MISSION: You have been specially selected to puzzle a solution that enables people to live and work on a new planet

Indoors 2-3 hours

Activity Overview

 Humanity is facing a historic event, as the colonization of Mars is imminent. After months in space, preparations for landing are already in full swing

 Your team has received the most important mission: you and your team have been selected to create an atmosphere that enables people to live and work on the new planet

 A brilliant scientist has developed a chemical formula for an artificial atmosphere. For safety reasons, the formula kept in a locked box and hidden within a series of puzzles. Solve the puzzles to discover the formula to create a perfect atmosphere

 However, it turns out that this formula only works under laboratory conditions, and important components still need to be included

 While chemical components such as oxygen, carbon, or hydrogen are present, the ingenious scientist has forgotten the human ingredients

 So there is no communication, teamwork, respect, or mutual appreciation in the formula – and who would want to live and work in an atmosphere that lacks these essential components?

Throughout the game, the value of each person's talent, strength and capability is vital to the team's effectiveness
