This week\u2019s game was Captain Sonar. the game is a competitive team game of four people trying to sink the other team\u2019s battleship. Each person has their own unique objective and it is all in real time. The hardest part for me was the real time aspect of the game. It goes so quickly and you are constantly having to make decisions on the spot while remaining focused and calm. I was each position at least once and each one had its own challenges. The hardest part of radio operator is when the opponents submarine goes silent. It happened to me multiple times in one game and it was so hard to navigate it once they moved silently. The other position\u2019s hardest part was communicating the plan for the submarine. \u00a0Each person had to be on the same page at all times in order to win and that was very difficult.<\/p>\n
The leadership skills in this game are very important. Working on a team is the most obvious skill in this game. Communicating and figuring out how to work together despite another team trying to kill you is very hard to do. In addition, critical thinking skills, and listening skills as the radio operator are both things that a leader should have. The balance of when to deploy an ability is another struggle because that can win or lose you the game based on the radio operator\u2019s knowledge. The central skill of having a plan of \u201cattack\u201d is another important aspect of this game. Lastly, Timing is very critical in this game. The real time feature relies on the speed of each member while communication is flawless throughout.<\/p>\n
Someone that would enjoy this game is my brother Reilly. He would love the real time mode of this game and how fast paced it is. He would also enjoy that each person has their role and that the team has to work together in order to achieve victory.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
