The episode explores how Zoë's organization, Runa, uses these games as a testing ground (or prototype) for better ways to live and work together. Helping communities practice solving real-world problems in a low-stakes, imaginative environment. Using play to bridge gaps and build trust between players. Experimenting with reciprocity—moving away from traditional transactions and toward sustainable, community-led exchange.
