Abstract

This project is composed of two video games that look at multiple facets of the company Amazon through a critical lens. Fulfillment explores the working conditions of Amazon Fulfillment Centers through play. Amazon Invazion provides a critical look at the company from a consumer perspective, showcasing some of the many acquisitions made by Amazon from 1994-2018. Both games prompt the player to consider their own participation in the company’s growth.
