You can instantly play Wellbeing North Star online with as many members as you would like! Clicking on the image above will start an “instant play” game at innovationgames.com; simply email the game link to your team to invite them to play. In the game, the image to the right will be used as the “game board.” You will see three types of icons in the upper left corner.
- Note card: area of concern
- Happy face: what is working (put in sections with “+”)
- Frown face: what is not working (put in sections with “-“)
Simply drag the note card icons to the squares and describe the concerns they represent. Then, players drag the faces to the chart and describe what they represent to organize the positive and negative aspects of the concerns.
Players can edit the placement and description of each light bulb, which everyone can view in real time. Use the integrated chat facility and communicate with your players throughout the game to get a better understanding of each move. After the game, the results will be organized in a spread sheet to maximize the benefits of the game.
