Hi Amy
We at Lighthouse did a project last year entitled Past Present which
involved a lot of reminiscence work involving young people
interviewing elders about their experience of home front WW2 in
Brighton. This was edited with footage from film archives of home
front WW2 footage, and then deposited in a 3D role play computer game
platform which the young people helped to design, with the help of
the older people's stories and reminiscences... The game is called
Lives at War, and exists as a downloadable or online playable game
for free, teaching young people (or anyone interested in playing
computer games!) about WW2.
Lives at War can be found here: http://www.lives-at-war.org.uk/
Information about Past Present can be found here: http://

Hope that's helpful!
Jamie
