- Runs in a web browser only; no desktop or mobile apps are listed on the pricing or home pages.
- The page showed euro prices (from 8 EUR a month per user) when read from India; the dollar figures come from the price data the page loads.
Key features
- Proximity video chat
- Walk an avatar next to someone to start an audio and video conversation without scheduling a call. Screen sharing, status and direct messages are on the free plan.
- Speaker zones
- Marked areas of the map where only the speaker is seen and heard, for talks and lectures. Attendees can raise a hand to be given the floor.
- Map editor and templates
- Build the space from map templates or edit zones, desks and rooms yourself. Personalized avatars and white label branding need a paid plan.
- AI bots
- Configure bots for dialogs, map guides, questions and answers, meeting summaries or translation. The free plan allows one bot; paid plans are usage based after a free tier.
- Calendar and meeting integrations
- Paid plans link Microsoft Teams, Outlook, Google Calendar and Google Meet so a meeting room can open a call in those tools.
- Access control
- Block, ban or kick users on every plan. Email allow-lists, roles and SSO-protected access are on the paid plans.
