| An [[:IFComp 2021]] game, [[https://ifdb.org/viewgame?id=w7gvrlhg4s9e757j|IFDB]]. Definitely captured some of the weirdness of being a social media moderator forced to comply with weird policies, and gives a voyeuristic (and explorable) view into the uncomfortable slice of life after a person's death. In the end I decided not to enforce the policy, and there wasn't any consequence for this. The group chat session near the end was drawn out and my interest sort of dropped. I'd be shocked if this sort of moderator-initiated live group chat is how any large site is handling this today, and I didn't feel like I got additional insight into the characters - I just got to watch them be uncomfortable and cagey. | An [[IFComp]] 2021 game, [[https://ifdb.org/viewgame?id=w7gvrlhg4s9e757j|IFDB]].
