The game leads the player to learn the difficulties and dangers of living in a refugee camp. In a first stage the gameplay is centered on the collection of water from a well. To do this the player must choose the member of a displaced family and if captured when searching for the water he is informed of the frequent refugee camp atrocities which were applied to his fictional character. In a second stage the player must carefully manage the water previously collected.
