IO4: Online Simulation Game ODISSEU presents a game in the form of an interactive storytelling experience for secondary students. The game follows a young person’s journey from oppression in their home country to exile in a country of asylum. The story aims to increase understanding and raise awareness of refugee issues amongst secondary school students while developing life skills.
