I remember a time when facebook was to connect with friends not to play “social”games. The latest game I have heard of,is a recycling game created by Greenopolis,a company founded to reward the population for recycling.
In the game,called oceanopolis,the user is trapped on an island paradise and must collect and turn in recyclables on the island. As they collect items the user is educated about recycling,earns points and can purchase items.
I tried the game for a few minutes and found it even less appealing than most regular games of this type. Where are these recyclables coming from? Are they washing up on shore perfectly intact? Someone should find who is dumping all this trash into the ocean and jail them. Seriously why am I going around an island clicking my mouse randomly on magically appearing item?
Perhaps some will use the game for entertainment,but I suspect that people actually using the game will be doing so to collect greenopolis points. These points are reedemable for a variety of discounts or coupons from restaurants,theaters and retail establishments.
Have you tried the game? Do you like it? Let me know.
