Jailbreak
越狱
About the game
游戏说明
Some students from Lancaster University in the UK are going to have their annual Jailbreak Competition later this month. It is organized by the university’s division of Students in Free Enterprise, a non-profit organization, run by students, which helps to fund sustainable projects in developing countries.
英国兰卡斯特大学的一些学生计划于本月晚些时候，举办他们一年一度的越狱比赛。这个比赛由该校的大学生企业家联盟筹办，这个非盈利性组织由学生管理，旨在资助发展中国家的可持续项目。
Traveling in pairs, participants have 36 hours to journey as far as possible, without spending any money. Before setting off, they are given posters and T-shirts, in order that they might raise as much money as possible. When they reach their destination, students are required to take a photo and buy a newspaper to prove that they were there. Prizes are awarded for most money raised and furthest distance traveled.
玩法：两人一组进行旅行，参与者需在36小时内不花一分钱并能走多远走多远。为了能让他们在旅途中筹到尽可能多的钱，在出发前组织方会发给他们海报和T恤衫。当学生们抵达目的地时，他们要按照要求照张像，并买张报纸证明他们到此一游。筹钱最多、走的最远的小组将会获奖。

Humans vs Zombies
僵尸大战
About the game
游戏说明
You don’t have to wait until Halloween to play a zombie game. Created in the fall of 2005 at Goucher College, US by students Brad Sappington and Chris Weed, the game Humans vs Zombies has taken the US by storm and is now played on more than 200 college campuses across the country. Many find that the game is a good way to make friends.
你不必非要等到万圣节才能玩僵尸游戏。美国古彻学院的学生布拉德•萨平顿和克里斯•威德在2005年秋天发明了一款风靡全美的僵尸大战游戏，现在全美超过200所大学校园的学生们都在玩这种游戏。许多人觉得这个游戏是个很好的交友平台。
How to play
玩法
Everyone playing the game starts as “human” with the exception of one: the original zombie.
每个人在游戏开始时都是“人类”，只有一人例外：那就是“原始僵尸”。
If a player is touched by the zombie, he or she then becomes a zombie and is required to “tag” at least one human every 48 hours to stay in the game.
一旦玩家被僵尸碰到，他就会变成僵尸，每隔48小时他都要“感染”一个“人类”才能继续留在游戏里。
If a human player manages to “stun” a zombie with a toy gun or a pair of rolled up socks (socks are recommended by school faculties), they are safe for the time being. The “stunned” zombie is not allowed to tag a human for a predetermined length of time.
如果一个扮演人类的玩家用玩具枪或一双卷起来的袜子打晕一只僵尸（袜子这个主意是由学校老师的提出的），那么他们就暂时安全了。“晕厥”的僵尸在预定时间内不能再传染人类。
The game can last days, weeks or even all semester. If less than a certain number of humans survive the attack, the zombies win.
这个游戏可以持续几天，几周，甚至是整个学期。如果人类的数量少于规定数量，那么僵尸就赢了。
