It seems like I've been talking about this game everywhere for a long time, but I don't think I've said anything about it here. Persuasive Games has been working on a game about the politics of nutrition, called Fatworld. It's been funded by PBS and the iTVS, and it will be released this fall. The game is much larger than our usual fare. I've put up a simple preview page that describes more about the gameplay over on the Persuasive Games website.

This month's Wired magazine ran a page or so about the game in the magazine (p. 74), which is now also online. It's a nice summary of Fatworld and the studio's broader mission.
