Gamification Storyline
KAOS is an up-and-coming German rock band with a bright future. But just two weeks out from the gig of a lifetime—opening for the mega-famous Red Hot Chilly Fries—the band starts to have some serious internal problems. If they can’t properly address them, the big show, as well as their promising future, might be in jeopardy.
It’s up to Martin, the band’s manager, to step in and mediate the group’s conflicts. Their success will come down to his ability to correctly approach the issues and apply the right conflict resolution techniques.
KAOS is currently available in the following languages: English, German, French, and Spanish.
