Escape from Drugs Land

I attended the media preview of the Anti-Drug launch by Singapore Central Narcotics Bureau and it was announced that there will be 3 games that will be launched on 3 respective months (Dec 2011, Jan 2012 and Feb 2012).

In the month of February, there will be the launch of the game-"Escape From Drugs Land!" The Anti-Drug Online Gaming Competition will be from December 2011 to February 2012. The target audience are youths from 13-25 years old and it is through these online games that The National Council Against Drug Abuse and Central Narcotics Bureau wish to highlight the harmful effects of drug abuse. For those playing the games, there are prizes to be won! iPad 2 and Sentosa  packages to be won! I had the privilege of playing the game and I definitely feel enriched by all the knowledge about drugs and its harmful effects. I plan to recommend all my friends to play the game with the hope of winning some prizes and not forgetting educating them the harmful effects of drugs.  In the game, Escape from Drugs Land, the player begins his journey on a game board, where the dice determines the number of steps he can take each time. On every square is a quiz, drug information, refusal tip, word search puzzle, or mini game. The player has to complete the board in the shortest time possible and his timing will be converted into a score. In line with the theme ‘Life Does Not Rewind’, all games do not have the ‘undo’ function such that the player cannot go back to the previous step and can only advance. In Escape from Drugs Land, the player cannot move backwards on the game board. So go on and spread the word for the whole month of February! The flash games will be available on www.facebook.com/lifedoesnotrewind. Top scorer will win prizes every week. Happy Lunar New Year and my birthday's in February too! :)
