I built this educational game to help people identify and understand dark patterns in digital products. It features 10 interactive scenarios based on real-world examples.

The game includes:

• Interactive pattern recognition scenarios • Explanations of psychological principles • Simulated real-world examples with guided feedback

Built with Next.js, TypeScript, and Tailwind.

I'd especially appreciate feedback on the educational approach and scenario design.

Also, for some reason, hogs 100% CPU recursing like hell between two methods:

That game really is the final boss. I’ll dig into the recursion issue and get it fixed - Appreciate you taking the time to flag it!
