Darfur Is Dying

1. What did you learn about Darfur by playing the game Darfur is Dying? That Darfur needs food and water cause the soldiers always keep taking it and they can not get caught or else they will take his food and water and take him/her.
2. In the game Darfur is Dying, you can choose to forage for water and use different characters. Are there differences in the characters? Why did the game designers make the characters have different abilities? Does this tell you anything about what is happening in real life? Yes because the older you get the slower you get the younger you get the faster you are. 3. Another part of the game is to maintain camp. Do you think this was just for fun or was there another reason this is included in the game? I think its here to show what these people had to go through and the problems of surviving.
4. The game also includes ways do things like write a letter to the president or share the game on facebook? Why do you think this is? because if the presisdent heres about it he will proly do something about it
5. Did playing the game inspire you to learn more about Darfur or to do something to help? Why? Get more into it because I feel bad for them.

Why did he have to die he could of made the Internet faster then before.
