Sacramento, Calif. -- The video game industry's ESA Foundation, California State Senator Liz Figueroa and nonprofit Web Wise Kids have introduced a new online game that aims to educate teens on how to outsmart cyber stalkers. Developed by Web Wise Kids, "Mirror Image" is based on a real-life criminal case involving cyber stalking, and will be distributed for free to Web Wise Kids' partner schools and police departments. "We can tell teens or even show them how to be safe online, but an interactive format… gets them involved in the story," said Figueroa, chair of the Select Committee on Children, Youth and Families.
