I’m putting together some ideas for an article on game themes. It’s mostly about games which encourage people to think more deeply about what’s going on in the world.

One game which sprang to mind was Flash Point. It’s a co-operative game where the players are firefighters and the board is the floor plan of a house. I’ve played a fair amount of Flash Point, and every time I’ve been reminded to check the batteries in my smoke alarms.

Anyway, I started doodling, and this was the result.
