Nobody enjoys censorship but instead of taking it to heart and complaining about the fact that its upcoming violently cute hardcore unicorn killing game \u2013 Gori: Cuddly Carnage \u2013 has fallen foul of the censors in China and Korea, the devs decided to react in a positive way and launch a drive for gamers to give blood as a way to get themselves onto the credits of the game when it is released.<\/p>\n

We have looked at Gori previously<\/a> \u2013 mainly because it\u2019s a bit mad and that\u2019s what attracts our attention but this definitely makes it worth another mention.<\/p>\n

In Gori you play a cute yet hyper-violent cat (so a cat then) butchering its way through hordes of evil unicorns and other toys. The sheer amount of blood spatter seems to have unsettled the censors so it has had to be replaced in those regions with \u201cpurple toy juice.\u201d which the British devs at Wired Productions say<\/a> is \u201cdefinitely not blood recolored.\u201d<\/p>\n

This additional round of censorships got the teams thinking. With all the blood saved, Wired Productions and Angry Demon Studio decided to donate their blood in the UK and Sweden, in the hope of making a real-world impact and now they\u2019re calling for players to do the same.<\/p>\n

If you want to get involved you can do so by sharing a selfie of yourself on Instagram or X with the hashtag #GorisGotBlood and you will get to feature in the game\u2019s credits as a Lifesaver. Pretty cool. This we like.<\/p>\n

Those interested in donating blood in the UK can find more details at https:\/\/www.blood.co.uk<\/a>. Players in Sweden can donate here: https:\/\/geblod.nu\/bli-blodgivare<\/a> and in the US more information is available here: https:\/\/americasblood.org<\/a><\/p>\n

They have even doubled down with a new blood-drenched trailer for Gori which you can check out below. It\u2019s all cartoon violence really but certain countries have been forcing devs to turn off blood in their games for decades.<\/p>\n
