Promqueen

Promqueen is a satirical life simulator letting you be a girl in her late teens. To succeed, you must experience an everyday life where managing relations, keeping boyfriends at bay, sneaking in through the window and climbing the social ladders are important matters. The goal of the game is to become Promqueen, but it is a long hard road getting there…

The game was nominated for “Best E-content” at the World Summit Awards 2005, and won “Best Game Concept” at the Swedish Game Awards that same year (team profile).

It got picked up by commercial interests and saw a limited release. Old old old as it may be promqueen.se is still online, and there’s even a dead and buried development diary from the teams’ second year with the project. 🙂

The students creating this game later went on to form Digital Agitation.
