Home is _____
A downloadable game for Windows
This is an interactive experience that explores the meaning of home. It is an adventure, first-person game where the player can walk around a house and interact with various rooms that explore our personal interpretation of what home is.
Our goal with this project is to help alleviate some of the homesickness many international students experience after moving to the UK. We believe that showcasing our individual experiences, as well as providing a community blog for people to share theirs, can go a long way in improving their mental well-being.
We have picked this particular demographic due to evidence that suggests international students are much less likely to report their mental health struggles than their British counterparts.* It is our hope that this interactive experience will help bridge the gap between these two groups.
Our project will therefore allow us to contribute towards two of the 17 UN Goals for Sustainable Development: good health and wellbeing, as well as reduced inequalities.
Please stay tuned for any updates to this page, we will be releasing this game very soon!
