Een stap-voor-stap handleiding om het spel te spelen

1

Gather the players and explain that they will embark on a storytelling adventure using the Compliments & Talents poster. Emphasize that the goal is to create a fun and positive story, incorporating various elements encountered on the poster.

2

Each player selects one of the characters on the poster to represent them on their journey. Explain that their chosen character will be the protagonist of their story.

3

Players can either roll the dice to determine the number of squares they move or choose to move square by square. The game can proceed in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction, depending on the group's preference.

4

As players move their pawns and land on different icons, they must incorporate the icon into their story. Use the following prompts for each symbol (see additional game information).

5

The players take turns moving their pawns, adding to their story with each new icon they encounter. Encourage creativity and positive storytelling, reminding them to think about how each element contributes to the growth or happiness of their character.

6

The game can continue until all players have created a complete story or for a set amount of time.

7

After sharing stories, engage the group in a discussion about the experience:

  • How did creating a story make you feel?
  • Which parts of the story were the most exciting or funny?
  • How did the positive elements (like compliments and talents) influence your story?
  • What did you learn about yourself or your character during the storytelling?
