WANT TO COMMUNICATE CROSS-CULTURALLY?
It's one thing to want to do it, quite another to actually do it...and do it successfully! You can study how to communicate with other cultures.

WANT TO COMMUNICATE CROSS-CULTURALLY?
It's one thing to want to do it, quite another to actually do it...and do it successfully! You can study how to communicate with other cultures. You can read or hear about it and others may even try to help you do it right. But it's not the same unless you experience it yourself. The Kampei Game is a cross-cultural simulation for Christian groups of 15 to 45 players.

GET THE REAL FEELING NOW!
In less than an hour your group can go beyond just hearing about communicating cross-culturally to actually experiencing it. The Kampei Game can be used as a separate program, as an introduction to further study, or just as a fun change of pace.

The Kampei Game was written and designed by the author of The Luna Game so it has many of the components The Luna Game has. Whereas in The Luna Game participants get to feel what it's like to go overseas as a missionary, in The Kampei Game they learn how to reach out to immigrants, ethnic peoples, who've come to the USA and may live in their city but are going unnoticed. It's a tremendous simulation game to encourage and empower participants of all ages to roll up their sleeves and reach out and befriend the world that has now come to us.

WHO CAN USE THE KAMPEI GAME?
The game was designed to be used by Christian audiences. Any group, study, seminar or training program can use The Kampei Game to teach participants cross-cultural communication based on experience. Sunday school teachers, youth group leaders, pastors, professors, trainers of communication skills will all find The Kampei Game to be an entertaining and educational experience.

HOW TO PLAY
In The Kampei Game, part of your group becomes the Kampeis, while the other part, the Nortes, tries to get to know them. The conflicts that follow uncover the real issues, hidden misconceptions and proper attitudes regarding cultural interaction. Your group can have a cross-cultural experience in one hour without leaving home!

The Kampei Game has been designed so that anyone can lead it. It's a package that includes everything you need to simplify your job as a leader. Inside this package you will find: a complete director and assistant manual instruction CDs for both cultures overhead transparencies to prompt discussion assorted handouts used by each culture pencils, cameras/journals, money name tags, plus a game whistle.

Number of players: Game pieces will allow for groups of 15 to 45 participants and additional materials can be ordered from the publisher for larger groups.
Ages: Game is designed to be played by participants 14 years and up, though it's been used by younger audiences as well.
Special equipment needed: Besides the game materials included you'll also need to have two CD players and an overhead projector or flipchart.
