Description Force Game Fit is a technique designed by Helmut Schlicksupp and that is very linked to Brainwriting Game, since it is based on similar principles, namely that an element of competition can benefit the creative process, contrary to what is usually said about it.
The author recommends the technique of using the Force at the beginning Fit Game or at the end of a day's training or a session of creativity techniques, as it is useful as a warm up before tackling the other techniques, or as a final test, when the day comes to a close, participants are tired and is useful to make something particularly compelling.

The steps
- The moderator comprises two groups of 2-10 people each, first to define and analyze the problem to be addressed, to ensure that there is a starting point and a shared understanding between all participants. In addition, you define a maximum time for the performance of the technique and what the two groups will have to get ideas.
- The group proposes an idea, the more unusual and far from the problem. This is because the competition in this technique is based precisely on the fact that a group gives you an idea very difficult to put into practice the other's task is to find concrete measures to achieve it.
- In the next step, in fact, group 2 will have to devise a plausible and practical solution, based on the idea of \u200b\u200bgroup 1. So if the solution will be found to be viable, a second group will earn a point, otherwise, the victory will go to group 1.
- Meanwhile, the manager marks all the ideas and solutions on a whiteboard on your computer, so that siano consultabili e utili in qualsiasi momento della sessione. Un altro compito importante del moderatore e quello di evitare che il clima diventi eccessivamente competitivo, guastando l’atmosfera e le potenzialità creative del gruppo.
- Al termine del tempo stabilito, le idee vengono valutate e combinate per individuare la soluzione più efficace e praticabile.
