Planning process

The organizer chooses map, token and signal tasks and assigns practical responsibilities to each team. The host explains that supplies are game pieces and the route is fictional. Evidence is checked from paper outputs rather than outdoor feats.

Result explanation

The planner supports an entertainment circuit with a timeline, roles and points. It does not assess real terrain, weather competence or emergency survival skills. Indoor scope is a deliberate design choice.

Alternative

Run one shared map instead of separate teams if cooperation is the main goal.

Execution notes

Do not turn fictional supply decisions into real survival advice. Keep materials suitable for the group and actual venue.
