ORNAMA Raises Environmental Awareness
Orna, the fantasy RPG and GPS MMO by Northern Forge Studios, is launching Terra's Legacy, a unique in-game event tackling real-world environmental pollution. From September 9th to 19th, players will battle pollution-themed enemies and contribute to real-world cleanup efforts.
Combating Pollution, In-Game and Out
Terra's Legacy merges virtual gameplay with real-world environmental action. Players identify polluted locations in their surroundings via Orna, submitting these spots to the developers. Northern Forge then transforms these into "Gloomsites" within the game, representing polluted areas on our planet.
At these Gloomsites, players confront the Murk, a pollution-themed enemy, engaging in battles reminiscent of classic environmental narratives. Defeating the Murk not only progresses the game but also raises awareness about pollution. Players can then plant virtual trees and grow Gaia apples in these same locations. These apples serve as character customizations and magical ability boosts, and can be harvested by other players. Increased player collaboration leads to a cleaner virtual and real world.
Terra's Legacy is part of the Green Game Jam 2024, an annual event uniting game developers worldwide to promote environmental consciousness.
