In the wee hours of the morning, Nissan opened the portal to its video game-like promotional website, "The Planet Zero," where
gamers
visitors can experience a virtual zero-emissions society in an "understandable way." The site was launched as part of the automaker's comprehensive strategy that calls for a world that doesn't run on gas.
Nissan says the site is "targeted at people from a wide range of ages," but zeroes in on high school and college students. The Plant Zero is a game-style site that makes users "enjoy learning a zero-emission society," but after tinkering around on the site for a bit, we came to the conclusion that "enjoy" is not the word we'd used to describe it.
Yes, there are some unique characters designed to look like solar power and wind power generation systems. And there's "Plug," the zero-emissions mobility character, but the site lacks guidance and it's "neo-futuristic" design is crude. Perhaps The Planet Zero will get charged up when Nissan adds more stages – something the automaker says it will do in the future – but for now, the four initial stages just didn't comes across as enjoyable.
