2019, Alternate Reality Game
Powerplay was an experience that was meant to emulate how totalitarianism can come about and how such restrictive regimes gain power over their people.
It began with a blindfolded walk through a room littered with obstacles; the only way to go from place to place was by carefully listening to an audio provided to you. Once you had completed your blindfolded tasks, you would play a click-through game (all copies of which have now been lost) that would take you through the world of Liaj - presented to you under the guise of an ideal city, but covered in red tape.
The experience ended with you finally having to eliminate a poor young girl, an outlier in the 'utopia' of Liaj.
Below is a video representing the blindfold walk. Please pardon the quality, the whole experience was put together overnight as part of a project at NID.
