THE EDUCATIONAL CONCEPT OF THE GAME
Potato Pirates: Enter The Spudnet is much more than just a game, it is a really useful tool to introduce cyber security and cyber awareness in schools and organizations.
The mechanics of the game reflects the workings of modern computer network. With the game board, one can visualise data propagation on the internet and all the cyber attacks which are possible.
Here's an analogy of what happens when you perform a search on Google:
You (the Client), puts in a request (a Spudnet Order) to Google’s server (Warehouse). The server then dispatches the data packets (Ships), hopping through multiple routes (Nodes) to reach you.

Basic cyber awareness and cyber hygiene is extremely important to prevent individuals and organisations from becoming victims of cyber crimes. Practical knowledge of cyber wellness improve our ability to protect ourselves now on the internet.
