Introduction

During World War II, in order to increase the birth rate of "Aryan" children, the German party Praetorian Guard introduced the evil "Fountain of Life" program. In the Norwegian region, about 12,000 children were born as a result of this program. Some of the children were sent to Germany, while about half of them stayed in Norway.

After the war, the Norwegian government targeted these children for retribution. Some children were sent to mental institutions and experienced cruel humiliation and abuse, others stayed with their mothers but were still maligned by neighbors or peers. Today, these children become elderly, but they are still sometimes subjected to humiliation, their children are also subjected to bullying. Only in recent years, the Norwegian government has agreed to give them some compensation.

While working on a documentary featuring the Children of the Fountain of Life, ElinFestoy, one of the producers, felt that these stories needed to be conveyed to a wider audience, moreover, she wanted people to experience first-hand the suffering the children go through. Then “My Child Lebensborn” appeared.

In the game, the player needs to observe the child's expressions and words and actions to help them solve their problems. When a child suffers an insult, you can choose different methods of education. You have to explain to the children the cause of the incident and help them fight against fear and feelings of abandonment. You can choose different routes, take different actions and give different advice.

Game review

My Child Lebensborn is a solemn game in which the player takes care of a traumatized child, and all you need to do is find a way to help him heal and grow up healthy.

Although the game is set in post-war Norway, its material is also derived from the wartime Norwegian people's fertility and real-life problems, and even the developers have interviewed those children who grew up after the "Fountain of Life" program about their childhood stories. But the war is not the main focus of this game, but rather the insignificant bullying is the theme, the game highlights the contradiction of bullying, but also provides some comfort and guidance to those who have been bullied or are being bullied advice, it is worth for everyone to experience.
