A game that raises attention to biometric mass surveillance:
The European Pirates and the Greens/EFA group in the European Parliament launched the social impact video game ‘The Biometric Outrun’[. In this game] players must escape facial recognition technology while navigating through three different levels of camera systems in public places. Whether gamers are able to complete the game depends on their ability to collect information on the current state of the debate on banning biometric mass surveillance.
Play the game here:
Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.

lol the game sucks, but it’s absolutely intense in trying to bring the message across
Yeah the game isn’t the best but it’s clearly cool to see this kind of initiative to spread awareness
this seems interesting in the game on steam?
No, it’s only on web, IOS and Android. It’s a really short game (~3-4min maximum) so steam isn’t really good for this case I guess. The main goal is to raise awareness about the subject while being a bit entertaining for people who might find it abstract/complicated.
