With We are Chigago, Culture Shock Games is seeking to inform as well as entertain. As you step into the shoes of high-schooler Aaron, you’ll experience a story gleaned from in-depth, real-life interviews.

Further, Culture Shock is putting its money where its mouth is. A portion of the game’s proceeds will be donated to non-profits All Stars Project of Chicago and Reclaim Our Kids, who are empowering at-risk youth in underprivileged communities of Chicago.

The developer asked two volunteers at All Stars to play We Are Chicago and share their impressions of the game.

Meet Grady, who grew up in Chicago’s Austin neighborhood (minor spoilers):

Meet Larone, who grew up in the South Shore and Bronzeville neighborhoods in Chicago:

We Are Chicago is now available for Windows, Mac and Linux on Steam  and the Humble Store.

I've been with JA in one capacity or other since 2003. I'm currently website administrator. I'm also a digital artist (my avatar is one of my creations). I write reviews and articles, create graphics and basically help tend the site. It's work I enjoy very much. I love playing games of all kinds, but adventure and RPGs are my favorites (particularly scary/dark/unsettling ones). At the top of my list are The Cat Lady, The Longest Journey, Dreamfall, Still Life (first one only), Scratches and Culpa Innata. I'm a dyed-in-the-wool recluse and prefer the company of animals, hardware and ghosts to human beings (no offense). And no bio would be complete without my saying that I do NOT care for phones of ANY sort. Further, I think Dell computers are garbage and that Microsoft has become megalomaniacal. "I put my heart and soul into my work, and have lost my mind in the process." - Vincent Van Gogh "I need solitude for my writing; not like a hermit - that wouldn't be enough - but like a dead man." - Franz Kafka "I've been to hell and back, my boy." - Susan Ashworth, The Cat Lady
