How good are you in making bad news? Check this online game of fake news and disinformation

In the social impact game Bad News you take on the role of a propagandist. Enter the shadowy world of online deceit and rise to power. Build your army of online trolls and spread conspiracies to influence the public debate and contemplate the dangerous implications disinformation can have on your daily life and society as a whole. In collaboration with the University of Cambridge we have developed this innovative vaccine to show you how various tactics and methods are used to spread deceitful messages. We believe the best way to cultivate a sixth sense to recognize and expose disinformation is to create it yourself.

    I enjoyed the game! Makes it so easy for user to go on the dark side and be drawn to creating more and more disinformation. You should check Adventures of Literatus, excellent media literacy game developed by Armanian NGO
