A game on US immigration

Hey guys,
I am soon going to launch a campaign for my game that is based on US immigration. This is my first campaign. I would really appreciate your feedback.
Every year hundreds and thousands of people apply for US visa. But not everyone who apply will get the visa. Almost 50% were rejected this year because of H1B cap. Another 1/3rd applicants will face challenges and might get denied to reasons like improper filing, missing documents, etc. The situation is equally worse for other visa categories. The key challenge for an aspiring immigrant is authentic information and knowing what to expect in this tedious application process. Having experienced first-hand the dysfunction of the immigration system, I decided to create this gaming app called 'GetVisa'
GetVisa will thoroughly educate people and prepare them on what to expect during the visa application process. Imagine talking to your attorney and getting information. Just add some fun and entertainment to it.

That sounds very very useful, and best of luck with it.
I can tell you that at first I wondered if this was a satire game, but I'm glad it's serious. It could be more useful for people instead of making them more cynical. Have you ever heard of a game called "Third World Farmer"? It was briefly a big deal online and showed the many different difficulties faced by farmers in developing countries, and it really opened many people's eyes, but it didn't necessarily fit the practicality of your project.

Thanks for the feedback dylanmad. We realized there is lot of information available on this topic but everything is so ambiguous that you need expert's advice to understand it. Our aim is to teach aspiring immigrants the process and steps involved in getting visa in a fun and entertaining way.

I think it didn't go so well. Like anything when it comes to US Immigration. I am saying that because I do have some first hand experience when it comes to immigrating to the states and just how hard it can be. I have always wanted to move to the US but there was always something in the way. I tried to win the DV program but i was never lucky enough. I worked really hard though and became one of the best in my field (I am an IT specialist) and because of my achievements I got a h1b visa. I was ecstatic when I got the news but I also knew that I needed some help with this thing. I started looking for a h1b visa lawyer Los Angeles being my target area ( always wanted to live in LA). It was not an easy road but I did find a really good lawyer that was very nice and I could tell that he was a professional. He had some experience in cases like these so I was really hopeful. The process took longer then I hoped but at the end everything went fine. I am currently in the states and I probably would not have been here thanks to him. I am very lucky that is for sure.

Yes, I understand. I read that this year the number of Green Cards will be increased by 35 percent, which means that more people will get a Green Card. You did the right thing by applying for help from a specialist. My cousin who emigrated to the US 15 years ago recommended to me apply the service. He did everything alone and now regrets that he spent a lot of time and money on it. His colleague, who moved from Spain, received citizenship at the same time as my cousin, although she applied five years later, but with the help of specialists.
