I used to be a Farmville junkie but stopped playing and then I heard about the TerraCycle game! I was so excited, now I love the game and the company!
"Now, going green is more fun and easier for both parents and kids. The online game helps both learn about the environment and raise money for CarbonFund.org, an environmental non-profit. A non-branded, non-Facebook version of the game will also be available soon!
Trash Tycoon is the first Facebook game built around upcycling. Players are the mayor of their town, which has a common problem: garbage! Players are challenged to collect waste and overcome various trash based obstacles and missions. They can then build factories and upcycling facilities just like the ones TerraCycle operates to make the same products TerraCycle makes in real life. In addition, players can create and cultivate a worm farm and create fertilizer based on TerraCycle’s original business model.
10% of all in-game currency will be donated to a CarbonFund project, and players will get to choose from three monthly projects to support with their efforts. Trash Tycoon will also connect to the real-life TerraCycle Brigade programs. Members of the TerraCycle Brigade system will get special bonuses, items and gifts in the game and when they reach certain levels in the game, will even get bonus points or other surprises in their real Brigade accounts! This makes the game a great way to further engage kids (and adults!) in more recycling and resource conservation.
To start playing, visit TerraCycle’s Facebook page (www.facebook.com/TerraCycle) or www.trashtycoon.com, and sign up! Be sure to be part of a collection Brigade at the same time so you can earn bonuses in the game and in the real collections!"
The game is fun, you click to clean up garbage and populate your city. You earn coins to purchase green items for your city while cleaning up garbage that you can then upcycle! My city is a green level 6 right now, I have purchases windmills and recycling bins and am working on becoming greener so I can move onto the next level and get more populated and open the rest of my city. Check it out, it is addictive!
