The gAIME of Life is an innovative storytelling experience that blends theatrical performance, collaborative storytelling, card play, and cinematic elements. Players watch a scene and then work together to craft the next chapter of the story. The game involves 5-7 players, including a Guardian of the Gaime who leads the story and a Keeper of the Story who records the narrative. Each player is dealt a card with a secret instruction they must creatively incorporate into the story. The game aims to explore solutions to inequality and imagine a fairer world through creative storytelling. Players pledge to be brave, collaborative, and imaginative as they build on each other's ideas. The ultimate goal is to contribute to a feature film, created by mentees and mentors, that addresses the question "How do we make a fairer world?" Through this immersive experience, participants learn to navigate complex scenarios, think systemically, and develop empathy - all while exercising their imagination to envision positive change.
