What we like:

  • Playful
  • Easy

Steps

  • All players settle in a circle
  • In this round, a player goes out, he will be the policeman
  • Another player is then designated by his peers, secretly, like the assassin.
  • At a simple wink, the assassin can kill a person in the circle
  • When a player sees the assassin giving him a wink, he is murdered and must collapse on the ground

1) The policeman comes back and settles where he wants, inside or outside the circle.

2) The assassin can begin his "work", discreetly

3) The “policeman” player has three chances to unmask the assassin.

  • If he is wrong 3 times, the assassin wins
  • If he finds the assassin, the policeman wins and the assassin can transform into a policeman for a new game

CONCRETELY :

  • the assassin: What enabled you not to be caught by the policeman?
  • policeman: What did you do to find the killer?

Possible answers: get attention, make discreet signs, develop a strategy not to get caught, manipulate the policeman

FOR FURTHER :

  • How to transmit a message well so that it is received clearly?
  • In writing, what are the ways to convey a message clearly so that it is not misinterpreted?

#communicaion

  • Clarity: It is essential to be very clear when transmitting a message so that it is not misinterpreted by others. Even a simple message (here referring to the wink) can be misinterpreted if communication is not well established between the two people

For example players who lie down without being "killed" or who do not lie down when they should have

  • External signs: The importance of the gaze, body-language and direct communication is fundamental. Consider in particular the additional difficulty of online written communication where a message can be even more easily misinterpreted. This is why today we use emoticons which "set the tone", and oral messages (podcast, voice messages, video) are more and more in vogue.

For a delicate or important message, always prefer direct communication
