Session

Join in playing an escape room game that your library can use for helping patrons build resilience to misinformation. Teams of 4-6 will compete to solve a series of puzzles involving deepfakes, social media bots, and misleading data to uncover the truth about a new brain-enhancing supplement. Following the game, we will share our co-design kit for localizing and developing new games.

Maximum capacity: 30 people
