Technology of organization and conduct of the game

The person who organizes and conducts the game is traditionally called the master. He himself does not participate in the game, his goal is to create conditions for the successful play of children. In order for the game to be successful, you need to perform the following sequence of actions:

After the game, it is necessary to conduct a conversation, where each participant tells what role he played, what means he used, with whom he interacted, whether he was able to achieve his goals. The pronunciation of the game takes place in a general circle, in an atmosphere of goodwill and voluntary statements.

Litigation "Planet and man - friend or foe"

Role-playing games (RP) are of two types: scripted and non-scripted.

Scenario RI

They belong to the category of great creative works. The group of organizers takes as a basis a real-life situation (revolution, Miklukha Maclay's meeting with natives, etc.), or a situation from a book, and adapts it to the real place of the game and the participants. After that, tasks are formed for the participants, which talk about the situation and their role in it. (Of course, the task must be formed in advance so that the guys have time to get acquainted with the materials about the situation: read books, ask adults, prepare costumes.)

Scenario games, as a rule, have the following pedagogical goals: to familiarize children with historical material in an interesting way and to develop acting skills. Such games are easier to conduct than non-scenario ones and, as a rule, give fewer failures during the conduct.

Non-scripted RI

A non-scenario RI can end unplanned for two reasons: loss of interest in the game, fulfillment of the game goal by the game participants. Accordingly, special attention should be paid to the prevention of these reasons when preparing the RI.

The organizers formulate for themselves the goals of the participants in the game (for example: earn as much money as possible, establish parliamentary government, etc.). Next, the possible roles of RI participants are described. Whether or not to tell the guys about their game goals and their roles depends on the specific game. Sometimes the role goal of the participants is set through the situation, and not directly. After the development of roles, methods of influencing the course of the game are considered, roles for game masters are selected, they sign when and how game masters begin to influence the game. The options for setting additional game goals for the guys in a playful way are signed in case they fulfill their goal ahead of schedule.

Non-scenario games, as a rule, have the following pedagogical goals: the development of independence, the ability to navigate in a new situation, the development of intellectual potential, the formation of a concept of goals and means to achieve them.

Stages of composing a role-playing game

Problem formulation. The problem must excite the author (or it must be savored, which requires some skill). Break down into tasks.
A fan of bright, emotional scenes, pictures that will<задевать>playing. This is necessary because mainly those things that took place against the backdrop of vivid emotions are remembered. The scenes should roughly correlate with the tasks at hand.
thinking through<географии игры>, that is, what is where, what heroes play what. The development of scenes, that is, the plot. What groups of players are there. Modeling and isolation of constants and variables. + rules and standards. (+ sinusoidal activity).
Schedule by people or teams, finish by individuals
Thinking through the background activity (creating a special activity for the younger psychological age).
Prescribing game algorithms (to increase the tension in the game).
Beautiful and visual design of the game.
Docking the game with the leaders of the group.

It is necessary to take into account:

Atmosphere is very important for RPGs. Because if you want people to feel like pirates, kindly put them on a "ship". To create an atmosphere, music, costumes, vocabulary are used ...
Role setting is a way to create a role, the ability to distinguish a person from the mass.
You can add a role moment to almost any game. And it's often worth it.

What are the games

Epic games (full-time activity) The game, which becomes the leading activity, the core of the shift, subjugating all collectives and groups, all-camp mass holidays. The epic game is based on an invented legend. It is overgrown with rituals, secrets, mandatory division of labor and duties, and certainly has a printed set of laws - taboos, charter, code of honor, etc. The secret of the game is in a well-thought-out program and an unusual plot, which easily solves many children's problems in the detachment.
field games Such games are most often held "in the field", that is, in a more or less uninhabited area, which is why they are called that. For example, players decide to play Ancient Rome. They distribute among themselves the roles of patricians and plebeians, warriors and slaves, residents of neighboring countries. The scale can be different: somewhere they try to portray the whole city, or even several cities or even the whole Mediterranean, somewhere, say, guests at a patrician's feast. Throughout the game, players will attempt to live the way they think the characters lived, speak the way they would speak, and make decisions based on their characters' goals.
No less common board word games, they are also modules, "dengens" and so on. In such games, no one runs anywhere or waves anything, and the actions of the characters are simply described. For example, the player says: "I'm climbing a rope on a wall." What and how he succeeds is determined by the rules of the game. They give the player truly limitless possibilities, but require a developed imagination.

