Having your ear tuned to the market

This certainly reminds me of Soviet style communism.
China is developing a patriotic internet game featuring Chinese heroes to wean the young off their addiction to violent foreign games.

Unlike the more popular games, where players have to slay dragons, fight aliens or beat up bad guys, in Chinese Heroes players "click on statues to learn about their experiences and carry out tasks like moving bricks", Xinhua news agency said.

Kou Xiaowei, an official with China's General Administration of Press and Publication, which is organising the game's development, said: "We hope the game will teach players about Chinese ethics."
I'm sure this game will rise to the top of the best seller list almost immediately. Every kid wants to click on statues of heros and, boy, it's really fun to move bricks.
