Wonderful! Love the experience and the discussion after that. Food for thought.
Immersive and cleverly designed with recycled plastic, it sends the tots racing from my prefrontal to limbic modes n love how the discussion eventually gather them together.
It was such a unique and thought-provoking experience! Thank you to all who created this experience in SG!
Scare City was an incredibly interesting and fun experience.
Scarce City was based around a simple activity of catching lights but it made me and my friends reflect on our intentions, actions and their effects on ourselves as well as the world around us. It seems to ask the question: is there a different way to get to a better future for everyone? I also want to praise the game design, sound design and overall environmental design as it made for a very immersive and fun experience. I also appreciated the after-activity discussion where we got to see our game performance results and learn more about how this activity came to be!
Simple game but great concept
