Parkland Parents Launch Video Game on Gun Control

Manuel and Patricia Oliver, parents of Parkland victim Joaquin Oliver, have launched a controversial video game titled 'The Final Exam' to raise awareness about gun violence and advocate for legislative change. The game simulates a school shooting experience, challenging players to survive while navigating a chaotic environment filled with real-life scenarios drawn from actual school shootings. Players must collect information about five gun control bills that aim to prevent future tragedies, including measures like an assault weapons ban and background checks. The Olivers, who have been outspoken advocates for gun control since their son's death in the 2018 shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, hope the game will encourage players to push for meaningful policy changes. Despite backlash against the game's subject matter, the Olivers stand firm in their mission to educate the public about the realities of mass shootings. 'The Final Exam' is set to be available for download on Steam, aiming to engage a wider audience in discussions about gun violence and reform.
