Serious Policy Free Game Download

What's it about?

You've seen my Teen Cash Guide designed to help teenagers learn more about money.

Now educational software maker Playgen has produced a free game aimed at teaching young people about politics. The aim of the Serious Policy is to win funding for a new policy from the Treasury. To help you can get advice from MPs, including Tony Blair and Alistair Darling as well as Gordon Brown.

Why has Playgen done this?

According to the site the aim is to:
  • Demonstrate how political processes and decision making can be brought to life in a fun and interesting way through a virtual world
  • Highlight to players, whether they be citizens or policy makers, the importance of public engagement in the decision-making process
How do I download it?

Simply go to the Playgen website and follow the instructions.

What if I've got an issue with it?

The game's creators are keen to hear feedback about the game. If you've got something to say don't hold back. Let them know what you think via the feedback page.
