Arthur Almeida Santos creates game to explain MP-RJ functions

Arthur Almeida Santos, a 19-year-old university student and intern at the Rio de Janeiro Public Prosecutor's Office (MP-RJ), developed an interactive game to explain the agency's functions. The project was showcased at Rio Innovation Week, where it served as a centerpiece for the MP-RJ stand.

Santos, a student of Information Systems at the Federal University of the State of Rio de Janeiro (Unirio), proposed the game as a more engaging alternative to the organization's original plan for a standard quiz. The game requires participants to classify various public duties and identify which ones belong to the MP-RJ across different regions of the state. Players have 1 minute and 40 seconds to achieve a high score to win prizes.

The initiative received recognition from the MP-RJ team and Attorney General Antonio José Campos Moreira, highlighting the potential of gamification to increase public engagement and institutional transparency.
