"After research by its parent institute indicated that video games do not handle LGBT issues well, the Singapore-based MIT Labs began development on A Closed World.  The free-to-play browser game throws you into the beguiling shows of a sexually confused teen struggling to consolidate his identity with social expectations. Chock-full of witty metaphors, the game follows the young villager, who hopes to traverse the &amp;#039;forbidden forest&amp;#039; after growing tired of the bigotry of his peers. What lies beyond the brush is unknown, though it&amp;#039;s clearly more promising than the prospect of return. Armed by classic role-playing controls, A Closed World plays wonderfully and is accompanied by a riveting, chip-tune soundtrack.  As with most films, video games suffer from the problem of fixed perspective -- the main character is typically a 20-something Caucasian male, an everyman. A Closed World hopes to push boundaries by forcing players to see the world through the eyes of an LGBT teen."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
