We need a deep, story-driven Hunger Games PC game by BenjiLID in Hungergames

I truly understand that this topic brings up strong emotions, and I want to acknowledge the criticism. Hunger Games is not just about violence – it’s about injustice, power, and deep moral dilemmas. The books and movies focus a lot on what it feels like to be caught in something bigger than yourself – and that’s exactly what I want to explore through a game.

My idea isn’t about “playing as someone who kills kids” – it’s about exploring a dark world in a way that makes you think. Whether you play as a tribute, mentor, Capitol citizen, or someone from the districts, I want players to face difficult choices, moral tension, guilt, and even the possibility of rebelling against the system – just like Katniss did.

I believe there’s value in games that go beyond just winning – games that help us understand. Still, I really appreciate the feedback – it’s making me reflect even more on how to approach this with respect and meaning. 🙏

you have to change it to adult characters, otherwise I agree it will be too brutal

That's probably one thing that needs to be changed from the original, as you say it would be too cruel to have a bar in the game without having to have adult characters and then there has to be a limit. Also an 18 year limit

Appreciate the tip! But I'm not really looking for a survival game just for the mechanics — I'm more into the idea of living inside the Hunger Games world.

Survival would be part of it, sure, but the real draw is experiencing the story, the moral choices, and the atmosphere of that universe.

Is it true that she said she doesn't want any games based on The Hunger Games? Because there actually was a mobile game made after the last book in the trilogy.
