HONEYMOON is an award-winning video game about healthy dating relationships created to help young people recognize what constitutes healthy or unhealthy relationships. In HONEYMOON the player experiences their "first crush" as they guide their on-screen character through the honeymoon phase of a new dating relationship. HONEYMOON offers discovery and experiential learning; by exploring different decisions made in the game players will experience different outcomes. Adolescents seeking to better understand dating relationships can play HONEYMOON to learn for themselves how the story's outcome changes based on their decisions. Parents seeking an effective approach to talking with their children about dating relationships can play HONEYMOON and ask their children to play it as well. Afterwards, they can then have a productive conversation about issues raised in the game. Educators seeking an effective and affordable classroom resource to teach students about healthy relationships or to help prevent teen dating violence can use HONEYMOON in the classroom in conjunction with lesson plans designed for classroom use. HONEYMOON: The Game includes the option to select the episode of their choosing to allow classrooms to focus on a specific aspect of the game. Please note however that it is highly advised that the entire game be played through in one sitting initially in order to gain the full benefit from HONEYMOON's narrative. HONEYMOON has several different endings - can you see how your decisions impact the outcome? Of note: In HONEYMOON the player selects a gender for their character (male or female) as well as the gender of their crush, a helpful reminder that dating abuse can affect anybody regardless of gender or sexual orientation.
