London
(ANI):
Brad
Pitt
and
Angelina
Jolie's
adopted
children
have
found
place
in
an
online
game
that
enables
players
to
purchase
orphans
as
''fashion
accessories.''
The
game
titled,
My
Minx,
also
allows
young
girls
to
give
contraceptives
and
morning
after
pills
to
their
online
avatars.
Players
dress
their
"virtual
minxes" in
lingerie
and
other
revealing
clothes
and
can
buy
orphans
named
after
the
adopted
children
of
celebs
including
Madonna
and
Ewan
McGregor.
The
adoption
clinic
in
a
virtual
Style
City
includes
children
called
Pax,
Maddox
and
Zahara,
after
Jolie''s
children.
These
children
have
the
same
ages
and
nationalities
as
Jolie's,
with
the
three-year-old
Maddox,
said
to
be
Cambodian
and
fond
of
eating
cockroaches.
The
five-year-old
Vietnamese
Pax
is
called
a
fan
of
noodles,
and
four-year-old
Zahara
from
Ethiopia
is
called
a
guinea
pig
eater.
Once
the
adoption
fee
is
paid,
players
give
their
new
children
designer
gear
and
try
and
sell
image
rights
for
them
to
celeb
mags.
Players
are
challenged
to
outdo
rival
"minxes" by
hoarding
more
adoptive
children.
The
game
developed
by
north
London
firm
Blighty
Arts
also
allows
players
take
their
minxes
binge
drinking
and
clubbing
as
they
try
to
seduce
men.
Minxes,
who
succeed
in
one
night
stands,
have
access
to
virtual
condoms
and
morning
after
pills.
Gamers
can
design
their
own
lingerie
brands
and
handbag
ranges
as
they
play
to
create
the
most
stylish
minx.
There
is
no
age
restriction
on
the
game
and
players
running
out
of
virtual
cash
can
top
up
their
accounts
by
sending
text
messages
costing
1.50pounds
each
or
use
PayPal.
My
Minx
was
unveiled
shortly
before
Christmas
and
has
already
boasts
of
20,000
members
as
young
as
seven.
However,
the
game
has
come
under
fire
from
parents'
groups.
"There
are
more
than
enough
pressures
on
children
to
grow
up
already.
We
don't
need
any
more," the
Telegraph
quoted
Andy
Hibberd,
spokesman
for
parents''
rights
group
Parentkind,
as
saying.
Hibberd
continued:
"Their
parents
will
not
have
any
idea
that
they
are
playing
this
game
and
the
children
will
fail
to
appreciate
its
irony.
"Having
them
getting
virtual
condoms
or
morning
after
pills
will
not
make
them
any
less
promiscuous."
Hibberd
added:
"As
regards
child
adoption,
this
game
encourages
them
to
think
that
they
don''t
need
to
worry
about
morals
or
ethics.
It
is
all
just
a
bit
of
fun.
“It
is
sending
out
all
the
wrong
messages
and
the
only
reason
its
creators
have
made
it
is
to
make
money."
But
Blighty
Arts
director
Christopher
Evans
says
the
game
is
pure
entertainment.
He
said:
"It
is
nonsense
to
suggest
our
game
is
a
bad
influence
on
young
children.
"We
try
to
protect
children
too
much
from
the
real
world
for
too
long
in
this
day
and
age.
They
cannot
be
wrapped
up
in
cotton
wool.
"We
should
let
them
grow
up
making
their
own
decisions
about
the
games
they
play."
Evans
added:
"The
game
teaches
children
about
the
world
while
poking
fun
at
celebrity
adoptions.
"Every
time
they
turn
on
the
TV
they
will
see
the
likes
of
Madonna
adopting
African
children
anyway.
"The
contraceptives
and
morning
after
pills
are
only
one
part
of
the
game
and
we
are
not
encouraging
young
girls
to
take
them,
just
reflecting
real
life."
