Xenophilia is a computer quiz on a CD-ROM about the issue of being a foreigner. Its presentation is vivid and appealing, including pictures, sounds and animated characters. This game has been designed to combine the fun factor of a quiz competition with the provision of information on what it is like to be a foreigner. Thus, it helps sensitize young people towards the problems that might arise when it comes to dealing with foreigners. There are hundred questions in the quiz which is divided into two topics: "Being a foreigner in Germany" and "Being a foreigner abroad". Xenophilia comes with a free brochure for teachers which provides all the necessary information and teaching aids that you need to give the game a go as a special classroom activity.
