GAME SAVE AMERICA
PROJECT CONTEXT & GOALS
Game Save America was a virtual game show to increase voter participation during the 2020 election.
The game was designed to be an education tool, an excuse to stop doom-scrolling, and an opportunity to remember what it felt like to laugh with other humans during a soul-sucking election cycle.

EXPERIENCE FLOW
The game was a 45-minute digital experience hosted on the Go Game Remote platform, featuring election trivia, fact matching, buzz-in questions, slogan-slinging, political pictionary and a surprise lip-sync battle.
Players were encouraged to donate on a sliding scale to play, with all proceeds from the games donated to Sister District, ACLU Voting Rights Project, Fair Fight, and other grassroots voter protection organizations.
