- How to play?
Divide into small teams. Teams compete at stations to win money. Object of the game is to buy as many plane tickets to Journeyland for their team as possible. Plane Tickets can be purchased from a central location. Ticket prices change throughout the game randomly, but tend to cost more as the game goes on. Second factor of the game is the “Mission Collection”, where teams are encouraged to donate but are not told anything more about this.
Extra tickets can be awarded at the end of the game based on how much teams have donated to the Mission Collection (can also have a raffle where teams have a certain number of tickets in the raffle depending on how much they have given to the Mission Collection). Mission Collection must be closed before the end of the game to prevent teams from dumping all their leftover cash. Name teams after fellowships that need to fly to Journeyland cause that’s fun.
