My game idea (post-apocalyptic Oregon Trail set in 1983) got "Honorable mention" in that Games for Change contest:http://www.gamesforchange.org/2015/12/winner-of-10000-prize-announced-inn-square-game-design-challenge/ …
I still think it is a good idea as a way to teach about the effects of nuclear war, and may pursue it independently. It is the anti-Fallout.

(I am not opposed to the fun of the Fallout games, of course. They just have zero relationship whatsoever with actual nuclear war.)

@wellerstein Fallout is retrofuturistic and thus not so realistic. And what do you mean Anti-fallout, just been curious. -
@zeziberto They are retrofuturistic, but also sci-fi — they don't exist in the same physical universe as us, in terms of physics or biology.

@wellerstein - have you seen This War of Mine? Similar concept. -
@ralasdair That's interesting. This would be less about threat of immediate death — more about navigating through disorder.
