Perspectivity Game

In one our activities we played a sustainable game called "The Perspectivity game ". I have shared the link for the reference https://www.theperspectivitychallenge.org . The game was fun. The maximum players allowed in this game is 6. Each player has to select an color they want, they will be given with number of clean factory icons , normal factory icons and roads. The picture below is the game,

The game is simple and easy to understand. The importance of the game is to have an idea of environmental issues. The planning of building a factory makes the game interesting.

I would like to share my experience in playing this game as an activity, I was playing with a team mate , as we had 9 players and its a 6 player game so 2 players were in groups.

as each team has to select a colour of their choice and they will be given with some pieces of roads, clean factories, Normal factories. Each player was given a card to note down the resources they have for each round.

To build a normal factory costs you 3 points, for building a clean factory 5 points and building 1 road 1 point. For replacing a normal factory to a clean factory its 3 points.

the revenue from the factory is 1 for both clean and normal factory.

The starting point is considered as the reward collection point from , the reward won't reach the collection point if no roads were connect to the factory to read point.

At the first very player will be awarded with 3 points and they have to place a normal factory on the starting point and start building. for each round we have to calculate the rewards from factories and have it in a chart.

The game takes place for 10 rounds . The winner is the one with high revenues at the end. the player has to spend revenues in each round, in the 10th round he/she has to spend everything.

After each round the facilitator, counts the number of normal factories place in the board, in the first few rounds we couldn't really get what she is counting, she asked to pull a card from a deck and the result will be a natural calamity and ask a player to roll a dice, if the number like 3 falls in the dice, she takes the resources like factories and roads around the number in the board. Sometimes after counting she asked us to pull 2 cards, we didn't really get why she was counting and asking us to roll the dice at the end of each round.we kept on adding adding the normal factories. by nearing the 7th round we figured out the problem is putting up a normal factory.

we then planned to reduce the normal factory and replaced the clean factory with normal factories. After 7 rounds of polluting the space its already late.But we understood the core idea of the game is to teach about how can we collectively be responsible on our environment. However Tim won this game as he had lots of resources. which is the only rule confusing about this game. But i enjoyed playing this game it was a new experience.
