설명
The year is 1941. You are 16-year-old Henry Tanaka, a fictional Japanese American teen born and raised on a farm in Bainbridge, Island, Washington. When Japan declares war and the US government forces your family into a military prison camp in Manzanar, California, how will you react? Will you help your community? Support the war? Resist injustice? When your loyalty is questioned, how will you respond? Playing as Henry, you will learn about a lesser known chapter of American history, meeting other Japanese Americans with a variety of viewpoints and backgrounds. And as you grapple with challenges faced by more than 120,000 Japanese Americans unjustly incarcerated during World War II, the choices you make will help determine the outcome of Henry’s story.
