HR Nightmare
Metaverse Experience
THE CHALLENGE: Create the world’s first HR Metaverse experience to tour through 6 major cities in the US and give thousands of People Ops and Human Resources their first exposure to Virtual Reality ever.
I was tasked with everything: developing the original concept, creating all story and game elements, scripting dialogue, hiring the creative team to build out and publish the experience, recording voiceover, and designing assets for the in-person tour.
HR Meets VR
THE SOLUTION: Simple, fun, and full of jokes just for People Ops.
Considering this would be many HR pros’ first virtual reality experience, we designed the game to be simple, short, and fun, with industry in-jokes and weapons like a pineapple-adorned battle axe called “vacation time.”
Virtual Game,
Real Smiles
THE RESULT: Unbridled success. Every person who played HR Nightmare had a moment where they smiled, laughed, or shrieked—and most of the time all three.
Not only did we introduce hundreds of people to a technology that will give them a leg up in discussing future endeavors like virtual training, but we did it in a highly memorable, emotionally engaging way.
