Team Building Pen and Paper Role Playing Games?
December 30, 2015 7:50 AM   Subscribe

In one of my classes for my Master's degree we did a short, team centered, role playing exercise that was pen and paper based. It involved crash landing in a jungle, and then making a series of choices to escape to civilization. I'm not looking for that specific exercise, but I'd like to find a similar print-n-play scenario that could be used with undergraduates. Free is definitely a plus. Playing in around 45 minutes would be necessary. Each packet would ideally accommodate between 5 to 8 players.

Hi - the moon landing exercise might work.

It is free and you can say NASA scientists and engineers worked on it. I had fun running it with a university class a few years ago.

Response by poster: Hmm, I do like that one, but I'm wondering if it might need to be a little longer... We're hoping that the activity generates enough discussion for the players to take notes on how they worked together.