Beware the game!!!

It may seem paradoxical, but the most serious obstacle to the use of the game in the camp is the professional training of the counselor and his teaching experience.

Firstly, alas ... but, many counselors use the dominant methods of communication and raising children: discipline, rules, distribution of roles, regime. Inspection functions are prohibited in the game: they destroy the game itself. The task of a competent organizer of the game is to make sure that the players are "ordered, punished and explained" by the game itself.
Secondly, the organizer can only influence the course of the game, but cannot determine it. A personal attitude cannot be divided into right or wrong, it either arises or it does not. And the attitude of the players to the last game may not be at all what the counselors expected. Role play is an unpredictable, spontaneous method! The use of stereotypes here leads to show participation.
Thirdly, it is imperative to avoid the symptoms of "gambling" when a child begins to use the game as a compensation for his own failure in life. Most often this is due to the construction of games according to a template. After a series of similar games, the players have the illusion of their own "coolness" - "we all know, we can do everything." As a result, there is a desire to act only in the mastered area, and then the child reveals himself only in the game.
But the most dangerous thing, in our opinion, is to “play too much”. Another father of "psychodrama" J.-L. Moreno noticed that some, having entered the role, had difficulty getting out of it. In especially susceptible children, when immersed in a role, psychosis and depression begin. For a certain category of children, the line between the imaginary and the real world is unsteady, and when playing “in role” it sometimes disappears altogether. The task of the counselor is to prevent immersion, to help use the game as a means, and not as an opportunity to escape from reality.

How to build a role playing game

When preparing a role-playing game, along with the creation of a plot, it is necessary to single out another important stage - the placement of people in the playing places. The scenario is divided into two parts:

distribution of roles between people, taking into account their personal characteristics;
introduction to the game - the construction of special "bridges" along which the child adapts more easily. The main thing is not to forget that in a role-playing game, as in life, there are rules and steps.

The first step is the joint distribution of roles. After the playing places are filled, the little man is introduced into the role - installation. At the same time, it is important to outline the boundaries of the game world, give an idea of the type of the game world (epoch, roles, legends), set a set of actions possible in the game (what is possible and what is not). Children will only play what you tell them to play, so the text of the installation must be very carefully drafted and even more closely monitored for how it is understood. As a rule, most of the turns of the game that are contrary to the plan of the counselors are associated with an incorrect installation. The final stage can be put out of the game situation. A purely entertaining game almost always comes down to a "game of war" - the child tries on a role and acts according to the plot in life.

Why are they playing?

As you know, with age, the needs of the child change, respectively, the motives of his behavior, including the game, become different. So, initially children play because it is interesting, then they play “for something”, by the age of 12 they move on to a serious role-playing game in which they discover the world of relationships. For us, adults, this game is a waste of time, an opportunity to “occupy” a bored person. For children, the opposite is true: only in the game the child solves his problems that he could not solve in reality (get to know a girl, learn to command, try his hand at something new, chat with guys from other units). If there is no game, one of the most effective ways of managing and learning about the world around us will disappear.

Game progress:

Presentation for everyone.

According to the scenario of the role-playing game Yacht, you will need various props.

It is detailed in the rules, however, I will say the following:

1. The map can be printed, or you can draw it beautifully on whatman paper, if you have time and hands.
The seal of the captain, you can buy at the kiosk of Rospechat (seals with Smeshariki are sold there).
If you simply stick a piece of plasticine as a seal, it will easily peel off from the door jamb and stick back without a trace of opening. To avoid this annoying possibility of hacking, you can make real seals: we take a cap from under the soda, coat it with plasticine and tightly tape it into the door jamb. To the door, just as tightly we fasten a thin rope with adhesive tape. We wind the rope into the lid, to a slight tension and put a piece of plasticine on top, pressing the prospector into the lid. From above, on plasticine (preferably light colors), we stamp a signet. Thus, it will become impossible to open the room without damaging the seal. The sealing procedure must be carried out by the captain in the presence of the owner of the cargo, but the props must be glued with adhesive tape in advance.

