Flag Quest

Flag Quest is a rogue like game created to spread awareness of LGBTQ+ identities by integrating the elements of LGBTQ+ flags into fun puzzles. As the game’s player, you wander through the dark, navigating around or overcoming obstacles to collect the different colors of your identity. As you collect each flag, you’ll learn more about the history of the flag and the identity that it represents.
