Shi Shi's Adventure is a cooperative game that raises awareness about marine pollution and wildlife conservation through the journey of Shi Shi, an endangered green sea turtle who washed ashore near Seattle in 2021. Set in Washington State's coastal waters, the game challenges players to help the turtle survive by eating seagrass for energy and avoiding ocean trash, simulating the real-life conditions faced by sea turtles.

This immersive experience is enhanced by an engaging, tactile interaction, where players interact through a turtle-shaped steering wheel and rowing mechanism.
