G4C2011 - Breakthrough: America 2049
- 1. AMERICA 2049
- 25. "America 2049" is a testament to how Facebook gaming has expanded far beyond the scope of watering your neighbors’ corn crops on "FarmVille.” -- The Huffington Post "Set in a balkanized, alt-reality USA splintered beyond...by fear, bias and paranoia, all the missions will be based on real-world, present-day hot-button issues like sex trafficking, immigration and labor...[T]he timing may be right to click into the world of 2049 and absorb its messages. You might be moved into acting on or learning about an important cause. And that's okay, because your farm or vendetta can wait. ” -- TIME “ America 2049, a new Facebook game tackling racial profiling, immigration, sex trafficking, and more...[leads] you to connect the past to dystopic future-with the hopes of changing our present... While the gameplay is simple, there's a rich, interactive story beneath. But the most innovative part of the game...is the social justice message.” -- Bitch Magazine “ America 2049,' in other words, hits that sweet spot where sci-fi nerd-dom and social activism meet: the dystopian future genre. Don't want things to get that bad later? Then fix things now." -- Fast Company “ When was the last time you played a really engrossing video game that didn't involve shooting zombies or controlling irrationally angry birds? Something that took a little more brainpower, with codes, secret videos, and Easter Eggs located both on the web and real life? Now, when was the last time you heard about one of these games existing on Facebook? Probably never, which is what makes 'America 2049' such a compelling experience. ” -- Salon “‘ America 2049’ is activism as entertainment, and education as political thriller.” -- Kotaku
