 * Evoke – to create anew, especially by means of the imagination. You live in a world with too much misery, yet alive with potential. What you see does not have to be. Some look around this world and ask why and do nothing, you see the same world and ask why not, but do something. Do something. That is your mission. Go forth into the world and act. Your challenge is to take a thought, an idea, a vision and make it real. In this journey you will be challenged with many quests and taken through many levels as your idea evolves. You however will not be able to do it alone, you will need to reach out to others for the necessary resources, tools and inspiration to accomplish your goal. While individual initiative is essential, success increasingly requires a community of minds or collective intelligence to solve a problem. Reach out to that collective intelligence and collaborate to realize the change you envision.

To begin the adventure, you will start with 50,000 platinum ZAK – the currency in this world. Along the journey you will need to make choices. The first will be to set up your venture or to join an existing venture. A series of quests will then face you. You will need to first understand your world, identify challenges that you see, create innovative solutions to these challenges and ultimately evoke the idea that will change this world.

As you go forth you will need to allocate your ZAK wisely but you will also need the confidence of other players, the power to attract others to your idea and the endurance for your venture to prosper and grow. Each of these traits will be rewarded. At the end of the journey, the venture that has accumulated the most wealth, confidence, power and endurance will be crowned champion and recognized as the organization whose ideas have the greatest power to change the world.

If you are ready for this challenge, let’s begin. Imagine. Create. Solve. Change. Evoke. Log in and start today.

Welcome to Evoke. And congratulations for taking on the challenge of making a difference in your world. There are many ways to play this game depending on who you are and what you hope to learn, share and ultimately create through your participation. You can take on one of the following three roles:

Social Entrepreneur – You are an individual or group of individuals who either have an idea or want to go out into the world and evoke the change that you want to see. If you are a student at a university or a social entrepreneur in a community, this is the role you will most likely want to take on.

Venture Supporters – you do not want to take on the full responsibility of running a venture, but you want to help make a difference in your community. You can join an existing venture and help create or develop a project with other team members. If you are a member of an existing NGO or organization and you are hosting a team or a student at university or high school level that wants to contribute, take on this role.

Venture Advisors – You have unique experience to contribute to the development of innovative ideas. You will play the game as a mentor and leader in supporting the evolution of an idea from concept to prototype. If you are a professor, business professional, or community leader, this is the role for you.

Host Organization – You are a leader of an NGO or CBO working in a community and want to invite an entrepreneur to work with your organization to create and incubate his idea, you can advertise here and then contribute to the game as either a supporter or advisor.
