*****This is created purely out of anger and frustration as to what is happening with Ihumatao and the Otuatua Stone Fields*****
Your in a car going to your next job, you are a construction worker.
You arrive at the new site with all the boys in the van to find that you know you are in a familiar site.
Your boss starts talking gathering people and starts to ramble on about specifics as to the contract and giving out tasks that he needs to be done.
You hear him say "Were in a housing shortage crisis" then out of no where a loud ballow starts out loud the voices of thousands of wairua haka gets near.
"Who are you and what right have you here"
"This is the land that holds the blood and bones of thousands what right have you to rip it all up"
The player then looks up to tell his boss "Im sorry I can't do this sir"
When he gleers at you and sneers "its your job your walking out with"
This is when the game would start.
You have the angered spirits attacking the people at the workplace. Your job should you choose is to try and protect them by using karakia and trying to place protection on those people and trying to stop the boss from continuing work in the money making manner.
You have to gain the trust of the spirits by allowing lessons to be learned on those who consequence's are there own.
The player must help protect those who have done nothing, are ignorant to the fact.
Its those who don't care that are in the spirits sight, for they have dug up Pa sites, of cemetery's in fact.
To do this the player has to help fight off the spirits and protect the people still living, the more the game plays the harder as the spirits become more angered and stronger.
The player must use what powers he has been taught through learning of tipuna, maunga, whanau, whakapapa and lifes other learnings.
This could open up with basic karakia that would enable general minor protection from the spirits but they can still drain the peoples energy from here once the player has gained enough XP they can learn things like using blessed water then being able to open your third eye and surround players in white light to protect them before encasing them in fires of colors that each have representation.
**Chakra colors are a close resemblance to the view of what im after***
The aim of the game is for the player to beat their high score, each time the player plays they gain XP.
As time goes on you can ask for help, You can equip the player with help (by spending XP) to use Tohunga's, Kaumatua's and Kuia's, to help protect the people from maakatu.
Its up to the player as to who they would like to protect but the aim is to raise awareness that to Maori it isn't about the money or the land its about the Mana.
kanohi ki te kanohi, tangata ki te tangata
Mana is not just a word it has a big meaning behind it which is greatly explained by Tame iti:
