  "account": "Google has teamed up with actor Henry Cavill to create a 16-bit video game called \"Mustache Protocol.\" This playful game, built entirely on Googlebook, is designed to support men's health by raising awareness and funds for Movember. For every game played between November 11 and 30, Google will donate $11, with a maximum donation of $500,000. Henry Cavill, in his creative process, designed a mustachioed hero using Googlebook's tools, and the game's audio was finalized with help from Googlebook as well. The game features three levels where players must stop a rogue CGI agent from erasing all mustaches on the planet. To make the game unique, Henry included funny power-ups and Easter eggs for players to discover. The retro-style game can be played directly in a web browser or on a desktop or mobile device using simple arcade controls. Visit googlebook.com/henry to start playing, watch the behind-the-scenes episodes, and contribute to this important cause.",
