3rd-world.jpgWho didn’t love Oregon Trail as a kid? The squirrel hunting, the covered wagon wandering, trying to cross rivers and not loose family members? Over at PlayGirlz they seem to have uncovered the African version. “Well think Oregon Trail but with lions, and famines the likes of which even early settlers would be appalled at, and you have 3rd World Farmer. Created as part of a student project at IT University in Copenhagen, Denmark, 3rd World Farmer challenges players to eek out a sustainable living in a locale rife with poverty and bloody conflict. Grow corn, diversify with chickens, and learn a bit about the troubles plaguing third world families (and countries).”
