ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF COUNTRY

Ockerisms uses authentic Australian phrases, slang terms and place names. It shows Australian flora and fauna over a representation of Australia and includes images of Aboriginal sacred sites, culture, indigenous territory and Aboriginal language groupings to indicate the complex and diverse indigenous heritage of Australia. The Aboriginal language groupings are respectfully included to show awareness that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples have belonged to the land since the beginning of the Dreaming and to acknowledge that they continue with their ownership as the traditional custodians of the land and sea. Only a limited number of indigenous language groupings have been used as there are too many to be able to include on the game. This in no way diminishes the significance or importance of the language groupings that have not been noted on the game.
