A video game to address nature-deficient?
Sony released anew Playstation game called “Flower,” which “explores the path of an urban flower that seeks to escape to the countryside.”
Click here for a video about the game.
Sony calls the game an “interactive poem, which uses abstract landscapes, and the flower is the gamer’s dream.” According to Wired, “Flower lets the player explore the dreams of city blooms trapped in urban decay, longing to caress the soft grasses of the countryside.”
Sony designed the game to be “attractive and meaningful” for adults, and wanted to make it simple and accessible. Players can control the path of the flower, and its pollination of the landscapes. “The game explores the relationship between cities and nature, the complexities of ecology.”
Has anyone played this game? What do you think?
