HIDDEN and Defence Collective Singapore have unveiled a new interactive game, Escape Quest: Operation Broken Oath, to coincide with Total Defence Day on 15 February. This innovative game, available at the Singapore Discovery Centre, aims to enhance national security awareness by immersing players in a simulated national crisis where they must make strategic decisions to protect the nation.
The game utilises an AI chatbot, Void Deck Cat, to guide players through the experience, which can be accessed via the WhatsApp chat application on any mobile device, eliminating the need for additional downloads. The initiative is designed to engage Singaporeans of all ages in national defence, encouraging them to think critically and act as stewards of security.
Lim Yee Hung, Group Chief Executive of HIDDEN, stated, “Escape Quest: Operation Broken Oath is more than just a game. It is an interactive learning experience that empowers individuals to think critically about national security and the vital role that each of us plays in keeping Singapore safe.”
Geraldine Loh, Deputy Director Programmes Cluster Head for Defence Collective Singapore, expressed enthusiasm for the collaboration, saying, “Through this initiative, we hope to inspire a culture of security mindfulness and proactive engagement where every Singaporean can play a part in making Singapore stronger.”
Tickets for the game start at S$20 per player, making it an ideal activity for corporate team-building, school groups, and anyone seeking a unique interactive adventure. With plans to expand the programme to the Singapore Navy Museum and Singapore Air Force Museum, this initiative marks a significant step in promoting national education through gamified learning.
