1st Playable Productions

Happy 18th birthday to 1P today!! I think that means our company is old enough to drive and go off to college 😉. Nothing fancy planned for today, just toasting all of you who have been part of this adventure! 💕

Another game, perfect for older students, on the topic of va**ng and smoking prevention. Funded by CVS and led by Yale's play2PREVENT Lab at the Yale Center for Health & Learning Games, this game is set in a school, and has the students build their friendships, navigate peer pressure situations, and most importantly learn some facts about the health implications of va**ng. Was excited end of last year to hear that the Yale pilot last year showed great results for players' learning. Free on iTunes and Google Play, plus a html version for teachers to use with classes.
