PLEASE NOTE LAST MINUTE TITLE CHANGE.
We decided "Poo-lution Revolution" had a better ring to it than "Poo Wars."

Review of final Play-test.
Positives,
Our was the most active game and helps kids engage with our meta theme in an active physical way.
The children had the best suggestions for how to deal with cows, they did not need any direction from us.
Children were willing to engage with the Eco-warrior and the cow objective, teamwork was also encouraged to achieve the two goals.
Objects and costumes were received well, from participants and parents alike.
The Poop box did slow the eco-warriors down. On one occasion the cows won by completely polluting the filed, because 'processing poops' took so long. A good message for the realities of the water situation in NZ.
Negatives,
If children were tired or felt unevenly matched it was hard to engage them in the game. The game favoured the physically fit and coordinated.
The box sleeves, easy for adults were too long for the children. Many required assistance.
Our game was unexpectedly physical. With so much going on in terms of other players and props, a couple of kids were overwhelmed or fell onto the concert floor.
We do not recommend playing this game in a small concrete area, a large grass space would help.
Enforcing rules and focus was challenging, some children would get lost or confused in the excitement of the game. This resulted in intentional and unintentional cheating.
