The Giver Game (Le Jeu du Donneur)

Participants are divided into heterogeneous teams of four. Each team receives a set of broken circle or square pieces distributed equally among team members. The goal is to reconstruct complete circles or squares by interacting with team members in a specific way, following strict rules such as not speaking, not making signs, and only giving pieces to others without taking them. The activity is completed when each member has formed a complete circle or square.
