You read it right. The rainforest is being destroyed at such an alarming rate that there is now propaganda games to fight its destruction. Ok..
“The game presents a very serious issue in an interactive way so that players want to take action to stop the carve-up of the Congo rainforest,” said Helen Brownstone, Head of Fundraising and Communications at the Rainforest Foundation.
The Rainforest Foundation has created a freeware game that allows you to stop the logging of the Congolese rainforest. The same place that the Michael Crichton book, Congo took place in. Here is the link: Congo Jones. No word if the Chinese kid from Goonies will make a cameo.
The concept just makes me laugh, but the game is almost unplayable
If I wanna destroy a tree to make one toothpick, that’s my prerogative.
And the only way I am going to play any Congo game is if I get to control Amy, pretty Amy.
