The Trolley Problem Game

The Trolley Problem Game presents more than 300 decisions based on the classic Trolley Problem. The scenarios span moral dilemmas, educational questions and problems intended simply for fun, from whether to sacrifice one person to save five to whether to spare the Library of Alexandria at the cost of everything written on Wikipedia. Each decision takes around 45 seconds, for about 4 hours of gameplay, or longer if you read the scenarios in detail.
