Pasqal needed a custom virtual space to host “The Blaise Pascal Quantum Challenge” for two months, while recreating (and improving) the feel of an in-person hackathon by centralizing ceremonies/pitches, webinars/masterclasses, and teamwork in one WorkAdventure world.

Pasqal hosted learning sessions in a central conference room. Participants simply entered with their avatars and were automatically transported into the video meeting, so you can run a webinar without constantly creating and sharing meeting links.

Yes Pasqal wanted a strong visual identity, and the map was designed with Pasqal colors, a 3D logo, community info points, and even custom elements like arcade machines and a quantum computer placed at the center of the world.

In this case study, the hackathon included 7 webinars/masterclasses, generated 1,000+ spontaneous interactions, and reached 70+ simultaneous users highlighting how WorkAdventure supports both structured sessions and natural hallway-style conversations.

Pasqal used a customized WorkAdventure map combining a conference room/auditorium, team workspaces, and social areas (including fun zones), so participants could learn, meet, and build without jumping between separate tools or “rooms.”

Each team had a dedicated workspace and used proximity chat + meeting rooms for spontaneous discussions and clean video calls, including screen sharing and recording. Participants also had centralized access to project tools like Google Drive and GitHub, making teamwork faster and more practical.

If you use WorkAdventure with the freemium plan, you cannot exceed 15 simultaneously connected users in your virtual space(s).

If you upgrade to the premium plans, there is NO limit of simultaneously users. You just need to define the capacity of users you would need in your virtual space(s) and subscribe to the best plan.

WorkAdventure has already organized talks with 500+ simultaneously connected users in a conference room. We also already organized events with 10,000+ users over few days.

When you create your virtual space in WorkAdventure, you get a map URL link to invite other users.

If you have the freemium plan, your map is public. This means you have only one map URL link to send to other users. All users who have the link of your map will have access to your virtual space at every moment.

If you have the premium plan, your map can be either public or private. Having a private map means you can send a dedicated URL link to each user to access your virtual space.

A WOKA is the name given to avatars in WorkAdventure.

If you want to create your own map from scratch, you can easily follow the documentation available in our website. Follow the Starter Kit, download Tiled to design your map and get yourself a web server (free options available) to self-host it.

If you are facing any kind of issue, check our videos' tutorials or contact us.

Creating your own map might require some design skill and patience. There is no code needed, so everyone can create a map.

Yes! You can transform your next online event into an immersive experience that attendees would not forget thanks to WorkAdventure.

Whether you gather 10, 100 or 1 000 attendees, WorkAdventure is made for all kind of online events (webinars, workshops, conferences, fairs, onboardings, social meet ups...) and with unlimited number of users.

Import or export users:
It is possible to import your attendees' list in your WorkAdventure back office, just like you'll be able to export it. Don't forget to do it before the event starts, as it will be helpful to send the kickoff email to everyone and custom tokens to make sure attendees have access to your virtual event!

Invite your attendees to join the event:
The best way of onboarding your attendees is to make a good communication and to take the time to explain how your virtual event will be organized (why not adding also a 'Help desk' at the entrance of your map? You still have the time). To do so, use our template and add the link of your virtual event or feel free to use one of yours. You can also send an Auto Login Token which is a personalized link for easier access.

WorkAdventure is GDPR compliant and we do not store any kind of data.

That is why you will not be able to get statistics from your event. However, the only Data we can provide is how many users were connected in your virtual space(s) during your event.

You can get the detailed list of connected users in your virtual space if your subscribe to one of our premium plans.

You can send global messages to a part of or to all your audience in your virtual space(s) if you subscribe to one of our premium plans. Global messages include text and audio messages. You can also decide to use the megaphone to instantly talk to your audience.

You can easily exchange contact details with other attendees using business cards (accessible only in premium plans).

You can add all your information directly from the menu button on the platform. See contact details from other users by clicking on their name and then "business cards".

WorkAdventure is different from classic video-conferencing platforms and might surprise your attendees! We advice you to send a general communication beforehand with a short "First Steps in WorkAdventure" tutorial.

It is very common that attendees enter your map at the same time. We recommend creating silent zone at the entrance of your map so that attendees do not connect with several people at the same time. Read more about silent zones here.

Near the entrance, we also recommend adding a Help Desk with a PDF or website that explains the agenda of your event. You can also add a short "First Steps in WorkAdventure" document in case people are facing some issues.

You can decide to have a private or public map for your online event:

1. If your map is private, each attendee will have his custom URL (it looks like: https://play.workadventu.re/register/%5Btoken%5D). Send the invitation email from your dashboard after having imported all attendees' email addresses.

