This is a "serious game" for anyone interested in developing a policy, program, product, or process. 


While navigating a story, players are guided by stakeholders as they walk through best practices and standard elements of project proposals. 

The Program Prototyper is more than a game. As they progress, players respond to questions and prompts to parse out details that explore professional development, intervention parameters, community capacity,  staffing plans, budgeting and funding, and more. 

All the effort will be rewarded by reporting the information back to the player at the end via templated displays, printables, and downloadables. (Coming soon.)
