The purpose of making a video game is creating the best entertainment for young people especially the youths. The game should also be informative and promote gender equality in the society by providing characters of both genders. This project will meet the desired objectives of the company in sensitizing the society on the need for gender equality and responsible gaming. The aim of the game is to make the players feel the sense of control of the game, giving the desire to rule and referee their own game so as to bring more friends to play the game. In that manner the game will grow in the market over a short period. The success of the project will be determined by the number of players using the game and the comments which the players will leave after playing.
