出奇招帮男人戒烟

　　Smokers are about to get help kicking the tobacco habit: an interactive computer game that aims to "coach" cigarette users away from their addiction.

　　想戒烟的烟民们有救了：一款互动式电脑游戏可以“指导”烟民戒掉烟瘾。

　　Based on the successful "Allen Carr's Easyway to Stop Smoking" method which reportedly has helped more than 10 million smokers to stub out their cigarettes once and for all, the game, designed for Nintendo DS, will be developed by the Quebec bureau of California-headquartered Ubisoft.

　　这款游戏主要以“艾伦·卡尔简便戒烟法”为基础，据说这种戒烟法已帮助一千多万烟民永久戒烟。这款专为任天堂DS(一种便携式掌上游戏机)设计的游戏将由总部位于加利福尼亚的育碧软件公司的魁北克分公司开发。

　　In the smoking cessation game, players enter a brief personal smoking history and their tobacco habits and choose a personal coach to guide them through the process of quitting, according to a press release issued by Ubisoft.

　　据育碧软件公司发布的新闻通稿介绍，在这款戒烟游戏中，玩家只需输入简短的个人吸烟史以及他们的吸烟习惯，并选择一个私人教练，就可以让这个教练指导他们戒烟了。

　　Fifteen mini-games help to "dispel the illusions about nicotine addiction" and players can track their progress in kicking the habit using the "Path to Freedom" meter.
