The game is inspired by Stanley Kubrick’s film Shinning. You will experience the nightmare of a mayor invited to a wind turbine Congress in a large, almost deserted hotel. You will have to make a final decision on whether to install wind turbines in your village. At this conference, you will meet mysterious characters (wind turbine actors and stakeholders), collect clues and will have to make a decision as the nightmare unfolds in spite of you. You will have to search for information through several 3D rooms (lobby, cocktail lounge, corridors…), discuss with the ghostly characters, solve chaotic puzzles and make choices despite the confusion of influences and lobbies. The different mechanisms of influence, their legal and transparency aspects will be explored through these choices. 

Here is the scenery of Lobbying 3D digital game. During 30 to 50 minutes approximately, the players will discover all about integrity, lobbying, wind turbines and corruption. They will have to search clues, talk to people, solve puzzle to make a decision at the end.
