The FU teambuilding package, based on Spacey's character Frank Underwood, allows participants to take on the role of politicians representing one of ten rival nations. The goal is to improve the country, but delegates must ensure their own constituents are kept happy.

Chillisauce wrote to cabinet members inviting them to try out the experience free of charge in a bid to boost the teamwork skills of the British coalition government.

Michael Chidzey, head of digital marketing at Chillisauce, said: "This energetic experience of power struggles, scandal, ruthless policies and high powered negotiations is a high impact way to improve some essential skills.

"We have politicians from opposing parties running our country together so we thought they would be the perfect participants to test drive and benefit from the experience."

In the FU teambuilding experience, each group will play out a five-year term in half a day, negotiating everything from national scandals to natural disasters. The indoor activity is available to groups made up of a minimum of 18 participants, and up to 200 individuals.
