Fake News Detective (In Space)

Fake News Detective (In Space) is an educational point-and-click puzzle game set on the planet Shrim. Its residents need help judging online articles, and each level asks you to investigate an uncertain piece of reporting. Use the game’s web search, reverse image search, source links, AI checker, and warning-sign checklist to gather evidence before deciding whether an article is trustworthy. The project began at the Digiwise GameJam in Leipzig and remains in development; the available release is presented as a demo. English and German are listed as supported languages.

Launch the browser player and read the article presented in a level. Explore the investigation tools, compare the evidence with the checklist, and make your final judgment about the article.

Mouse — point and click to use the interface and investigation tools

Keep notes on claims and the evidence you find. Compare several clues before deciding; treat the AI checker as one tool in the investigation.
