Many parents are worrying about the exposure of their children to violent video games. Meanwhile a group of proactive game designers hope to counteract some of the negative attention heaped onto video games by creating games that aim to raise awareness of the world’s poverty stricken.  Educational titles like “Darfur is Dying” and “PeaceMaker” show a different side of gaming, one on display at the third annual Games for Change conference held in New York recently. More than 200 people participated in this year’s conference, as industry interest has expanded. The campaign is showing a sign of success, as one of the free educational games has had more than 2 million downloads to date.
