Abstract. Water-related conflicts in river catchments occur due to both internal and external pressures that affect catchment water availability. Lack of shared understanding by stakeholders increase the complexity human-water issues at scale. Among a range participatory approaches, development use serious games gained prominence as tool stimulate discussion reflection among about sustainable resource collective action. This study designed implemented ENGAGE game (Exploring New Gaming Approach Guide Enlighten), mimics dynamics observed during dry season upper Ewaso Ng’iro catchment, North West Mount Kenya. The purpose this was explore potential role gaming subsequent steps strengthening stakeholder engagement (agenda setting, understanding, commitment action, means implementation) toward addressing complex human-water-related challenges We assessed type decisions made gameplay, communication dynamics, active participation, implication on results three sessions show raised awareness provided recognizable hydro-logic background while guiding community discussions implementable decisions. revealed increasing knowledge gain, plural pronouns, decreasing individual interests participants. presents important implications for creating basis management can inform policies modification process behind allocation rules catchment.

This article explores the role of digital games as virtual laboratories for addressing ecological and climate change challenges. It begins by examining intersection citizen science gaming, specifically initiatives that have enabled global communities to contribute ecosystem preservation efforts through collaborative data collection, analysis, problem-solving been vital monitoring marine habitats. Building upon these developments, we will explore how share parallels with mesocosms, attempting render Earth systems phenomena legible while simultaneously contributing contemporary debates surrounding biodiversity, species loss, change. Notably, gameworlds expanded their scope beyond simple simulations, incorporating intricate models alongside social, political, historical elements craft nuanced, evolving environments attempt reflect fragile interconnection on a planetary scale.
