Description

Game where teams build power plants on an island to support the local towns

Resources

Set of pens, scissors and bluetac per team. Tables for drawing on. Whistle to make announcements

Instructions

Put teams at one end of the hall with a table each. Give each team a crib sheet explaining the different building types, two sheets of blank squares for them to draw on, scissors and bluetac.

Make an island for each team by sticking two sheets together to make a 6x5 grid with mountains at the top and sea at the bottom. Put islands at other end of the hall. Islands start with one town and no power.

The game lasts ten years. Each year:
• Read the event title out
• Two members of each team run up and add a building each to their island
• If any team is being slow then they only get to add one (or zero) buildings
• Read the rule out and work out scores for the year.
Scores are:
• If there is not enough power for all towns (each town needs 2 power) on an island then score 0 for the year.
• Otherwise score two points per town.
• Add or subtract any bonus points

At end of ten years (or however long you want to run the game for) then the team who accumulated the most points is the winner!
