Mechanics: West of Loathing is a unique mix between a point and click adventure and a turn based action rpg. Though you do have the ability to walk around the game using W,A,S,D I would use point and click to walk around find objects. The developers have a bag type system that is pretty good. Every item can be shown to you in a long list or you can sort every item down to make it more manageable. It seems as though whenever you want to leave a scene you walk off screen to the left. This is neat…

Imprisoned against their will Imagine a child being torn away from their family, home, and the life that they have always known. Picture them being shoved in a cage that was too small. Being beaten, terrorized, sliced open, and injected with chemicals they could not pronounce. Forced to obey and perform for the very kind that put them in that cage. They wait day by day hoping that somehow they will make it out and be free like they once were. Until they suddenly realize that their mind…

ability to win people over with their tricks. These mammals are one of the most intelligent aquatic animals, and because of this they have been taught tricks and to perform. This has worked against the sea creature, however. Their role in the entertainment industry has benefited human kind, yet most people haven’t realized the damage they are doing to the species.

The incident created a debate on whether SeaWorld trainers should go in the pool and swim…

John Hargrove a former SeaWorld trainer said, “...I was thrilled to be apart of the orcas’ lives for so long, I finally came to the realization that if I had to live their lives, it would be hell. Captivity is always captivity, no matter how gentle the jailer”(9). That is why, regardless of their ultimate fate, orcas should never, under any circumstance be bred, raised, or kept in captivity. Orcinus orcas, also known as killer whales, have been used as a sense of entertainment for close to a…

have left animals to rot in their cramped cages when they die; left animals unfed, untreated for wounds; or left in areas so minuscule they cause psychological trauma. Seaworld has some of the worst cases of animal cruelty on documentation. One of the most notorious cases of animal cruelty in Seaworld is their care of orcas. Seaworld keeps orcas in containers inadequate for their size. At night, the orcas are placed in a cramped shelter barely big enough for one orca, the next day many orcas are…
