Stuck in a Dark Place: A Serious Game About Consent
Stuck in a Dark Place is an educational game developed by THE JENNIFER ANN CRECENTE MEMORIAL GROUP INC. It aims to shed light on the important issue of consent by exploring its meaning and the consequences of its absence.
The game consists of eight chapters, each addressing a different aspect of consent. It covers scenarios such as unwanted touching, exhibitionism, intoxication, marital rape, underage or statutory rape, workplace sexual harassment, and the distribution of nonconsensual sexually explicit imagery. By presenting these scenarios in a storyline format, Stuck in a Dark Place offers players a comprehensive understanding of the topic.
One notable feature of Stuck in a Dark Place is the Lesson Mode, which allows users to select specific chapters for classroom discussions. This makes it a valuable tool for educators looking to facilitate conversations about consent in an educational setting.
It is important to note that the game includes content that may be distressing, including scenarios of non-consensual sexual activity. However, players have the option to use the CONTENT WARNING setting to bypass some of the more troubling content.
Stuck in a Dark Place is part of the Gaming Against Violence program by Jennifer Ann's Group, a nonprofit charity. Since 2008, Jennifer Ann's Group has been using video games as a means to engage, educate, and empower young people on various serious issues affecting adolescents. The program has been proven to effectively change unhealthy attitudes and beliefs.
