Part flash-mob. Part Hunger-Games. Part Twitter-pocalypse. Part digital feeding frenzy. Part micro-MOOC. Part giant game of digital tag.  #TvsZ is played across Twitter and other digital platforms. It is designed to demonstrate virtual community, to teach new media literacy, and to facilitate a collaborative narrative adventure.
