Pathways Paradox
A game about navigating the housing system
Pathways Paradox is a large-scale game about navigating the systems of housing, benefits, employment and support services for people experiencing homelessness.
The game helps players to understand the barriers in the system, and to reflect on how we might tackle them. It is designed to simulate the real-world challenges faced by individuals facing homelessness in securing both income and a home.
The game can be played with between 14 and 170+ players, with a session run in 90 minutes to two hours. It is an ideal game for including in a conference or event programme, in order to get participants moving around, talking to each, and reflecting on challenging issues.
The game creates an interactive, thought-provoking environment that encourages participants to step into the shoes of those navigating the complex systems of housing and employment.
