About this site

The Battle of the Litter Bugs computer game has been developed as part of our Brighter Belfast anti-litter campaign. Brighter Belfast is a major awareness campaign aimed at making Belfast a cleaner and brighter place to live or visit.

For more information on the campaign please visit www.belfastcity.gov.uk/brighterbelfast

The aim of the Battle of the Litter Bugs computer game is to introduce the anti-litter message to young people in a fun and interactive way. Players can visit six well-known areas of Belfast; in each area there is an exciting game to play. Each game pits our anti-litter hero Captain Cleanup up against his arch-enemy the ghastly General Grime and his gang of litter bugs. The litter fact sheets in each area will help players answer the questions in each of our six litter quizzes. There are also fun activity sheets to print out and complete.

The game will also be available on CD ROM format that can be used in schools.

To book an anti-litter school visit or to find out more about our education packs, please visit www.belfastcity.gov.uk/brighterbelfast/schools.asp
