Find out what happened when the Natural History Museum of Utah used use a game to bring people together to drive social change and disrupt thinking around climate change in 2017.
Utah Climate Challenge, a multi-player in gallery game installation, made in partnership with games-studio Preloaded, was designed to harness audience collaboration to effect genuine behaviour change around issues of sustainability, biodiversity, population growth, and urban sprawl.
