I've been making an experimental browser game on the topic of conspiracy beliefs and how they arise - would love to know what you think :) The underlying model is a belief network, though for the purpose of gameplay not strictly Bayesian. Your goal is to convince the main character the world is ruled by lizards.

(Note: Although I’m only here to test the game, I’m doing so as an academic researcher so have to disclose that I may write a summary of responses, and record clicks on the game, as anyone else testing their game would. I won’t record usernames or quote anyone directly. If you're not ok with that, please say so, otherwise commenting implies you consent. Full details linked from the title screen.)
