HR Ascend Corp · New employee onboarding
How to play
Three ways to play. One deck, one set of badges, one device. Each version has its own orientation reel, narrated. Attendance is recorded.
The Standard Year Reel 01 · 4–8 employees · about five minutes
Play for money. Four quarters, then the audit. Highest personal cash is named Chairman of the Board.
The Small Merger Reel 02 · 6–8 employees · about five minutes
Nobody plays for money. Two employees arrived with an acquisition and are hiding in the org chart.
The Merger Reel 03 · 9–20 employees · two rooms, two devices
The CEO has written one memo. Nobody may read it. Each department has twenty minutes to reconstruct it, word for word.
§ For employees who prefer to read

The device offers whichever versions your table can support. Nine or more plays The Merger.

01
The Standard Year
4–8 employees · play for money
Four Board words, one memo, two changes each on the way down. Sabotage pays, and so does being the last one standing.
-
02
The Small Merger
6–8 employees · no money
Two of you do not really work here. Everyone must change exactly two things, so the damage never stands out.
-
03
The Merger
9–20 employees · two rooms, two devices
Room is where you sit. Department is who you work for. They are not the same thing.
