Gatekeeper
A downloadable game
Every movement has its gatekeepers. You are the last line of defence at Africa's biggest gaming trade fair. Your job is simple:
- Verify passes,
- Scan QR codes,
- Programme RFID passes,
- and decide who gets in.
Some attendees are exactly who they say they are. Others will lie, forge, and charm their way past every check but one.
"Yours".
── HOW TO PLAY ──
- Each attendee approaches your desk with a pass.
- Scan their QR code to check it against the database.
- Verify their details. Approve, refer, or deny.
- For unregistered attendees, process their ticket
- purchase and programme their RFID pass on the spot.
- Miss too many fraudsters. Let the wrong people in.
- Deny the right ones.
Your reputation and the integrity of the event pay the price.
