Inside the Haiti Earthquake

It is a completely different entry today from what we have been doing so far on the blog. Today, we turn our attention to an online game based on a real life event, Inside the Haiti Earthquake.

The game is only suitable for high level language learners and it is particularly attractive not only because of their high language content but also because its aim is to educate the player in real life skills as well as raising awareness in some important issues.  It is definitely worth a look into even if it’s to have fun and educate yourself.

Just a word or warning. You'll be exposed to lots of opportunities to develop your English, but also to real disturbing pictures. In this respect, Inside the Haiti Earthquake is not a game, it's life.
