WILDFIRE is a two-move role-playing game that acquaints players with the problems associated with the global proliferation of nuclear weapons and some of the solutions to these problems. The basic WILDFIRE game is designed to be played either in two 45-50 minute sessions of one move each or in a single session of about two hours with a short break between moves. A short introductory quiz takes about 20 minutes and should be conducted in advance if possible. If time permits, a supplementary exercise can be conducted after the two-move game has been played.