According to the scenario, in almost any role-playing game for teenagers or adults, you will need a weapon.

Pistols can be used from children's pneumatics of two types: with plastic balls and with rubber bullets. The difference is as follows:

With plastic balls, the gun is easier to reload and there is a real magazine that can be removed. However, the bullets are small, and it is not always possible to notice whether you hit the enemy or not.

With rubber bullets, the gun will have to be reloaded like a musket, driving the bullets into the barrel after each shot. This bullet is much easier to find on the floor, pick up and use a second time.

Which option is preferable - decide for yourself, the main thing to remember is that All weapons must first be tested on yourself, on the strength of a shot at close range. Shooting point-blank (really point-blank) I recommend modeling like this: the shooter points a pistol into the enemy’s body and says “bang-bang”, after that he immediately lowers the barrel down and shoots at the floor. If the bullet flew out and the shot was successful, then the enemy was killed. If it turns out that before the bang-bang the shooter forgot to cock the gun, then there was no shot.

The entourage of the role-playing game "Yacht" can be provided by the following elements.

In addition to the general design of the room, you can download music from the 30s and 40s for the cabin campaign and the sounds of the sea for other rooms on torrents.

As a radio station, you can use not a typewriter, but a cell phone glued / tied to the captain's table (respectively, using a walkie-talkie is sending the right SMS or calling the right number). At the same time, do not forget to write down the number in this phone as a “radio station”.

Also, if you have portable radio stations, then you can organize a speakerphone from the captain's cabin to the entire yacht (and also make masterful announcements through them).

During the organization of the role-playing game Yacht, you need to take into account one flaw in the script.

More precisely, a phrase in the tasks of one of the players. He needs to "acquire a document confirming the right of ownership ...". No one can issue this document. Because of this, the game task becomes impossible. The solution is as follows: 1. Remove this phrase from the task. 2. Give the captain the powers of a notary (confirmation of transactions, weddings, issuance of death certificates, etc.). In other words, any document sealed (signature is not important) becomes legal. Well, except for passports, of course. The second option complicates the task of the first character and brings a little variety and side jobs to the life of the captain.

In almost every role-playing game, there are hard-core "bad guy" roles.

Otherwise, the role of the bad guy would be played by the master. Given that the game is pseudo-historical in nature, it is important to pay special attention to the issuance of such roles, especially if the game is played for teenagers. After the game, it is always necessary to give each player the opportunity to speak out. For those masters who will be especially stressed by the brutality of a number of roles, I recommend looking for a version of the Yacht about the Caribbean crisis. In fact, this is the same yacht, only a remake with different names and countries. But the remake, in terms of atmosphere, is worse than the original, so take it only as a last resort.

The finale of the plot-role-playing game "Yacht" can be beautifully beaten.

This can be done with the help of killed players. 5 minutes before the final in one of the rooms (preferably not a game room), we dress them all in camouflage (and the master also dresses), put on bulletproof vests (black bags with holes for the arms and head), paste the necessary chevrons with adhesive tape, distribute spare pistols ( the more weapons, the better). In two minutes we explain who they are. And at the moment when the game time expires, we break into the playing territory and then, depending on what chevrons you have on, do so. But in general, the process of victory should be driven by the winning players, and not special forces in camouflage (he only makes sure that no one else takes out pistols and tries to escape, well, he also controls the behavior of the winners, checks passports if necessary).

If you decide to enlighten your friends on the game according to the scenario of the yacht, then be sure to write how it went. Also, if you have any questions while preparing for the game, feel free to ask in the comments. I will help with all I can. And if there are other powerful scenarios in your file cabinet of role-playing games, I will be glad if you share the link.

