Games you can play that no-one can disapprove of!

I should probably make it clear that I don't have time to make games myself, being far too busy updating information about safer sex, chasing young MPs around asking for their opinions and sifting the things you need to know out of council reports...

However, other people have the time, and this is the internet, so I can link to them! These are all games that have some sort of educational, political or lifeskills content, so if anyone tries to give you a hard time for playing them, remember:

It's educational!

Climate Change and Environment Games

My Abodo allows you to make small changes around the house to save energy and improve your home's efficiency.

Gives you a cute little embed code for your blog afterwards!

Climate Challenge puts you in charge of making tough decisions to combat the effectes of Climate Change.

Can you remain in power and popular while helping your country survive climate disaster?

Democracy Games from Demgames

In Captain Campaign you can chose to support or oppose the building of a new road.

Once you've picked your side, you get to gather support, make arguments and see if you can persuade decision makers to see things your way.

In Councillor Quest 2, you experience being a Local Councillor for a day.

In the course of a day, your political decision-making skills are tested with five tasks.

Games about Health and Personal Safety

know your limitsKnow your limits is part of a hard-hitting NHS campaign, and this "night out" simulator is a harsh look at the consequences of binge drinking.

Can you avoid violence, accidents and sexual assault and get home safe?

Got any suggestions?
