## What is Climate Trail & eBook?

Will You Survive The Climate Apocalypse? (Award Winner - Serious Play 2020)
Survive the climate apocalypse by journeying north to Canada.  In the tradition of the Oregon Trail, you’ll lead a band of survivors facing horrible heatwaves, superstorms, thirst, starvation, and yes … even dysentery.  Your decisions mean life or death for your party, and YOU.

"This is a challenging and moving game. It’s about time we had a game like this." - User Review

"This game is fun and teaches about the implications of climate change - we need more titles like this one out there!" - Lordanstein

“The Climate Trail is like the Oregon Trail set in a post-apocalyptic [world].” - GameFreaks.  

“A bleak look at what awaits us if we fail to address climate change.” GamesIndustry.Biz

The Climate Trail also includes a Climate eBook covering all aspects of Climate Change.  Use this as a portable reference on climate issues and sharpen your knowledge with a quick climate quiz.

“I know less about computer games than anyone alive, but here's one that's about 'climate refugees fleeing ever-worsening conditions after inaction on climate has rendered much of the USA (and the world) uninhabitable.' So, enjoy!” - Bill McKibbin, Founder 350.org

### 1/5 — Buggy app. Unprofessional developer.

*2022-11-03*

App is very buggy and promotes climate change catastrophism . Developer is rude, unprofessional, and authoritarian. It’s either his way or the highway.

Update: nearly two years later the developer proved my point by replying with, ” Climate Denialism inspired the game and is the reason I give it away. So thank you”

Developer appears to not understand the difference between “catastrophist” and “denier.”

**Developer response:** Sorry for the prior response.  As with the classic film, "On The Beach" (post nuclear war) ... The Climate Trail presents a worst case scenerio for climate change. It's inspired by the short story  "A Full Life" (MIT Press).  Yes, it's meant to frighten people and many of the scenarios have occurred, but not yet on the scale of the game's story.  The eBook is accurate to current climate studies.

### 5/5 — Gerbil

*2022-01-21*

Malsbary love this

### 5/5 — Game changed a lot since 2018

*2020-10-02*

Love it better now, good game guys!

### 2/5 — Multi langue

*2020-07-06*

french french french français français français we want application in french

### 3/5 — Good game but crashes & unplayable

*2020-06-06*

Can’t finish the game. I get to an abandoned truck then the next frame gives me a bunch of error codes.

**Developer response:** We've tried to reproduce this issue with no success.  If it ever happens again, please send a screenshot.  Sorry about this.

### 5/5 — Harder (& more sobering) than I thought

*2020-01-17*

Fantastic idea & so well done. 
I thought I’d choose the easiest level & choose a very conservative method of gameplay but I only lasted 25 days! Scary how this is shaping up to be our future if governments don’t #ActNow. Well worth sharing & competing with your friends. Keep Up the good work!

### 3/5 — Not a whole lot to it.

*2019-10-31*

The only events are going to new towns, heatwaves, a random child, collecting rainwater and storms. And if anyone is going to die it is GOING TO BE Kate.

**Developer response:** We added a hidden object game to finding supplies as well as other events.

### 2/5 — Not a realistic at all!

*2019-10-30*

The developers of this game have never been outside in their lives. They know nothing about survival and this game is a pure lie to any child playing it.  Yeah it’s good to make kids aware but this game is pure BS.  Try again and be more real about what your are trying to get across.

### 5/5 — 5 ⭐️

*2019-10-26*

For trying to do something about it, which is more than most of us will ever be doing!

### 5/5 — Deeply depressing

*2019-10-04*

Deeply depressing
