Resource Type:  This game designed to help groups discover their individual and group skills and talents (including some nontraditional ones), build confidence in their ability to handle problems, and demonstrate some skills through performance and problem-solving activities.

Main Audience: This game would be helpful either for a ministry team or the indigenous community leaders a ministry team is seeking to serve. It reveals a group’s assets and guides the game participants towards optimism, confidence, and problem-solving action. Note that the game was originally designed for use in a developing world context; users may want to adapt some of the language to make it more suitable for use in U.S. cities.
