Participants are told that the nuclear reactor has broken down and it is up to them to repair it in time to save their city from a nuclear disaster. Therefore, they must work as a team to quickly find the best strategy for forming a cone by stacking the two middle cups on top of each other. To avoid endangering their lives during the repair process, no one is allowed to go beyond the edge of the concentric string. The only way to handle the cups is by using the strings attached to the rubber band.

You may set a time limit before the game begins to emphasize its competitive aspect.

CAUTION: A flat surface is required for the game to work properly.

To begin with, our day leaders welcomed the children in the usual way, then the leader, who was playing the lead investigator on the case, explained that the next crime we would be investigating was theft. During this time another head came through the door, he explained in a sober tone that they should put the theft aside because something more important had come up, namely murder. He explained that as he was walking in the field he saw a dead man on the ground. The two of them and the chief investigator then got the children ready and together they all walked to the park where the usual investigative game took place.
