How to play
A camp-wide economy game. Split into small teams, each belonging to one of four categories. Teams travel between simple challenge stations, earning money for each one completed, and spend it on items at a central bazaar. Away from the bazaar, teams may challenge teams from other categories to steal their money — and roaming "bombers" can latch onto a team by tagging a member, blowing up after a set time and costing the team everything unless it passes the bomber on by tagging a different team first. Finish with a story read aloud by the leader: teams that bought the right items at the bazaar survive each chapter, and the team that lasts longest wins.

Psychiatrist
In the game "Psychiatrist," players are divided into two roles: "The Psychiatrist" and "The Patients." The game is played in rounds, with one player as the Psychiatrist and the rest as Patients. The assigned player leaves the room while the Game Leader instructs other players to display a unique symptom, such as pretending there's a smell in the room. The other players maintain the same symptom throughout the round. The assigned player returns, freely questioning the other players to diagnose the shared symptom. Patients must answer truthfully; intentional misleading is corrected by the Game Leader. The round ends when the assigned player accurately diagnoses or gives up. Another Psychiatrist is chosen for the next round, and the game continues until everyone has had a turn or time runs out.
