dcterms.abstractThis paper details our design process for ā€œGrassroots: Unite, Reclaim, Maintain,ā€ a location-based mobile game (LBMG) about fostering community through decolonial practices emphasizing mobility justice. Many mainstream LBMGs tend to reinforce a colonialist rhetoric through competitive gameplay based upon claiming and exploiting territories in the virtual world overlaid on the physical world. Through the ludic experience within the virtual world of ā€œGrassroots,ā€ we hope to encourage a new sense of connection, accessibility, and understanding of physical places.
