Bakers and emperors compete for goods they need for baking bread or amassing riches. The thieves lurking around do not make these tasks easier. But if they are in the possession of the right spell, they can call the Golem their friend. For a short amount of time. Better be far away by the time the spell loses its effect on the golem or you might end up at the doctor.
Equipment
You will need:
- a Golem costume made out of shoe boxes, tape, cable binders and a headlight with different modes
- Emperors' crowns made of of cardboard and string
- Bakers' hats made out of plastic bowls and string
- 80 Silver Nuggets made out of marbles wrapped in silver tape
- 80 Flower Packs (use packs of baking powder)
- 4 Plastic cups
- Thieves' masks made out of black cloth
- 2 inflatable Axes
- Battery powered Amp, an MP3 player, a sand clock and a headlight
Non-Player Characters
You need at least 3 non-player characters: the Golem, the Golem Shadow, and the Doctor. 2 helpers to watch the items in the field are also very helpful.
Level Design
Castle Silver Mine Bakery Mill Thieves' stash Doctor's office
Rules
- Players are either Baker, Emperor or Thief
- Bakers collect Flower from the Mill and bring it to the Bakery.
- Emperors collect Silver Nuggets at the Mine and bring it to the Castle.
- Everyone can only carry one object at a time!
- Thieves ambush Emperors and Bakers by touching them and steel their item. The victim goes to the doctor.
- For ten items, Emperors and Bakers can buy an axe at the doctor's office. With the axe, you can defend yourself and your team from thieves. Thieves that get hit by the axe must go to the doctor to heal.
- Doctor NPC behaviour
- Beware of the Golem when he is in a bad mood! If he touches you, go to the doctor.
- The golem can become friends with players if he accepts their magic spell. To perform a spell, get the Golem's attention, kneel down and point to five words that you can read in the environment, while saying them aloud. If the Golem likes your spell, he will allow you to touch him and you can ask him to help you. For example, the Golem can carry up to ten items for you! He can protect you from thieves or attack other players and send them to the doctor. But watch out, the Golem will only be your friend for a time, and you cannot charm him twice in a row...
