Full Immersion
Maximum strategic depth. Over 3–4 hours, small groups of 6–10 players navigate intricate tradeoffs, negotiate alliances, and make high-stakes calls with incomplete information. Best suited for executive retreats—the kind of afternoon that sparks conversation well into dinner.

For larger audiences. In about an hour, up to 50 players take on roles and work through a focused challenge with streamlined rules and clear objectives. Perfect as an interactive centerpiece for major conferences, policy dinners, or networking events.
