Getting Into The Game

I’ve been telling people about the World Without Oil game and they want to take a look. Here’s how I tell people to get into the game:
First, go here to get an explanation of what’s going on. If you reach the end and are still bamboozled, don’t hesitate to click the link in the last line.
Second, go to the Manifesto. You’ll meet the characters that are running the website and get a real flavor for the game. You can then appreciate their posts on their community blog.
Third, go to the World Without Oil Weekly Page (today, it’s Week 13). Look at the price for fuel, read the Week’s News Report, then click on the boxes off to the left to experience what people are saying. Like this response by Anda to the gamemaking challenge by Avantgame.
Fourth, if you can spare the time, don’t miss the Kalwithoutoil videos or the Rainey/Bodi/Anna podcasts.
