FIASCO – A game that teaches survival and critical thinking

Best Product of Lithuania’s Junior Achievement Student Company 2025 | 4th place in the European “Gen-E” Competition

Does your family know what to do in extreme situations?

FIASCO is not just another board game. It’s an educational adventure that teaches real survival skills in a fun and fearless way. Instead of frightening and moralizing, FIASCO invites the whole family on a creative journey to Peace Island, where every decision becomes a new story.

How to Play?

Each player chooses a unique character (from 8 options – from a panda to an astronaut) and tries to reach Peace Island. Along the way, 40 extreme situations await in four different locations:

• City – danger sirens, accidents, threat recognition
• Home – fire prevention, electrical safety, first aid
• War – evacuation, shelters, psychological resilience
• Nature – navigation, shelter, food and water search

When facing a situation, players must find a creative solution to survive – but here lies a double challenge! You need not only to come up with an escape plan but also convince other players and the narrator that your idea is the best. 14 condition cards further complicate the task and create nearly endless combinations.

Why FIASCO Stands Out?

✓ Learning without fear – unlike traditional safety lessons, FIASCO develops independent thinking through laughter and creativity

✓ Every game is a new story – 40 situations × 8 characters × 14 conditions = nearly infinite combinations

✓ Real skills – knowledge learned in the game can save lives in real life

✓ Creativity and critical thinking – similar to Dixit or Codenames, but with practical value

✓ Social mission – you support young Lithuanian entrepreneurs’ mission to teach society safety skills

Who is FIASCO for?

Families – creates a safe space to discuss complex topics: how to act during a crisis, what decisions to make in extreme cases, how to stay calm and cooperate

Schools and educational institutions – an excellent interactive teaching tool that develops 21st-century competencies and supplements safety lessons

Gifts – an original, meaningful, and Lithuanian product suitable for people of all ages
