Gridlock

Problem Solving, Risk

The Challenge

To determine a path across the grid network of spaces. A participant is allowed to move as far as they can, until they make an error. At this point, a new participant begins the journey, and attempts to make a better choice at the site of the last error. Allow the group a few minutes to plan before the activity begins.

Typical Presentation, Storyline or Metaphor

Help prevent gridlock!

Ok, here's the drill. You work for a very competitive delivery company. You have the best trucks, the friendliest drivers, the best computerized technology at your fingertips, and right now you have a vital package that is needed on the other side of town. It is 5pm, rush hour, and you need to find the best way across town. Main roads, side streets, back alleys, any way you can find. Anytime you come to a dead end or traffic jam, you'll need to change drivers. When you find the correct route to take you through all the traffic, you can alert the company and have the rest of the drivers follow you.
