[V.] The situations involved

Below are a list of situations where rape can occur on college campuses based on research throughout various websites.

1. Date rape [1] - Noted as the most common, yet unreported situation of rape, the female is taken out on a date, where she is either drugged or forced to have sex afterward.

2. Acquaintance rape [2] - Acquaintance rape refers to a rape by a person who you somewhat know either from a class or through a friend who uses some type of force or drug to rape a victim.

3. Party rape [3] - Women are highly intoxicated at a party, and are easily coerced into sexual situations. With coercion, they are easily manipulated or restrained.

4. Other situations [4] - Other information about rapes and sexual violence.

Situations for games?

Bystander view. Respect level. Presented with different situations. How you react changes respect level and the outcome to the victim etc.

Here's a short overview.

My game idea:

____________________________________________________________________



Characters: Player 1 (the bystander)

Levels: Parties, Parking lots, dorm rooms, questions presented [a classroom set-up?]

Interaction: Player moves throughout situations with a respect bar or counter in a corner. The Respect bar goes up or down based on the player's reaction to situations. For example, actual scenarios are presented where the bystander must choose whether they should step in. Some do not require the player to step in, others do. If the bystander steps in too often, they may lose respect. Also, there are questions presented where the player must decide if what is presented is a rape or sexual assault. Having a grasp on this information is crucial, and not knowing the limitations of what rape is may lead to losing respect.

How to win: 20-30 questions and interactions, where the bystander's level is graded at the end. A high score may be 97% respected, etc.
