I’ll be doing a workshop in a few weeks, and I wanna raise awareness about predatory lootbox paytowin games. I wanna play live, an easy to start playing and understand game, that is so sneaky and predatory that some kid would very easily buy some microtransaction or lootbox without even realizing what they just did.
Basically I wanna play it like “Ohhh, look at this game, looks so fun, oh, what is this? more gems? lets see, Nooooo!!! I just bought a microtransaction, I won’t be able to eat for a month”
Do you have some recommendation for that purpose?
I would classify it in the same mental bucket where I put activity and workout monitor apps that track steps or calorie goals.
Now, whether it actually produces consistent, net positive health results, I can’t say either way.
Pretty much. If they made a “Pokemon Fitness” that tracked steps or heart rate and calories burned, it would be the same thing. “Your steps were converted to fitness energy! Here are the Pokemon you met in your walk!”
