Finally – somebody figured out how to get kids’ (??) attention! You get to be a boy or girl, chase a boy or girl –

To get points you collect condoms. To lose points you drink alcohol or bump into nuns, monks or dogs! (what will the church say about that??!!) Is this what they mean by ‘cybersex’?

Online Safe Sex Game Attracts 125,000



Reuters - July 08, 2002 02:33 PM ET



BARCELONA (Reuters Health) - An online safe sex game featuring saucy sound effects and street slang has introduced more than tens of thousands of young people to safe sex facts that they might otherwise be unaware of, a British charity said on Monday.



In www.SuperShagLand.com, a parody of Nintendo's hit Super Mario Brothers, an intrepid man or woman chases the boy or girl of their dreams, gaining points for each condom they gather and losing points for drinking alcohol or bumping into monks, nuns or dogs.



Reaching the end of the game before the climaxometer falls from Sting to Boris Becker entitles players to a cartoon moment of passion before offering them a chance to browse facts about safe sex.



K-Generation, the charity that developed the site, released a report at the International AIDS Conference showing that 125,000 people had accessed the site since it was launched on World AIDS Day in November 2001.



The report shows that 50% of first-time users visited the safe sex information section of the site, staying for about 3 minutes on average.



K-Generation's founder, Neil Almond, told Reuters Health that the online format got safe sex messages through to young people who weren't listening to campaigns by government and others.



"Only 12% of people who visit the site think that government education measures are working. They're not effective with young people," he said.



"The game is far more successful than our wildest hopes," he added. "These results clearly show that the right medium can really help get safe sex messages to young people."



Forty-eight percent of users said they would engage in difficult issues--like AIDS or drug use--online that they would avoid in "real life."



"And the beauty of this sort of work is that it's viral," Almond said, saying that 90% of users said they would recommend the site to their friends.



Stephen Twigg, UK minister for Young People and Learning, welcomed the report.



"This game is first for safe sex education. It shows how new media, and a fun approach, can reach young audiences," he said.



"Governments around the world can never stay still on a subject as important as HIV/AIDS, and this game offers a way forward."
