Propagandist is an educational game where the user runs a newspaper startup in the beginning stages of the War in Ukraine, writing newspaper headlines while balancing resource use. It is intended to teach the user about the effects of propaganda and how it proliferates by incentivizing the user to create misleading and outrageous articles, and showing how the effects of their articles end up changing their newspaper company’s revenue, outreach, and credibility.
