We have decided to release the educational material to everyone intersted after a few requests for this, so it is more accessible than right now, where it was only for educators. It can be found here: http://www.playinghistory.eu/uploads/PH2-Slavetrade.zip

okay i think someone at steam needs to do soemthing about the review bomb spam and trolling here. because that is not legitimate. the russian spam is annoying and has no place in there at all. p.s. decent educational game and is pretty cheap price, especially on discounts it's practically free. i kind of recommend people to try, once. I haven't really played it though that much just saw videos of the gameplay.

Simple game with an important story. Not perfect, but it made me think about history differently.

Story tells about bad history part, not so bad. Graphics are for a small indie titel not so bad, but could have a few more details, sound is okay too. Gameplay is like first part not good or bad. The save file broken/ buggs the steam achievements and there could be more achievements for look this or that, or take a good way or a bad way (slave deals & other spots) or finishing the game. Like first game its more for...

used this game as research on my paper on the slave trade, but got a failing grade as i failed to mention "slave tetris." Why wasn't this included in the game?

They now removed the slave Tetris, which was the whole point of buying the game. Buyer beware, they are scamming you for removing the future you bought the game for, after buying the game. Rest of the game is quite boring and very short. On an educational and more serious note. They show the slave trade as if it were a summer camp, not grotesque at all. In the real world, there were exploitation, assault, and other...
