Science Gallery is developing a unique game for secondary and University of Melbourne students inspired by our next exhibition, Emergence(y).

Dive into a thrilling world where your choices shape the fate of humanity!

Imagine a future where every decision you make ripples across the globe. Will you be the visionary who ensures our survival, or the catalyst that tips us towards chaos? It's not just a game—it's a glimpse into tomorrow!

Climate crises demand swift action
Food scarcity tests your resource management skills
Ecological shifts challenge your adaptability

Are you ready to:

Prioritise competing needs?

Balance short-term gains with long-term sustainability?

Your choices could spark a revolution or trigger a catastrophe. The clock is ticking, resources are dwindling, and the world is watching. Will you rise to the challenge?

Who can join?

All currently enrolled University of Melbourne students from any faculty or degree level are invited to participate!

What will happen during the session?

You will meet other students and together you will play the game for 75 minutes. After the game, Science Gallery facilitators with ask for your feedback and insights about the game.
