Plains Biome

The plains biome, although it looks like there is nothing there, hidden in the tall grass a tribute can find hidden treasure such as food, water, and weapons. There is also very little shelter in the planes therefore, a tribute can see another tribute that is sneaking up on them easily, but towards the end of the games, the game makers are going to put some awful weather to force everyone to the starting area. This means that the weather could kill a tribute before they made it to the starting area if they stayed in the plains too long. As always, where there is treasure there is danger. Hidden in the tall grass of the plains are snakes and metal traps that if stepped on, can be lethal. It would be helpful to find something like a machete before venturing into the dangerous plains.

Jungle Biome

Although the jungle biome looks promising to tributes, it has as much danger as it does resources. It is packed with sky-high trees that provide food, wood, shelter, but also predators that need the same things, such as the wolves. The jungle would be an ideal place for someone such as Rue or Foxface. They are the type of tributes that would rather hide from the stronger tributes instead of fighting for resources. The jungle also contains the waterfall; the best possible place for a tribute to be. It contains a chest full of valuable resources and weapons, a comfortable bed, and a furnace with coal for cooking raw meat. It also has camouflage considering the cave is behind the actual waterfall.

Starting Area

The spawn area of the arena is a relatively small beach surrounded by a trench of water. Although it does not have a stereotypical cornucopia, it has a wooden hut that provides shelter from the horrid weather the game makers will throw into the arena with the simple click of a button. Chests with items such as swords, shovels, bows, and arrows are neatly organized on top of a pile of golden blocks. These are not the only chests in the arena however, there are hidden chests throughout the entire arena with treasure just as useful as the things in the starting area. Of course, at the beginning of the games, during the countdown, if a tribute steps off of their platform they will be blown sky high into a thousand different pieces. The area where the tributes spawn is where the tributes will be forced, by "nature", to come back to at the very end of the games when there is only two tributes left. This would be the area that the careers would build their defenses up in order to have the upper-hand at the end of the games.

Introduction

This quarter for 20%, Jack and I created a Hunger Games arena that was created by District Zero, the district we created last quarter. This arena consists of two biomes, a jungle biome and a plains biome. There is a large glass dome that represents the force field mentioned in the book. Since the tributes are getting more clever about trying to escape, the arena has been made smaller. This makes the games end faster which gives less time for the rebels to think of a way to escape.
