Migrant Worker Life is a board game designed for Taiwanese people who want to know more about the country’s 680,000-strong foreign workforce.
The role-playing game allows participants to step into the shoes of a real migrant worker and follow their story, from leaving home, adapting to their new working environment, facing cultural conflicts, and potentially enduring unpleasant labor disputes.
The game’s creators say they want to help people understand and empathize with migrant workers as many Taiwanese are not aware of the full spectrum of issues they face.
