Gotta Catch ‘Em All! Man Up Launches Facebook STD Game

"Up, up and a gay!"

Terrence Higgins was one of the first men to die from AIDS in the UK. His friends have been keeping his memory alive in the form of a sexual health non-profit, the Terrence Higgins Trust, since 1982.

This week the organization goes full social media steam ahead with the launch of the Man Up Facebook game, a sort of reverse Pokemon meets Beach Blanket Bingo for the STD-loving crowd.

From Man Up’s Facebook page:

MAN UP! is a game of bouncy beds and scoring. The further you go, the more points you’ll gain, but your score’s only yours if you visit the clinic. It’s up to you if you play it safe!

Terrence Higgins Trust was one of the first charities to be set up in response to the HIV epidemic and has been at the forefront of the fight against HIV, and improving the nation’s sexual health, ever since.

The game is a good bit of fun – certainly the most fun we’ve ever had catching STD’s. Select one of four devastatingly handsome avatars (I’m Sexy Beast, obviously.) and then get to climbing across various gentlemen’s beds!

Go give it a shot! Let us know your high score in the comments!
