Preparation

Numbers and numbers written on cards that are scattered around a botaphore well (or a water-related facility such as a concrete fountain).

Detective cards on which each digit of which letter of the alphabet corresponds, the deciphered Morse code, as well as other codes that will serve them during the game.

Shortly before the start of the game, a sheepskin is hidden in a garbage bag next to a garbage can, along with fruit on which is written with the Morse code and red paint "they soaked my clothes with blood"

Cast:

"Jacob."

- Joseph's brothers

- the slave trader

Introduction

1st clue - ropes (from Joseph's hands when he was tied to the well by his brothers)

We present the first clue to the children, we tell them to look for some inscriptions or numbers written in the yard, written on a boot well, each of these numbers actually corresponds to a letter, and the goal is for the children to decipher what is written, so the children get the sentence that reads: "We watered the sheep here"

2nd clue - sheepskin bag + 3rd buttonhole - Fabric

We start looking for something related to sheep. We take the children outside and look around the streets. Slowly we direct the children to the place where the skin is hidden and when we find it, deeper, inside the bag, the children find a folded white cloth (3rd clue), on which it is written with morse code. alphabet and red letters (to make it look like drops of blood): "They soaked my clothes with blood."

4th clue - The colorful dress

The children decipher the alphabet by writing it on their help cards.

During the game, one of the children has to write down everything they have seen and deciphered. After the children have deciphered the "blood" on the white cloth, the group leader gives them a house address, only written backwards; when the children find out where to go they go there and when they arrive they see Jacob - Joseph's father, who is very sad and keeps a colorful garment covered with "blood" (4th clue) The children ask him why he is sad, and he says that his child has died. Detectives ask for more information, but he replies that he knows nothing and sends them to ask his other children for more information, then gives them the dress and scrambled letters for the whereabouts of his other sons.

The denouement

The children go to the place and ask the brothers, where they find the brothers counting a lot of money. Detectives ask where the money came from and the brothers say they are from sheep sales; while the children question the brothers, one of the people who bought Joseph passes by and greets the brothers, but they pretend not to know him. The children become even more suspicious and go to ask the man how he knows the brothers, and he calmly tells that he bought a young boy from them at a very good price and leaves.

Detectives discover the truth and understand where the missing boy is, what his name is and who the culprit is.
