McDonald's Video Game
McDonald's Video Game is an online Flash game developed by Italian company Molleindustria. The game is a simulation of the business operations of the fast food chain McDonald's. It was released in 2006 and has since gained a significant following due to its satirical commentary on the fast food industry.
Gameplay[edit | edit source]
In the McDonald's Video Game, players take on the role of managing a McDonald's restaurant. The game is divided into four sections: the agricultural section, the feedlot, the fast food, and the corporate HQ. Each section represents a different aspect of the business, and players must balance the needs of each to keep the restaurant running smoothly.
In the agricultural section, players must manage the production of soy and beef, the primary ingredients in McDonald's food. This involves clearing land, planting crops, and raising cattle. In the feedlot, players must fatten up the cattle for slaughter. In the fast food section, players must manage the restaurant, including hiring and firing workers, setting prices, and maintaining customer satisfaction. Finally, in the corporate HQ, players must handle public relations and advertising, as well as deal with issues such as corruption and health concerns.
The game is known for its satirical portrayal of the fast food industry. It highlights the environmental impact of agriculture, the treatment of animals in feedlots, the health effects of fast food, and the corporate practices of large fast food chains.
Reception[edit | edit source]

It has been used in educational settings to teach about the impacts of fast food on society and the environment. However, it has also been criticized for its negative portrayal of the fast food industry and for potentially encouraging anti-corporate sentiment.
