3:20AM Tori Floyd | British game developer Luc Bernard is under fire from a Holocaust survivor for his newest game in the works, Imagination is the Only Escape. Survivor Jack Kagan of Belarus said that he was outraged at the idea of the game, that the Holocaust is a very serious subject for all of humanity, and no one should make a game like this one. Bernard responded that the game was meant to educate people, particularly children, about the events of the Holocaust. Kagan wouldn’t buy it, though, and said that people should be educated about the Holocaust by watching and reading things instead. After all of this back and forth, there isn’t even confirmation yet that Imagination is the Only Escape will actually be released anywhere. Nintendo so far has said there are
no plans to release the game in North America, and Nintendo Europe says it is “not yet been contacted by developer Luc Bernard regarding the release”.
