Fight interdimensional evil one moment and spread real-world kindness the next in the clever World Reborn. As a student at the futuristic university Pathways Institute, you’ll mingle with pals—and battle a corrupting force known as the Rot. When you’re not exploring the virtual campus and making new friends (or enemies), learn more about how the real world works—and why you’re such a vital part of it.

What we love: Saving a fantasy world through real-life change. To gain energy points needed for missions at Pathways, you’ll tackle training modules—bite-size guided lessons about real-world topics, like spotting misinformation online or learning how to talk to people who don’t share your beliefs.

Quick tip: The #CrisisAverted training module won’t just help your real-life active listening skills. It’ll also help you make more empathetic dialogue choices when talking to characters at Pathways.

Meet the creator: Wicked Saints Studios cofounders Alicia Clifton and Jessica Murrey dug into behavioral science to shape World Reborn’s story and characters. They then teamed up with partners like the Starlight Children’s Foundation and WNBA champ Aerial Powers to create the game’s training modules.
