    The Disaster Game

    or “Lights Out”!

    This game is a simple and fun way to get people engaged, sharing and talking about preparedness
    planning and 72-hour kits. Consider this an icebreaker and a great way to get the preparedness
    conversation going. Estimated time: 20-40 minutes.

    The game is simple:


    1. Give each person an item/resource card (if you have these items on hand—such as an emergency
    radio—use the real thing instead of its card).
    2. Give each person a scenario/need card.
    3. Go around the room and have each person read their need.
    4. Each person with a resource that could help with the specific need should show their resource
    and say “I have a _____!”
    It may take a little thought or deduction to match the resource with the need!
    5. The person who offered a resource goes next, reading their need.
    It is very simple, but this activity gets people talking, they have fun and people can speak more about
    how to use each item and suggest other preparation tips.

    “Lights Out” Variation


    The “Lights Out” variation of this game is to stage the room, hand out the resource cards, and then
    turn the lights out in a surprise moment! Hand out the need cards and play. Play the game in low light if
    possible. Everyone has fun and enjoys the dramatic flair.
