I love games and I love to help people so when I read that there is a downloadable PC game that has been specifically made to raise money for the Starlight Starbright Children’s Foundation, I just had to post about it here.
The game itself looks very colourful and child friendly from the little I’ve so far seen of it, and it’s a side-scrolling platform style that old-school gamers will remember fondly. The full price is $19.95, and $15 (75%) goes straight to the charity. Another draw to this is the celebrity voice-over cast including Jamie Lee Curtis, William Shatner and Dave Thomas, amongst others.
I have to admit that I had never heard of the charity before, although I will assume that is because it’s based in the US. For those who haven’t heard about Starlight Starbright, it is a foundation for seriously ill children – the aim is to take their mind away from their illness with fun activities, as well as letting them and their families meet others going through the same situation. I can’t do the charity enough justice with my short description but I definitely think it’s a worthwhile cause, and I hope the game helps to raise awareness as well as money.
If you are still interested in finding out more about this game I’ve included a short introduction video.
I just watched the video and I think even I could manage playing this game.
Great Charity!
Hehe maybe so, but it is a PC game.
Well, I knew there would be some down side to it. *lol*
