Game
LIFEgame™ is a creative simulation game of life that
seeks to provide an environment for participants to
discover God’s purposes for their lives in this world.
Initially, LIFEgame™ mainly targeted at youths & young‐adults, but it has been proven that it works as well for adults and even retirees too.
A “make‐believe” world is set up in a camp or retreat environment where participants are given the opportunity to live out their whole lives however they wish. Starting at age 15, they begin to pursue their dream, get an education, find a job, buy their first car, purchase a house, get married, raise a family, and climb the ladder of success. Every hour they will age 5 years and they have to take care of their personal needs like food, clothing, health, etc. Like in real‐life they may face health problems, accidents, fines, or even death as a result. No one knows how long they will live. Some might die prematurely while others may retire at a ripe old age before they meet their creator face to face.LIFEgame™ is about living life and that’s where the reality of the real world sets in. Eventually, each participant will question, “What’s the point of life?” and that, is the whole point of the LIFEgame™—an opportunity to discover God’s purpose for living. Coupled with small‐group discussions, dramas, mimes, songs, videos, & messages, the LIFEgame challenges participants to:
(1) commit to Christ for salvation;
(2) commit to live a life after Christ‐given purposes;
(3) and commit to serve Christ full time in ministry.

Mission Game is a simulation program developed by LiFEimpact Ministries in partnership with Wycliffe Singapore. It aims to provide a creative approach to TRAIN Christians on evangelism & missions, to EXPERIENCE the process of preparing & participating in missions and to be MOTIVATED to reach lost souls.
A simulated city environment is set up for the participants to practice lifestyle evangelism, as well as a foreign city with a different language & culture for them to experience missions.
Participants will face the tension of balancing their career, family obligations, personal spiritual growth, church commitment, and also the call to missions. The workplace & marketplace also present to them opportunities to reach out to the unbelievers which will be role-played by volunteers.
Participants will discover how they can invest their time, talents & treasures into God’s kingdom as they pray for missions, pledge towards missions, prepare themselves for mission and participate directly in missions.
By playing the game, the participants can discover for themselves the BIG picture of a healthy church and how each principle contributes towards the overall growth process. It also provides a platform for players to experiment with varies strategies and experience the possible outcome before applying them in the real church setting.
