Coyote
A serious game about smuggling people from south of the border to the “Safehouse”. Players become smugglers and help their braceros across, with death and the border patrol always in play.

The game forces hard decisions: run from the border patrol, or save the people you are smuggling.
I made it alone, from the game design to the wooden board, in Tracy Fullerton’s game design class at the University of Southern California, which took us through the whole game design process.
