Imagine if instead of boring surveys, people shared their opinions on climate change while playing a mobile game. This project turns gaming into a tool to find out what millions of people actually want from environmental laws. It's like a digital bridge that lets governments listen to the public through play.
Policy makers struggle to get honest, large-scale data on citizen preferences for climate policies. Traditional surveys often fail to reach diverse or underrepresented groups.
Two game platforms: PlanetPlay for large-scale quantitative data and SGI for small-group qualitative insights. Additionally, analytics tools were built to visualize this data for policy makers.
If you are a polling firm dealing with low response rates in traditional surveys — this project developed a survey engine deployed in hit mobile games that can reach 3 million players. This allows for massive data collection without the friction of standard questionnaires.
If you are a software provider dealing with a lack of citizen engagement in policy making — this project developed analytics tools to capture and visualize data for policy makers. This transforms raw player preferences into actionable insights for climate legislation.
If you are a game developer dealing with a need to add social purpose to your titles — this project developed a method to integrate short-burst survey engines into hit games. This adds a layer of real-world impact and citizen science to the gaming experience.
Based on available project data, no specific pricing or cost structures for the tools are provided.
Yes, the PlanetPlay platform is designed for scale and is expected to reach 3 million players in hit mobile games.
Based on available project data, the specific licensing terms are not mentioned, though the project involves 9 partners across 8 countries.
It provides a communication channel where data on citizen preferences is transferred to policy makers to influence the creation of better climate policies.
The project period runs from 2023-02-01 to 2026-01-31, with pilot studies already completed.
The consortium is research-heavy with 6 universities and 1 research institute, but maintains a 22% industry ratio with 2 SMEs. This balance suggests a transition from academic theory to practical application, leveraging expertise across 8 countries including Germany, China, and the UK.
