About That Forest is a web-based role-playing simulation game that takes place in a forest where players are members of a community jointly managing their forest. Players try to achieve their goals, facing many challenges, interacting with the decisions made by other people living in the forest and an uncertain environment. Participants make decisions that affect the shared common good of their community. They quickly learn “how incentives, institutions, moral norms and worldviews sustain the common good… or lead to tragedy.”
