We’re clashing Phoenix Wright, Disco Elysium and narrative deck building with the ecological crisis — to help fund real court cases.
For the last year or so, a team of researchers and game designers has been working hard on a bold new game concept: All Rise — a game where you take big fossil fuel companies to court.
Last year, for a brief time, I was part of the efforts by Dutch activist group Fossielvrij to take ABP pension fund, one of the world’s biggest pension funds, to court.
In late 2021, the Anticiplay team set out on a journey to make a climate courthouse game inspired by real life climate court cases against powerful polluters.
My idea: to make a Phoenix Wright-style game, but focus it on climate lawsuits against the powerful. Next to the two cases mentioned, such lawsuits are being tried all over the world.
