A step-by-step guide to play the game

1

Divide the group into two equal teams.

2

Explain the 3 roles:

  1. The princess conquers the knight.
  2. The knight kills the dragon.
  3. The dragon kidnaps the princess.
3

Set the sign for each character:

  1. The sign for the princess is the reverence, accompanied by a giggle specific to the princesses.
  2. The sign for the knight is an imaginary attack with the sword, accompanied by the battle cry.
  3. The sign for the dragon is the raising of hands threateningly accompanied by the dragon roar.


4

Each team moves away to be able to choose the role for the first round. The choice of role is made in secret (the other team must not hear the chosen role) and by negotiation within the team.

5

After both teams have chosen a role, they return to their original place and sit in line, back to back, about one meter away from eachother.

6

The game coordinator counts to 3, and the teams turn so that they face each other, mimicking the sign of the chosen character.

7

If any of the team members mimics another sign than the established one, the other team automatically wins a point.

8

If everyone respects the role, the team whose role dominates the role of the other team wins one point (the princess wins in front of the knight, the knight wins in front of the dragon, the dragon wins in front of the princess). If both teams choose the same role, it is considered a draw.

9

After each round, the teams choose a new role, using the secret negotiation process (it may be the same role as the previous one).

10

The game ends when one of the teams reaches a certain number of points (3 or 5).
