ECB launches economic iPad game as euro crisis deepens
It needs all the help it can get - and now the European Central Bank is inviting the public to take key economic decisions for themselves. The Bank, now battling to save the euro, has produced a computer game in which players set interest rates to keep inflation low and growth steady. Economia, where the first E is the euro symbol, was launched for iPad and iPhone in October 2011, just as the crisis facing the eurozone was deepening. It is promoted with the line: "Will you be a hawk or a dove? Have you got what it takes to be among central banking's best?" It is unclear how much the game cost to develop.
