New York, NY, December 02, 2014 - JNJ Mobile today announced a special update to Street Wars, their social game available on the popular platform Mocospace. From December 1st a special exoskeleton item will be available in the store for $3.75, the exoskeleton will give players extra health and strength.
During the campaign 50% of the proceeds will go towards AbleGamer's mobile gaming laboratory. Steve Spohn, AbleGamer's Chief Operations Officer, said "AbleGamers is thrilled to partner with Mocospace. Thanks to their generosity, we'll be able to grant expensive, custom assistive technology to gamers with disabilities all around the world. Christmas time can be especially frustrating for someone who gets a new game and can't play it because it's inaccessible. The funds raised from this campaign will help us provide the technology to make sure all the presents under the Christmas tree are accessible."
"We are grateful to Playmob and AbleGamers for partnering with us to give us and our audience of active gamers the chance to make a difference in a cause we all strongly believe in. Video games are an incredible source of fun, friends, and entertainment. There is a game out there for everyone, and we want to do our part to make sure everyone has the chance to find and play them," said Justin Siegel, Co-founder of JNJ Mobile.
