Food Force

So the United Nations World Food Programme created a video game, probably after the popularity of "America's Army," to promote the allocation and distribution of food throughout the world. The Game is called "Food Force" and is a six-mission game, the object of the game is to get a high score which you can submit to the website for publishing. The game in and of itself is very easy to play and takes little more than half an hour to complete, you cannot lose at the game, only attain a low score. It's an interesting idea, although the game itself is almost too educational and lacking in actual action.

A list of the six missions:
Air Surveillance
Pilot a helicopter over a crisis zone in Sheylan to locate the hungry.
Energy Pacs
Within your budget, create a good balanced diet for the local population in Sheylan.
Air Drop
Drop food from the air if at first you lack cheaper routes into Sheylan.
Locate and Dispatch
Buy food and transport it to Sheylan as quickly and cheaply as you can.
Food Run
Guide a convoy of trucks safely to a WFP feeding centre in Sheylan. The trip won't be easy.
Future Farming
Distribute food aid within a Sheylanese community to help the residents rebuild.


So if you wanna play, here's the linky:
