The story: My story is about a teenage boy that is traveling around the world and encounters the small place of Junksville. The village is infested with evil JFB's (Junk food baddies) that are trying to spread junk food throughout the whole village. The teenage boy has to travel across the village attempting to eliminate all the junkfood masters and to restore healthy eating. In order to do this the teenager must learn the basics of health and apply them to save the village.

Objective: The objective of this game is to eliminate or jail all the JFB's and the evil dictator that started the Junk food madness. In this game the player will usually be given only one life because the player will have to take the game more seriously if he/she wants to save the village. The player will also have to learn different things about health and apply those skills in a multiple choice game inside the game.

Lesson: Junk food is a very dangerous and unhealthy type of food that can lead to obesity and eventually to a heart attack. Junk food is a low nutritious and highly fatty food. This makes people eat more junk food so that they can fill themselves up quickly thus increasing the amount of fats digested. Eating healthy also leads to benefits such as a better thought process and more awareness of your surroundings. Even though a person eats healthy, he/she must also consider exercise. On average, it is essential to exercise about 3 hours a week to be physically fit. Junk food is also highly addicting so once you eat it twice you will start to crave it and you will also need it more to satisfy you.

Intended Audience: I am targeting children around the age of 7 to 10 because young kids need to learn about health so that they will be more aware of what they eat when they grow up.
