WE DID IT!!! Yesterday we crossed $30,000 and reached 100% funding on our Kickstarter campaign. Thanks to everyone who supported this project, Agents of Influence has taken a huge step forward toward becoming a reality.

We have reached $25K funded on Kickstarter!! Less than $5K until we reach our goal. #agentsofinfluence #agentsofinfluencegame #kickstarter #misinformation #disinformation

REWARD UPDATE: We are offering our steeply discounted tickets to our 2 panels on Educational Games and Media Literacy + Misinformation. If you are a current or prospective backer looking to attend one or both of these panels, now is your chance! bit.ly/AgentsInfluenceKickst…

Today we're featuring another counter-misinformation game that inspired us: Go Viral! Much like Bad News, the goal is to get likes on social media by posting fake or sensationalized content. We challenge anyone to top our score of 23,591 goviralgame.com/en

Highlight: @getbadnews, one of many games that inspired us to make Agents of Influence. This 15-30min game uses inoculation theory, asking you to take the role of a fake news-monger who scores points by attracting followers with false content. Check it out getbadnews.com/#intro

Today's highlight is @TinEye : Changing the world of image search using computer vision and image recognition. And, can be added as a Chrome extension! tineye.com/?mobile=0
