“It was the height of the Cold War, and a dangerous time to be stationed in the Soviet Union. One evening, while the chief of the CIA’s Moscow station was filling his gas tank, a stranger approached and dropped a note into the car. The chief, suspicious of a KGB trap, ignored the overture. But the man had made up his mind. His attempts to establish contact with the CIA would be rebuffed four times before he thrust upon them an envelope whose contents would stun U.S. intelligence. In the years that followed, that man, Adolf Tolkachev, became one of the most valuable spies ever for the U.S.”
In this game called Milk & Honey, you will get in the skin of either the KGB, the CIA, or Tolkachev himself – on the streets of Moscow during the Cold War. Use your Watchers to find the spy in your midst so that he can be brought in for interrogation / find Tolkachev so that you may gather valuable intel that can be used against the Soviets – but be careful: the walls have ears and the streets have eyes…
Milk & Honey uses game based learning to reenact David Hoffman’s book Billion Dollar Spy. Make sure to dress warm – even during summer it may yet become a cold winter…
This spy game can be played with anywhere between 20-100 players, both live and online.
