The Everest Rescue Trust has created a challenging and educational game called SkyHook. The game strategy is based on the activity of the Trust's challenge of rescuing injured climbers, cleaning rubbish and litter from the mountains and creating awareness of the harsh conditions of the environment.
Players must overcome difficulties including weather, avalanches, rockfalls, temperature, time and fuel use. A little humourous artistic license is applied with a Yeti and a few other surprises. There is very deliberately NO blood or violence, making this game suitable for all ages.
The Trust wants SkyHook to be fun and a pleasant interlude in the progress of completing the school project and an adjunct to the learning process.
