Description | The World the Children Made is a game adaptation of Ray Bradbury's The Veldt. It immerses the player in the role of Lynda, the mother of a family that just moved into the home of the future. The purpose of The World the Children Made is to pique interest in classic science fiction and short stories within youth. This game serves more as a gateway into literature than a full educational game, allowing players to actively experience a modern rendition of a classic Bradbury tale before sitting down to read. |
