Yesterday evening Bellwether released our new video game, “Rigged.” It’s also our first video game, and we haven’t seen a lot of games based on education issues.
To build it we went around the country listening to the stories of kids who are involved in the system. The game is not reflective of any one story, but is built from these real life examples and as you play you’ll get a sense for the choices kids sometimes face and how sometimes the “right” choice nonetheless carries adverse consequences.
It’s one piece of a broader body of work we do for disconnected youth.
