“Money City”: transformation game in Tallinn
“Money City” is a psychological transformation game in which our usual ways of dealing with money, resources, opportunities and other people become visible during the game itself.
How do you choose when resources are scarce? And when there is plenty? Do you take risks or save? Do you notice opportunities or walk past them? Is it easy for you to give and receive? Can you ask for things and negotiate? What happens to you when someone else has more? And what do you do when reality suddenly goes off your plan?
Everyone brings their own question: wanting to earn more, changing their relationship with money, dealing with a financial ceiling, making a decision, seeing new opportunities, or simply understanding what is actually going on between you and money.
Then the city begins: a game board, dice, money, metaphorical cards, the laws of money, choices and tasks, gains and losses, unexpected circumstances, and other people beside you.
Gradually, through the game, beliefs, limits and habitual ways of acting become clearer, the kind we may not notice in ordinary life. While making decisions you observe yourself, and then the most interesting part begins!
One board. One set of rules. Sometimes even the same task. And four people can see, understand and live it in completely different ways.
By the end we try to gather not another pretty insight about yourself, but an answer to a much more useful question: “What do I want to do differently now?”
The game lasts 4 hours.
Sunday 29 November, 12:00–16:00, Sarle Art Gallery & Studio, Aia 17, Tallinn. Five participants in total. Price €55.
Who creates this space? Alena Sidorkina. Synergy is my second name. I am a coach, constellation facilitator, game practitioner, and a practitioner of body-oriented approaches and meditation. For many years I have explored people: how we think, feel and choose, how we interact with others and create our own reality. I like formats where you do not have to become the “best version of yourself”. You can stop, look at yourself a little more carefully and notice what is often left out of frame in ordinary life. That is why I love transformation games. In the game we often discover ourselves before we have time to come up with the right answer. I want to create a space where you can be curious about yourself, try things out, notice, laugh, be surprised, and take away not only an insight but also a bit more clarity: “What do I want to do with this now?”
Time and place: 29 November 2026, 12:00, Sarle Art Gallery & Studio, Aia 17, Tallinn.
