Working title: NewsArcade: seriously, play the news!
NewsArcade- Seriously Play the News! is a 2 year Creative Europe-Media co-funded project (project no: 101060250) with a mission to bring together journalism and news consumption closely by means of gamifications. The project’s general objective is to tackle the challenge of the legitimacy of traditional media among youth. The idea is to strengthen the bond with the audience and create new connections with distant potential audiences, by actively taking the reader into account, explaining why and how news media produce news and bringing together journalism and news consumption. The game will put readers in the perspective of a journalist and give news publishers a means to distribute existing content in new ways, to seek out a new audience. It will be embedded in news media websites and will constitute the only game in the market that is based on real, evolving news.
