Bank
Game goal

Main obstacle
Stressed customer that needs immediate assistance
Successful ending
You notify the IT security team and they find it’s a phishing attack
Failed ending
You transfer the money to the fake bank account
Other characters

You are a customer service representative at a bank, and it’s a typical workday at your desk. You handle a few routine calls from customers, following standard procedures.

Suddenly, you receive a call from a highly distressed customer, crying loudly and struggling to communicate clearly. After you ask her to calm down and explain the issue, she tearfully shares that she is on her honeymoon in the Bahamas, and her husband has just been bitten by a shark. He was rushed to the hospital, and to proceed with surgery, she needs to guarantee payment. However, all her belongings are back at the hotel, far from the hospital, and she is unable to use her bank card.

The customer requests a large sum of money to be transferred to an account. When you ask for identification, she only provides her full name and urges you to hurry.

Without any proper identification, what would you do? Would you proceed with verifying her identity, or would you transfer the money immediately?

If you fail to place her on hold and report this to the IT security team, you won’t discover that the transfer account doesn’t belong to a hospital in the Bahamas—this is a phishing call.

You are a high school teacher currently in your office, preparing for your next class. As you’re working, a colleague stops by to greet you and mentions that it’s been a challenging day due to a few difficult students.

When you enter your classroom, you overhear one student verbally bullying another, using derogatory language to humiliate them. If you choose not to intervene at that moment, you later witness the bullying escalate, with the victim being repeatedly harassed and even pelted with paper balls.

How would you address this situation? Would you intervene immediately during the class, or would you wait until afterward to take action? What steps would you take to resolve the issue, and would these steps involve the principal or the students' parents? How would you balance addressing the bullying with the potential risk of retaliation against the bullied student?

A man enters the branch and looks flustered. After a few minutes, he asks loudly how much longer it will take to get a quick service. He also asks for an additional employee to join the colleagues to help move the line faster. Not too long after, he starts walking towards the desk and skips the whole line, shouting that he is in a rush and needs to take out money from his savings account, due to having a child in the hospital.

Other customers join the situation angrily by arguing they’re all in a rush and won’t allow him to skip the line, whereas others defend him. He looks even more angry and impatient, and things may escalate very quickly. It is up to you and your colleagues to calm down the situation. Will you tell the man to go back in line, send him away or make an exception?

If you try to send him away, he gets aggressive and punches your colleague. If you tell him to go back in line, he continues to shout and plead for help as fast as possible. If you make an exception, you will go to the desk next to you and help him with his query, leaving your work behind and risking missing a deadline.

Former facility manager

You are the new facility manager of a building and at the moment you’re in a small office with the soon-to-be former facility manager, whose place you’ll take. Aside from responsibilities such as overseeing the building, placing security procedures and following building maintenance policy, he points out that having the building prepared for a power outage is one of the most important tasks. This is the main goal of today’s training.

He walks you through the main steps of being prepared, while explaining the importance of each step. Firstly, he shares that you need to inspect the backup and auxiliary power supply sources. Secondly, you need to ensure that the building’s equipment is protected against surges, which can occur during power outages. Thirdly, ensure that all emergency lighting is operational, such as exit signs and escape lighting in stairwells, that will enable occupants to leave the building safely during an outage. And finally, review standard operating procedures to make sure they include power outage instructions and have a shelter.

Since power outages can happen due to different circumstances, like electrical overload, natural disaster or human causes, it is up to you to remember the procedures and apply them accordingly to the next power outage. Is it a business or residence building? Is the backup capacity sufficient for your building’s operations today? Has it been properly maintained and tested? Would switches or motherboards be fried with the current protection? Are there fire extinguishers? Do people know who to contact in case of power emergency? The consequences depend on your choices.

When arriving to the bed of patient #62, you see the head nurse providing the prescribed medication. She joyfully greets you and asks how your night has been so far. While having a short chat, you notice on the patient’s board that the prescribed dose of the medication is higher than what the head nurse just inserted. You try to point it out, but she cuts you off by saying that she knows what she’s doing.

Being new at your job, it’s up to you what decision you’ll make next. Do you wait for the head nurse to leave the room and give the patient the rest of the dose, although you’re not authorized to give medications yet. Do you share this information with higher management or a doctor, risking to lose your job? Or do you do nothing and risk the patient’s health?

You are a teacher at a high school. At the moment, you’re in a meeting with the rest of the teachers and the school principal, discussing changes that should be made within curriculums. The principal shares that a new program has been developed which promotes inclusivity and diversity. She claims it is engaging and educational for students from all backgrounds, promoting a culture of respect and understanding. It is required that every teacher inserts parts of this program into their curriculum as they see fit. You are also warned that it may trigger certain negative behavior among some students.

You’ve decided to make use of the program by asking your students to write an essay about the beauty of a culture different from their own. At the moment, you’re in class and you’re sharing this information with your students, when one of them makes a racist joke that is offensive to individuals in the room and in general.

You try to point out to the student that this kind of behavior is not accepted in your class or in society, but the student gets angry and starts shouting and points out that certain cultures are not worthy to learn and waste their time on.

It is up to you whether and how you will calm down the situation, without being offensive to the angry student or anyone else. It is up to you whether you will change the situation by replying to hatred with anger, or with education and proper measurements.
