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.

On Question 3 (Misdirection)—why is clicking “no thanks, I prefer a limited experience” the wrong answer? Why should I click the stuff I don’t want just in order to “learn about it”?
