Requirements You are to plan a mystery game that you solve that uses scientific principles either in the circumstance or in the solution. You need to use some unknowing participants. You will play the game and shoot a 3-5 minute “commercial” video that shows shots from your game. This will be submitted by Thursday /Friday June 2 and 3. We need to be able to watch the video in class. I suggest posting the video on Youtube.

A paragraph on how well you think the game went.
