This study is testing a game called Singularities to see if it can help young people reduce alcohol-related problems. Singularities is a web-based game with a discussion board and resources designed to teach coping skills, safe alcohol behaviors, and healthy internet use. We want to find out if playing Singularities helps reduce how often young people experience alcohol-related harms and use alcohol. We also want to see if it improves their protective behaviors, coping skills, and social media habits. You might be able to join if you are 14-18 years old, live in the U.S., can comfortably participate in English, have internet access, and have either tried alcohol or plan to in the next year. This study plans to include nearly 2000 participants.
