Anti-Corruption is a big thing in China, and it seems that the Chinese have created an online game in which players eradicate corrupt officials, and according to the state media the game has proved soo popular, that it has crashed under the stress of the number of people visiting the site to play the game.

Having only launched eight days ago, the game named Incorruptible Fighter has been downloaded more than 100,000 times.

With recent troubles in China regarding corruption, the regional government of east China devised the game, and so far, it looks as though that it's doing the job that it was designed for quite well.

"Incorruptible Fighter" allows players to get ahead by killing and torturing corrupt officials, while assisting the upstanding ones.

Along the way, they are led through a series of moral challenges before entering a corruption-free paradise.

The characters in the game are based on well-known figures from Chinese history.

    It actually sounds like quite a good idea and has certainly captured the hearts of the Chinese public. It would be good to see screenshots taken from the game to get an accurate impression of it though...
