A video game, an ultimate test! With " One Leaves »No doubt, we will have to survive a terrible scourge: smoking. Available for free on the Xbox One console and on PC (Windows 10), One Leaves is arguably the most surprising initiative by the US Health Authority (FDA) to fight smoking.
THE “REAL COST”: 3 IN FOUR ADOLESCENTS THINK THEY WILL STOP SMOKING AND DON'T!
Imagined by the FDA, the American health authority, One Leaves is a video game that targets potential smokers by showing them the dangers of tobacco, the risks they face. The players are in a kind of hangar with several other people. Only 1 character on 4 can get out of there unscathed. A figure related to US statistics. The 3 / 4 students who start smoking in the United States continue when they are adults.
This game can reach a multitude of young players. The atmosphere is rather raw, even violent ... The idea is to spare nothing to those who might be tempted by smoking, while the proportion of teenagers smokers is increasingly important. Players in One Leaves will see their bodies degrade little by little, whether it's in the vision or the lungs.
So useful or not? Difficult, for now, to judge its future effectiveness. However, the game produced by Oath and developed by Wahoo Studios is completely free everyone can get their own idea by trying the experience!
