| История | For April Fool’s Day, conservation charity Sea Shepherd France is targeting influencers who play “Dave the Diver” with a game called “The Final Boss” as part of a tongue-in-cheek campaign through socially-led creative agency We Are Social. In "The Final Boss," aspiring fishermen find themselves facing an unbeatable final boss: none other than Captain Paul Watson, the illustrious activist and founder of Sea Shepherd. To confront them with the consequences of their actions, he has emptied the ocean of all its fish. Dave The Diver is a video game that has been attracting millions of players for several months, who fish thousands of fish and species in-game every day, some of which are protected and threatened with extinction, in order to put them on the menu of their virtual sushi restaurants. Players must face a number of bosses who try to stop them, including ‘John Watson’, a thinly disguised parody of Sea Shepherd founder Paul Watson. Sea Shepherd France and We are Social have added a little joke to convey an important message: raising awareness among the gaming community - and more broadly the general public - about the disastrous consequences of poaching and overfishing on the ocean and to raise awareness about marine life conservation. |
