I played Evoke but was distressed at some of the political messaging in it. That said, the reviews of the game, looking at participation rates, have generally been positive. "By the time the EVOKE adventure ended, 19,324 people from over 150 countries registered to play, far exceeding expectations. Players submitted over 23,500 blog posts (about 335 each day), 4,700 photos and over 1,500 videos. The site received over 178,000 unique visitors and 2,345,000 page views with time per visit averaging over eight minutes."