2. If your map is public, you can also send the invitation email from your dashboard to all your attendees. However, keep in mind that your public link (it looks like: https://play.workadventu.re/@/%5Borganization%5D/%5Bworld%5D/%5Broom%5D) can be used by anyone at any time. For that matter, we strongly recommend to share the public link few minutes before your online event starts.

There are 3 ways of getting you the perfect map for your online event:

1. Pick up a ready-to-use template
We have made available several ready-to-use templates for hosting online events on our website. Select one that matches your needs from the sign up process and create an account to get access to your map and dashboard.

2. Create your online event map from scratch
WorkAdventure is 100% customizable. Check out the full documentation, follow the Starter Kit and use Tiled to create your map by yourself. You can decide whether to self-host your map as WorkAdventure is open source, or to sign in and enjoy our premium features.

3. Plan your project with one of our map designers
The WorkAdventure team is made up of a bunch of skilled designers. Whether you want a custom map created from scratch, or just some adjustments to a ready-to-use template, contact our team at: [email protected], or visit us directly in our virtual offices.

If you choose the freemium plan, you cannot exceed 15 simultaneous users.

If you choose a premium plan, technically you can safely plan to have +1000 attendees on a single map. Be aware that you will have to design or pick up a map big enough to welcome all your users.
The largest event up to date was the remote "Chaos Computer Club" event, that was organized on a modified version of WorkAdventure to create "parallel universes" on the fly. It welcomed +10000 attendees!

If you are an event organizer, do not forget there is a difference between the total number of attendees and the number of simultaneous users connecting.

The freemium plan allows you to have 15 simultaneous users in your map. All users over the limit will have a denied access to your virtual space.

If you need more capacity, upgrade to one of our paid plans.

You can get a free account for your non-commercial open source project if you match these criterias:

The self-hosted version of WorkAdventure is distributed under the AGPL v3 license modified by the Commons Clause. It means the source code is available (on Github).

Because it is based on the AGPL license, you can freely:

• Use the software as you wish
• Change the software as you wish

If you redistribute the software or put a modified version of the software online: you must make the source code of the modified software available though. So any changes you make must be shared with the community.

Because the AGPL license is modified by the Commons Clause, there is one thing you cannot do: you are not allowed to sell a version of WorkAdventure online as a service (as a SAAS software).

You can:

• Install the software in your company
• Sell services for installing the software for other companies

You cannot:

• offer online subscriptions to a WorkAdventure server you are putting online.

The WorkAdventure team is the sole entity allowed to sell subscriptions to the solution online.

Because of the Commons clause, the license of WorkAdventure is not considered OSI compliant. Still, the source code is available and you retain most of the advantages of a classical open-source license.

The commons clause (or other similar restrictions) is used by other projects (like Neo4J or Redis). We use it to avoid cloud providers to take advantage of the work performed on WorkAdventure, by selling subscriptions to the product themselves.

At WorkAdventure, we believe in the ideal of Open Source software. Our goal is to keep WorkAdventure as open as possible and to grow a vibrant community!

The self-hosted version contains the platform and everything you need to display maps, speak to users, etc...

The online version of WorkAdventure is the same as the self-hosted version but additionally it is connected to an administration panel to manage members, roles, restrictions, and perform moderation.

You can connect to WorkAdventure, move your character, but when you get close to another user, you cannot speak with him/her? Or you cannot speak or hear people in a Jitsi room?

All these problems can occur when we cannot establish a video / audio connection. In technical jargon, we call those "WebRTC" connections. WebRTC connections can fail due to a wide number of issues but most of the time, this is due to a network that is too restricted because of firewalls or other protections installed by the network administrator.

Direct your network administrator to the Preparing your network page to help him adapt the settings of the network to WorkAdventure.

Jitsi Meet is a video-conferencing app used in WorkAdventure to organize conferences and big meetings. Youtube live is the easiest way to livestream but we also can configure live streams through other platforms.

Read more about Youtube livestream integration.

• 1. Go to creator studio in Youtube,
• 2. Go to the Live Streaming section of your creator studio,
• 3. If this is the first time your are live streaming with this account, and only then, you will be asked to validate your account,
• 4. There are two ways you can set up streaming in YouTube and use youtube studio moderator,
• 5. This is the last piece on YouTube. Scroll to the bottom of the page, to the “Encoder Setup”. You should see a “Stream Name/Key” field there that is obfuscated by default.

More details on this article: https://jitsi.org/blog/live-streaming-with-jitsi-and-youtube.

If your company firewall is configured to block outgoing video calls (in particular outgoing UDP traffic), you will have to ask your network administrator to modify the configuration to allow WorkAdventure streams through.

The firewall configuration is detailed in the "preparing your network" article.

