About This Game


Manage a digital influence agency in this strategy-simulation game about modern-day propaganda and advertising.

Manipulate social media and the mainstream news to promote celebrities, market products, and even sway elections.

Research, share, leak, and target your way to influence.

Features

  • Control of a business that provides influence for hire, mostly through social media.
  • Missions from a variety of clients: corporations, talent agencies, governments, and others. You choose who you want to work with and what types of jobs you're willing to undertake.
  • A network of public attention, eager for the next scandal that you may choose to break

???s


During your experience, you might reflect on questions such as:

  • How does what we pay attention to and what we ignore shape reality?
  • Who is manipulating our attention, and why?
  • How is social media shaping news and journalism?
  • How is media used to both promote and fight authoritarianism?

(Or, you might just blithely pursue profit and influence. The choice is yours.)

***

A first playthrough of Influence, Inc. generally lasts 2 -3 hours. However, different choices lead to different missions, so you are encouraged to play multiple times with different strategies.
