"LP Recharge", also known as "Linkin Park Recharge", is a free-to-play action-puzzle game. The game was release on 12 September 2013. The current game is playable on Facebook.[1] The game is focused on solving puzzles and also attempting to rise awareness about parts of the world that don’t have reliable power.
History
The game was announced on June 20, 2012; almost 1 year before the release of the game.[2] A trailer was launched for the game in late August 2013.[3] The game had 30,000 gamers in its 1st day. A single by Linkin Park and Steve Aoki known as "A Light That Never Comes" was unlocked by collecting 10 million MWh total in the game by the gamers on September 16, 2013.[4] The single is also the opening track for the new Remix Album by Linkin Park named Recharged.
Game story
The game allows player to become a hero to save the world from the hybrids. LP RECHARGE takes place in a not-too-distant future where humans have depleted all natural resources on the planet. Society and what little energy stores remain have been seized control of by machines and an elite minority. Players join cooperatively to battle their captors and RECHARGE the world with clean, sustainable energy. LP RECHARGE will be made available to play through Facebook and have a 3D UNITY graphic.
Energy poverty and sustainable energy are critically important to co-developer Linkin Park. Launched in 2005, their non-profit charity organization Music for Relief provides aid to people affected by natural disasters and supports environmental and clean energy projects. Music for Relief’s current environmental program, Power The World, was created to bring attention to the 1.3 Billion people worldwide whose lack of electricity compromises their health, safety, education, and livelihoods. The social game LP RECHARGE brings attention to energy poverty and clean energy solutions.
LP Recharge event at Microsoft Loft
A Event for the game was held at Microsoft Loft for the promotion of the game. Mike Shinoda, Joe Hahn and Dave Farrell were present at the event playing the game and talking about how good the game is. The band members also had a talk on their new single which was released after the success in the game.[5]
