A team of Harvey Mudd College students has developed a multiplayer strategy video game designed to teach players about cropland repurposing in California's Central Valley. The game, “Common Ground,” was completed through Harvey Mudd's Clinic Program in partnership with the Union of Concerned Scientists, which publicly released the game on its website in September.

Team members Laura Vairus ’26, Nicole Kerschner ’26, Vibhu Krishnan ’26, Mia Mirabelli ’26 and Ria Rajasekar ’26 worked with their advisor HMC climate and computer science professor Lynn Kirabo over the 2025–2026 academic year to translate cropland-transition science into game mechanics.
