How to play the game?
Youβll play the role of a pupil with a certain socio-economic status. During your school career you will encounter different situations with different consequences. This results in positive experiences and negative experiences that in turn affect the rest of your life.
Together you decide how the game will go and what the most likely scenario of a given situation is. In part two of the game you discuss how you were affected personally by playing the game and you can work with online tools to create an action plan.

Reviews
Inspiring and insightful
“”I think it is a very nicely designed game. Because of the multiple rounds, the game gives insights in different ways. It is a confrontational game but because of the playful design fun and inspiring to play. I would definitely recommend playing the game with different groups. In addition, the theme of society right now is very relevant, which has been innovatively and fun worked into a game by the creators of this game.” -LisanneAC

Unique game!
“Recently played the game with friends and the game has made a lasting impression on me. By playing the game you experience how it feels to be in someone else’s shoes and how determining a ‘good’ or ‘not so good’ start can be for someone’s career, life and future. During the game we were shocked sometimes regarding the unfairness of life, the special thing about the game is though that we also had a lot of fun. In short, a unique game that I can recommend to everyone!” -Boetjeboel
β I highly recommend the game!
Insight
“I’ve played the game with a few different groups now; different people’s reactions continue to surprise me. A lot of my friends know something about opportunity inequality but they don’t know what it’s like to come home at night to a house where two drunk parents are hanging out and you’re trying to stay away from the beatings. I have had the support of those around me to get out of such a situation but many don’t get that support. The people I played the game with all knew about opportunity inequality but I feel like they understand it better now.”

Positive for social awareness

Because of the nature of the game its not likely that one would play the game over and over again
Eye opener!
“This game opens your eyes in a beautiful way. In theory I know that I have been lucky with many coincidences in my life, but stepping into a completely different role including a different first name makes me realize and feel even better how much randomness there is in the world and how much happens to you without consciously choosing it. This fact touched me during the game and also afterwards, while at the same time it is just a fun game with lots of laughs. This game sparked fun and interesting conversations between me and my friends. I think βfun with substanceβ is the best way to describe the game.” -MerelB86
