Dear Nivedita,
You wanted your employees to be engaged. However, we need clarification before we give suggestions.
What is the nature of your industry? What kind of employee engagement activities are conducted in your company? You want an engagement with what? Is it the organization's philosophy, vision, values, or all? How could you segregate the mental engagement and physical engagement of the employees?
In your case, you want employee productivity to be improved because of their high level of engagement. But then the question arises, on what ratios do you measure productivity? How do you measure an organization's productivity? Is the measurement scientific? Other than employee engagement, there are other means through which productivity is improved. Did you implement those?
The last sentence of your post says "The activities should also help employees to focus on the work more." What if we replaced the word "work" with "result"? Will it be acceptable to you and your leadership?
Possibly my above questions may jar you. However, my attempt was not to discourage you. Public forums are always open for questions and debate. Hence these questions.
Thanks,

Dear Dinesh,
We conduct various employee engagement games which give the employees a new perspective on how they can focus on their targets. We are an executive search firm with certain visions and core values (Trustworthy Partner, Entrepreneurship, Innovation with Quality, Learning Mindset, and Teamwork). For each core value, we have already planned a few games and conducted some activities previously. As we enter the second quarter, we aim for our employees to concentrate on their individual targets. To enhance focus, I am identifying a few fun yet educational experiential games that will provide them with new paths and ideas to realign with the set goals.
I hope most of your questions are answered. I am looking forward to any suggestions you may have regarding the engagement games.
Regards,
Nivedita

An actively engaged employee is one who uses his/her discretion in discharging the duties, responsibilities, and roles allotted/assigned to him/her in alignment with quality, quantity, and timeframe standards given/stated by the employer.
Therefore, employee engagement need not be a "campaign" but an enduring commitment built over time and not instantly. Elementary framework shall, inter alia, include mutual trust between the employer and the employed person, delegation of authority not centralized command, as it were, a sense of belongingness to begin with.
Is your top management team ready and willing to let go of the command and control work ethos?
Team Kritarth is ready and willing to provide assistance if so required.