Interesting. Tell me, in what place does the murder, the introduction to sleep and the search take place? Not in front of everyone. And how then does the put to sleep react to the put to sleep?
Yuri 10th March 2013 .
an interesting situation arose 12 guys and 3 girls was it worth rewriting the legends or just giving the girls male roles and the guys female?
Denis 11th July 2013 .
Hello! Decided to play the game on the other camp site. There are only 13 of us, so I excluded English intelligence from the game and edited the roles.
A few questions.
How is it possible that the flag will be moved not by the captain and the first mate? When will they be offered money, for example?
how to open a safe with weapons in the game?
Denis 12th July 2013 .
In the role of the captain, it is written that he and the first mate are on duty in turn, but in the role of the first mate, this is not written.
in the roles still in my opinion a mistake. the first mate of the sapota wrote that “Among the passengers, you recognized several more people: SS officer Peter Bocca (F. I. player), who rides under the name of Pierre Brusso, and José Balboa (F. I. player). You have never met them personally. You saw Peter Bock once in the Reich Chancellery. And you know Jose Balboa in absentia - his photograph appeared in the case of the laboratory, it was assumed that he was well acquainted with the author-developer of "Weapons of Retribution."

José is a typo and refers to Tomaso?

About the safe. - the captain has the key and they can steal it, redeem it probably? I'm interested in the game. Can it be hacked?

About the management of the yacht is written only by Abraham Weinger (in addition to the captain and the first mate)

Another question - is there enough poison for only 1 person?
What about a sleeping pill?
Where to put the antidote? Isn't it released to anyone?
The seal and the false seal must be identical?
Are real passports different from fake ones? on what basis?
Vova 16th November 2013 .
And how long does the game last?
Elizabeth 2nd December 2014 .
Good afternoon
Tell me, please, where can I find more scenarios for cabinet role-playing games? I can't find any scripts on the internet.
I really liked the yacht, but, unfortunately, we are not recruited 15 people.

Hello!
in the text document CAPTAIN FORMS, a link is given to this page and it says that on this page we will find out why the captain's forms are needed, unfortunately I did not find this (
that was the first question.
The second question: in the terms of the game it is said about a real phone and about real calls and SMS, where and to whom should they be sent?

(As a radio station, you can use not a typewriter, but a cell phone glued / tied to the captain’s table (respectively, using a walkie-talkie is sending the right SMS or calling the right number)
Or are we talking about masterful announcements, then in this case you don’t need to write or call anyone, and the phone may not be real, and I can pronounce announcements out loud ???!!!
Roman 26th December 2014 .
How to use radio?
Roman 28th December 2014 .
Please write an answer regarding the captain's forms!
And it is not entirely clear how infection occurs, how to determine who has become infected.
Thank you))

Who should initially have an order for the right to issue funds ... and who should find it??
Andrew 13th January 2015 .
Hello, super scenario, there are only a couple of questions that I did not find answers to.

If there are fewer than 15 players, which characters should be eliminated in order?

In 1 of the comments I saw that there are other characters, where to find information about them, this is if more than 15 characters play

The question arose, are coffee / cookies in the bar sold for play money, or is it better not to bother with this and consider food included in the fare?

Funny Reply:

In general, this is the captain's competence - this is his ship and his rules. But according to logic and torture, they are usually sold for 1-2 dollars a piece. The fact is that both the bartender and the captain will be able to earn extra money somehow + the bartender and the waiter do not have the feeling that they are wasting their time + eating like the rich on the ship. so the poor for whom 1-2 dollars is a significant amount. So it's better for the money, however. the captain can announce for free and make an exception for someone separate (sometimes the team is fed by the yacht)

I apologize for a possibly stupid question, but I can't figure it out. And how to attach the lid (for sealing) to the jamb with tape? Then cut a hole in the tape? But she won't hold on, will she? Or does it need to be tied to the end? Nothing comes to mind in any way ... I completely lost my ingenuity. 🙁

Thank you so much for your help, we played the game. The first time it turned out a little crumpled, but everyone just loved it terribly. If anyone is interested:

What's the point of giving Sandra Trevolyan the skill to control the radio if the task of British intelligence is not to transmit anything over the frequencies?
Alexander 17th April 2017 .
Do I understand correctly that the captain's cabin is in a separate room so that no one can see who is there now? What about the cargo compartments? Should they be located so that no one sees that someone is approaching them? And another question: if, for example, the V-2 documents and the amber room are a folder and a box, respectively, then all players will immediately see if someone has taken possession of these items. What is the best way to avoid this?
