Occupation - The game with the heart of gold

I made this little flash game about the Iraq Invasion back in 2004-5. I figure now that I have a blog I can share it with both of you.

When I wrote it I had no idea how closely it would follow the actual war. They both involve pointless bloodshed, are poorly thought out and never-ending. Enjoy!

This is a Moderate Muslim Cleric. His calming words will convert Militants back into peace loving civilians.

This is an Iraqi. He may be a Militant, he may be a civilian. Militants spout rhetoric for a while when they are newly converted, but then they realise that their best tactic is to blend into the population.

This is a Radical Muslim Cleric. His Hate Filled Sermons will incite the civilian population to rise up against the invaders.

Beware the witnesses to your carnage: If an Iraqi witnesses the death of a fellow civilian he will rise up against you. They are especially sensitive to the death of a holy man.

Ah, as GK Chesterton said we must support the classics over the fashions. And this game is an absolute classic.
