 * Please read the WorkAdventure privacy policy and cookies policy, and only proceed if you agree with these terms.
 * All users should abide by the Code of Conduct for Wikimedia's Technical Spaces and the Friendly Space Policy.
 * We recommend participants choose usernames or nicknames over real names, as virtual spaces are public.

 * Please do not record other people's audio or video during this event.

Entering the game space:


 * 1) Enter the Hackathon game space.
 * 1) If you’re joining the map for the first time, enter a name. We suggest you use a username or a nick-name (not your full name).
 * 1) Select your avatar using arrows, or click "custom" to pick more possibilities.
 * 1) Optionally, give your browser permission to use the microphone and camera. This will allow you to enter video conference rooms.
 * 1) Enter the game-space. You can move by using the arrows on your keyboard or your fingers on mobile. You can move faster by pressing Shift at the same time.

Navigating the game space:

When you approach another avatar, a small video-chat will pop up. Throughout the platform, there are virtual rooms where sessions will take place which correspond to the session themes.

There are also two open hacking rooms, an Antarctic room, and a newcomers room, which are open for use at anytime.

The Help and Moderation room, at the entrance to the game space, will be staffed during core hours to answer questions. If you have urgent concerns, email the organizers. When you enter a room, you will join a Jitsi video conference.



Explore the map and discover the different features (for example: try to get close to one of the notice boards on the walls). You can use the map to chat with people, gather participants in one of the project rooms, or wander in the garden.
