So promises the EU-funded anti-corruption mobile game 'Tales of Neto'. Coming soon to Armenia (and the world beyond), the game is already up for a NICE Award, the European innovation prize for the creative industries. It demonstrates the effects of corruption ("Look around the island and you will see the effects of a disaster many years ago…"), encourages social engagement ("Talk to your fellow citizens, learn from them, and figure out how to get Planet Neto out of this mess together…") and activism ("Solve quests and watch the planet improve around you…").

The project is one of 10 shortlisted by an international jury of experts for a NICE Award, out of 110 submissions from 23 countries. The innovation award, which comes with prize money of 20,000 euros, will be presented on 6 September in Essen.
