In this exciting debut of our series on misinformation and disinformation, we dive into the world of disinformation games—engaging, thought-provoking interventions designed to combat the spread of fake news. We'll explore how these games are harnessing the power of play to change the way we interact with media, focusing on two major communication theories: Inoculation Theory and Transportation Theory. These theories provide insight into how narratives and strategic exposure can protect and shift player behavior. Featuring the wildly popular games like Harmony Square and Bad News, this episode breaks down how disinformation spreads, why we fall for it, and how game design can help us fight back. Whether you’re a gamer, a media enthusiast, or simply curious about the impact of fake news, this episode is for you. Stay tuned as we uncover the psychology and strategy behind these innovative educational tools!
Tune in for a deep dive into the fusion of game design, psychology, and the fight against misinformation!
