Intro and Game Rules
The Bankzitters are in a former prison in Arnhem to play a balloon challenge. Each player starts with one balloon and can earn more by completing challenges. There are 10 gloves hidden in the playing field, each containing a pin to pop other players' balloons. Additionally, there are hidden bunches of three balloons of specific colors that players can find. The player with the most balloons after one hour gains a significant advantage in the endgame.
Exploring the Prison and First Challenge
The group explores the prison, noting its various spaces, including a courtyard and former cells. One of the first challenges encountered is the "balloon run," where a player must clamp a balloon between their legs and walk around the dome without dropping it. Another challenge involves performing the "Ron Jans dance" for 3 minutes and 13 seconds, the length of a specific song.
Hunting Challenge and Helium Karaoke
Joris finds animal balloons and takes on a hunting challenge, which involves shooting an animal balloon with a bow and arrow. He succeeds and earns another balloon. Later, he finds a helium tank and participates in a helium karaoke challenge, singing the first lines of "99 Luftballons" into a microphone, which reveals his location to other players.
Challenges and Glove Encounters
Joris completes the helium karaoke challenge and ties up his balloons to avoid being an easy target. He encounters Koen, who has a balloon between his legs from another challenge. Joris finds three yellow balloons, a significant advantage. He also finds a glove with a pin, increasing his offensive capabilities.
