'''Jalak''' ( | '''Jalak''' (also known as '''Jalak Dador'''<ref>'''''Jalak''''' is the correct name; ''Jalak '''Dador''''' is a pun, possibly started by [[Ryan Miller]], on the phrase "D'ya lock tha door".</ref>) is an [[Age]] that, according to sources translated by the [[DRC]], was used for some sort of sport or competition. The specific details of the original game are unknown. Explorers are encouraged to invent their own games, or use their creativity to build unique structures. | ||
Visitors link onto the "playing field", though there must have been other linking points that allowed spectators access to the stands. The field consists of a 5x5 grid of squares; each square approximately 5 feet to a size. Each corner of the playing field has a unique color and symbol on it: blue "swirl", red "U", green "circle" and yellow "fish". This same pattern and orientation is mirrored on each square, so that each one has a blue, red, green and yellow corner. Each square can be raised or lowered about 3 feet at a time. There are 20 possible heights for each square. The sides of the columns are decorated in symbols with a somewhat Mesoamerican style. | Visitors link onto the "playing field", though there must have been other linking points that allowed spectators access to the stands.
