A first-person clicker game which shows how easily mis-, mal-, disinformation and fake news can spread across the globe. 

Explanation

This is my internship project from Japan where I worked on with a variety of peers. The topic of my game was “The development of serious games aimed at improving metacognitive abilities”. By simply clicking on an in-game share button (just like on social media) you help a message/post gain traction via the algorithm. I then show how easily different forms of mass communication influence how quickly a message/post can go viral. 

In September 2025 I was able to exhibit this game at the Tokyo Game Show with everyone from my internship as part of the definite ending of this project.
