ICED, the video game that also teaches about the injustices of current immigration policy in the U.S. just released the above trailer for the game. The game puts you in the shoes of immigrants faced with various circumstances and depicts just how hard it is to live day to day.

Last week I wrote about ICED, a video game being put out by the human rights organization Breakthrough!
After to listening to an interview this morning with one of the creators of the game and some sound clips of the game, I think the game has some positive social potential, especially with otherwise unpolitical youth.

Don’t Get ICED!

6 Aug 2007Political awareness through a video game? That seems to be part of the idea behind ICED!, a video game that allows player to roleplay and be put in the shoes of people who lose their student visas and others detained by the Department of Homeland Security.
“The game allows you to get into the body of a person, so you can experience what they are going through. There are very few opportunities to get that perspective,” said Mallika Dutt, head of the nonprofit Breakthrough, which produced the game and uses new media to highlight social issues around the world.
