英语原文

Smokers are about to get help kicking the tobacco habit: an interactive computer game that aims to "coach" cigarette users away from their addiction.

Based on the successful "Allen Carr's Easyway to Stop Smoking" method which reportedly has helped more than 10 million smokers to stub out their cigarettes once and for all, the game, designed for Nintendo DS, will be developed by the Quebec bureau of California-headquartered Ubisoft.

In the smoking cessation game, players enter a brief personal smoking history and their tobacco habits and choose a personal coach to guide them through the process of quitting, according to a press release issued by Ubisoft.

Fifteen mini-games help to "dispel the illusions about nicotine addiction" and players can track their progress in kicking the habit using the "Path to Freedom" meter.

"And even after that last cigarette butt has sullied the ashtray, you can still play the game and measure the daily benefits you get from your new life without cigarettes," Ubisoft promises.

"The player experiences a truly interactive engagement with the game, through which he or she learns that it can actually be enjoyable to quit smoking," said Christian Salomon, vice president of worldwide licensing at Ubisoft.

想戒烟的烟民们有救了:一款互动式电脑游戏可以“指导”烟民戒掉烟瘾。

这款游戏主要以“艾伦·卡尔简便戒烟法”为基础,据说这种戒烟法已帮助一千多万烟民永久戒烟。这款专为任天堂DS(一种便携式掌上游戏机)设计的游戏将由总部位于加利福尼亚的育碧软件公司的魁北克分公司开发。

据育碧软件公司发布的新闻通稿介绍,在这款戒烟游戏中,玩家只需输入简短的个人吸烟史以及他们的吸烟习惯,并选择一个私人教练,就可以让这个教练指导他们戒烟了。

15个迷你游戏可以帮助戒烟者“驱除烟瘾”,而且玩家还可以使用“自由之路”计量器来跟踪自己的戒烟进展。

育碧公司声称,即便戒烟成功后,你依然可以继续玩这个游戏,并看看没有香烟的新生活能给你带来多大的好处。

育碧软件全球许可部副主管克里斯丁·勒蒙说:“游戏玩家能与这个游戏进行真正的互动,并能在这一过程中体会到戒烟可以很愉快。”
