Soon you might be able to compete in games against friends and colleagues and even the office next door on LinkedIn. The Microsoft-owned company is reportedly planning to add a new game experience to the platform.According to TechCrunch, the experience is designed to tap into the same popularity of games like Wordle. Players’ scores will be sorted by their workplace and ranked, allowing you to take on another office or even across the country.App researcher Nima Owji posted photos of the gaming experience on Twitter/X on Saturday.

A representative from LinkedIn confirmed to TechCrunch that the company is working on adding puzzle-based games to the LinkedIn experience as a way to “unlock a bit of fun, deepen relationships, and hopefully spark the opportunity for conversations.”The representative did not provide a release date for the gaming experience but did note that the project has progressed beyond the images shared by Owji, which are not the latest versions of the games.
