Plato's Dilemma

Plato’s Dilemma is a serious game blending hidden roles, resource management, and ethical debate. Set in a futuristic cyberpunk universe where Greek mythology meets artificial intelligence, players embody mortals inhabited by Olympians, Titans, or legendary humans seated on the board of Hésiodis Global Corporation. Their goal: decide the future of AI, shape society, and determine who will dominate the coming era. Each game round revolves around debating and voting on dilemmas drawn from real-world issues such as AI in healthcare, surveillance, automation, or the environment. Every choice impacts two global indicators — AI prevalence and corporate growth — with various endgame conditions tied to those. The game offers cooperative and competitive modes for 2 to 12 players and up to 36 in multi-table format. Designed for both entertainment and educational contexts, Plato’s Dilemma is an engaging tool for critical thinking, ethical awareness, and group decision-making. —description from the designer