Because of the nature of the server infrastructure of virtual private network (VPN), WorkAdventure is unable to properly function on some kinds of VPNs, campus networks, or corporate networks. If you're in such a situation, you can try:

• disabling your VPN,
• asking your network administrator to unblock WorkAdventure,
• contact us and talk with our network expert.

To unblock WorkAdventure on a personal or corporate firewall, please read the "preparing your network" article.

We make our best effort to keep WorkAdventure requirements as low as possible. WorkAdventure will run on any computer or phone that can start a modern browser (Chrome 108+, Firefox 105+, Safari 14.5+).

Minimum hardware requirements: a single 1.5 GHz processor, 2 GB RAM, a 64MB video card that supports 1028 x 768 screen resolution, and 100MB of available disk space. Recommended hardware configuration: one or preferably multiple 2.0 GHz dual-core processors or faster, 8 GB RAM or more, and a 256MB video card that supports 1280 x 1024 or a much higher screen resolution. Memory requirement might be higher for very large maps.

Most importantly, WorkAdventure is about bringing people together. We recommend owning a webcam and microphone to have the most pleasant experience.

One of our main goals at WorkAdventure is to make your virtual space the most customizable possible. We want you, as an individual or a company, to be able to entirely get to grips with WorkAdventure.

White label is available and means you can customize your toggle menu, add your own logos, choose your own color, use your own domain name, customize your meta tags, the favicons, your name... Make it yours!

If you are facing any kind of issue, check our videos' tutorials or contact us.

If you use WorkAdventure with the freemium plan, you cannot exceed 15 simultaneously connected users in your virtual space(s).
If you upgrade to the premium plans, there is NO limit of simultaneously users. You just need to define the capacity of users you would need in your virtual space(s) and subscribe to the best plan.
WorkAdventure has already organized talks with 500+ simultaneously connected users in a conference room. We have also already organized events with 10,000+ users over few days.

When you create your virtual space in WorkAdventure, you get a map URL link to invite other users.

If you have the freemium plan, your map is public. This means you have only one map URL link to send to other users. All users who have the link of your map will have access to your virtual space at every moment.

If you have the premium plan, your map can be either public or private. Having a private map means you can send a dedicated URL link to each user to access your virtual space.

The University of Rennes moved away from Gather mainly because it needed stronger GDPR alignment, a French/local solution, and education-focused features (teaching, assessment, and learning tools) to build and run a full digital campus.

In this case study, the University of Rennes explicitly chose WorkAdventure because it matched their GDPR expectations and because it’s positioned as a French / European solution—a key point for academic projects handling student data.

WorkAdventure lets universities run interactive open house events where visitors explore a realistic campus map, meet staff, and keep the “in-person” feel through spontaneous interactions in the virtual world—helpful for students who can’t travel.

The University of Rennes worked with WorkAdventure to design a faithful map of physical buildings and classrooms, so future students could explore the campus layout online and get familiar before arriving in person.

In this story, gamified learning means turning assignments into in-map activities where students feel “inside the task.” The University of Rennes used WorkAdventure to set up escape game learning events across multiple subjects, faster than doing it in physical spaces.

The University of Rennes used WorkAdventure’s AI-powered bots in two ways: (1) answering and guiding visitors during open house events, and (2) supporting learning by helping correct assignments and giving feedback inside virtual classrooms.

In this deployment, the University of Rennes reported 450 simultaneous users, across 70 maps, 210 projects, and 500+ connections, showing WorkAdventure can scale to large campus experiences.

In the Univaq project, content for learning nodes can be supported by generative AI, and students can request feedback from AI-powered bots during the path. After completing all assigned rooms, learners can receive a badge or certificate as a reward.

PolyGloT is Univaq’s research project designed to build personalized learning paths made of ordered activities. Univaq chose WorkAdventure as the virtual classroom interface because it can emulate a physical classroom online, enable real-time interaction, and connect to PolyGloT through APIs to run those learning paths inside a 2D world.

In the Univaq setup, each learning step (node) is mapped to a specific room in WorkAdventure. Students progress through the map by completing the activity in each room—making the path visual, structured, and game-like.

Univaq’s PolyGloT paths can include activities such as recorded lectures, quizzes, writing exercises, brainstorming sessions, true/false tests, reading tasks, and coding activities—each placed in a dedicated WorkAdventure room.

A key goal of PolyGloT is to centralize tools and content to help students stay focused. WorkAdventure provides the single “place” where those resources (videos, quizzes, coding tasks, etc.) are accessed as the learner moves through the path.

Yes. In this flow, teachers can monitor execution status of learning activities, while students can follow their progress and see the points earned per task as they move through the learning path.
