MTV has created a game and website in order to educate kids (at least, I'm assuming this is marketed to teens) about the situation in Darfur. Play the game here!
My initial reaction:
But, on the other hand, some might argue that if you can get the message out, then it doesn't matter how it gets out there. They might be right.
Update: For more online games focused on social issues check out Persuasive Games, a project started by Georgia Tech professor Ian Bogost. Professor Bogost has stated that he sees the games as interactive political cartoons, so that aren't really fun per se. However, I have to admit I was slightly entertained by "Bacteria Salad." - Greg
