Summary
Around 10% of French schoolchildren experience harassment at school or online, leading to stress, depression, and absenteeism. To address this, the educational game Stop à la violence! was created to raise awareness and support teachers. Players investigate three student cases by gathering clues and interacting with peers. Each story ends with a video, quiz, and advice on tackling harassment. Developed by Tralalere, known for games like 2025 Ex Machina, the game effectively builds empathy but is brief and best used as a classroom tool followed by discussion. Despite its simplicity, it remains a valuable resource for middle school education.
