Pervasive games... is probably the most intriguing game in my opinion. It involves individuals going about the streets (or anywhere really), stalking their "contracts" to kill (obviously not really killing them). The game is to act as an assassin, and the job is to kill the contracts given to you, and the last assassin standing wins. This game is portrayed in the movie "La Decima Vittima" where literally the whole movie is about the game. There are these two main characters in the movie; Marcello and Ursula. They were both assassins, and at the final step of the game, Ursula was sent a contract to kill Marcello. In all oddity, Ursula wanted to make the assassination very grand, and so proceeded with the set ups. In many unfortunate events, Ursula failed to pull of her plans and Marcello, was yet to realize that she was the assassin assigned to him. In the shortest of words, Marcello and Ursula spent so much time together (because Ursula wanted to gain his trust), and by the end of the movie, they could not kill each other.
It was a great movie in my opinion, because I enjoy the game very much. However in terms of lesson learnt or anything like that, I cannot find any; though, I really enjoyed the movie.
