According to the State Emergency Service, about 23% of Ukraine’s territory remains dangerous due to mines and ammunition, and demining will take decades. Despite awareness of the risks, more than half of teenagers behave recklessly, especially boys aged 14-17, who tend to underestimate the danger.

To convey this important message in an understandable way, the State Emergency Service, together with GSC Game World, has integrated the topic of mine threats into a virtual world familiar to gamers. According to the developers, the project should help save lives by replacing dry lectures with an immersive experience.
