Anima Interactive revealed its Take Us North game about migrant journeys. It hopes the game will answer the question of what it would be like to walk in someone else’s shoes.

It’s a very different kind of survival narrative game that puts you in the shoes of migrants, refugees, asylum seekers and other travelers seeking a better life across the U.S.-Mexico border. The game was revealed today on the Latin American Games Showcase ahead of The Game Awards this week. Here’s a link to an upcoming Kickstarter campaign for the game.
