How the activity works
🗺️ Organisation & How it works
Each team takes their turn and advances the number of squares indicated by the giant dice. The suspense begins from the very first roll — which square will we land on? Challenge, bonus or duel? The whole team holds its breath !
🏁 2 — Challenge Square: All Teams Compete !
All teams go head-to-head at a challenge stand. The winner gains 3 squares of advance. Laser shooting, disc golf, curling, blind test, human Tetris — every challenge square triggers a different and unpredictable contest. Victory can change everything in an instant !
🪿 3 — Goose Square: Jackpot !
Lucky draw! The team lands on a Goose Square and immediately rolls again for the same number of squares. A stroke of fortune can propel your team far ahead of your rivals — the game turns on every single roll !
☠️ 4 — Skull Square: The Dreaded Duel !
Chosen duel! The team challenges the opponent of their choice. The loser goes back 5 squares — a high-stakes moment that generates dramatic tension and alliance strategies worthy of the finest board game encounters. Who do you dare to challenge ?
🏆 5 — The Grand Finale: Beat the Game Master !
Reaching the final square isn't enough — you must also defeat the Game Master to claim ultimate victory! A finale worthy of a grand tournament, with the pressure of winning resting on the shoulders of the entire team.
