Emotional Tone

  • Disorientation
  • Humidity
  • Urgency
  • Fear of hidden threats
  • Uncertainty about direction and rescue

Facilitation Emphasis

The Jungle scenario often exposes assumptions about danger, tools, food, water, weapons, and navigation. Participants may emotionally overvalue dramatic items and undervalue boring survival fundamentals.

Common Participant Behaviors

  • Overvaluing weapons or dramatic survival tools
  • Underestimating navigation and signaling
  • Focusing on fear instead of priorities
  • Arguing from movie-based survival assumptions
  • Confusing activity with effectiveness

What To Watch For

  • Does the team prioritize immediate fear or actual survival needs?
  • Does anyone challenge cinematic assumptions?
  • Are practical items dismissed because they feel boring?
  • Does the group separate rescue, hydration, movement, and safety?

Debrief Angles

  • Fear-based decision-making
  • Familiar narratives vs real constraints
  • Overconfidence in dramatic solutions
  • Prioritization under uncertainty
  • How teams define useful

Do Not Reveal During Gameplay
