Debriefing Gameplay

Playing the game is half the fun: the second half comes in the conversation after the game is done. After playing your game, be sure to take some time to debrief what happened. Below is a list of questions that can help guide your group in creating some meaningful discussion together. This is just a jumping off point for your debrief–make it your own! And remember, each player should only share as they feel safe, but be willing to stretch a little too!
