The goal of this interactive web application is to raise awareness about electricity wastage in everyday households, particularly in the South African context where load shedding is a recurring issue. By educating users about the power consumption of various household electronic devices, the project aims to promote more responsible energy use. Through gamification and storytelling, the application seeks to instill lasting behavioral change that could ultimately contribute to reducing power demand and preserving the environment. # How to play Players begin the game in a dark, load-shedding-affected house where their cursor acts as a flashlight. As they explore different rooms—each styled with African-themed décor—they must locate and click on electronic devices hidden in the darkness. Each found device gradually restores light to the room, symbolizing energy savings. The game progresses through multiple rooms, with each discovery boosting the player’s score. At the end, players are shown their final score and can view or compete on a leaderboard, retry for a better score, or share the experience. This interactive format blends education with fun to maximize user engagement and awareness.
