PETA satirical browser games

[11] In it, PETA encouraged users to write to Cooking Mama developer Majesco Entertainment to create a version of the game with only vegetarian recipes.

[13] After successfully completing the main levels, Mama goes vegan and hugs a live turkey, while the player makes a tofurkey.

[16] It plays as a standard platformer[15] and is peppered with inter-level pro-vegetarian messages and facts about meat consumption and the livestock industry.

"[19] It is an action game in which the player controls a skinned but living raccoon dog that chases Mario to retrieve its fur.

Pikachu first fights a drunk Cheren,[23] who brutally abuses his Tepig in a dog fighting-esque manner, and then moves on to other Trainers and characters in order to rescue their Pokémon from their ownership (a Snivy being experimented on by Professor Juniper, an Oshawott skinned alive by Ghetsis, and finally Ash himself).

Also a role-playing game, it stars Pikachu and Miltank,[27] who battle McDonald's characters like the Hamburglar in a crusade against the rare but ongoing practice of meat production in the Unova region.

[28][29] Pikachu must rescue a Jigglypuff from being treated like furniture, a Miltank from the dairy industry and the slaughterhouse, and Grimace from being tortured.

Also in 2013, PETA released Cage Fight: Knock Out Animal Abuse, a beat 'em up game in the style of River City Ransom.

Forbes contributor Erik Kain summarized the series in general as "a long parade of silly protests."

Kain called the game "ludicrous" given that gamers had long adored the Tanooki suit and would not be encouraged to kill real-life raccoon dogs.

[31] Jessica Conditt from Joystiq found the messages of Pokémon Black and Blue to be contradictory: "while it's terrible to punch, kick, cut or hit fictional animals with bats, it's perfectly acceptable to electrocute humans".

[21] Kotaku's Mike Fahey wrote a mostly negative piece about Pokémon Red, White, and Blue; he stated that despite its occasional humor, "mostly it just wanders about, beating its message into your brain with heavy hands.
