The Goal of this project is to develop some idea of what a greener economy and the challenges associated with it might look like.
Our group will examine how an economy focused on the environment and human happiness can react to externalities.
Have you ever wondered how the economy would react to five consecutive hurricanes? How about a lava monster attack? No? Too bad!
Each player will be responsible for managing the development of an individual island and their people in a nation of four islands.
Every player must manage their population by allocating their available labor to the four roles that directly impact their Human Development Index (HDI). In order to win, you must meet your population’s minimum resource needs each round while also avoiding overproducing resources.The player with the highest HDI score out of the four players is determined to be the winner.
Come play our game on Friday, November 18th at the Sustainability Showcase event during the poster and games session, 11:30am - 1:00pm. We'll be in Kirkhof Center's Pere Marquette Room (Allendale Campus). Hope you're able to join us!
