ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Live-action game

So, you know how when you play games on your tablet or computer, you see things on the screen and you control what happens using buttons and a mouse or touch screen, right? Well, a live-action game is like that, but instead of being on a screen, it happens in real life!

Imagine putting on a cool costume or outfit, then going outside with your friends to play a game where you pretend to be superheroes, ninjas, or even detectives. You get to run around, solve puzzles, find clues, and complete challenges to win the game.

Sometimes, live-action games are played in specific locations, like a park or a museum, and you have to follow a map or a guide to figure out what to do. Other times, you might play in a more open area like a city, and you have to figure out how to get around and complete your missions without getting caught or seen by other people.

The fun part about live-action games is that you get to use your imagination and creativity to come up with strategies and solutions, just like you do when you play video games. And, the best part is that you get to do it all while running, jumping, and having fun with your friends in the real world!
