Three Rounds. Three Revelations.
Each round unlocks a new layer of understanding, from self-interest to collaboration, and ultimately, resilience under pressure.
Self-Interest
Stakeholders tend to play their Action Card for their own interests. Individual goals drive the first decisions, setting the stage for competitive dynamics.
Coordination
Players begin to coordinate their Action Cards. As shared consequences become visible, region points start to grow through collaborative strategy.
Disruption
A Disaster Card is introduced, reshaping strategies and outcomes. Resilience is tested and true climate leadership emerges under pressure.
Will the region thrive, survive, or die?
