From CNN: Students fight for Mideast peace in video game.
In “PeaceMaker,” players choose between the role of an Israeli prime minister or a Palestinian Authority president. They make policy decisions, communicate with the international community and monitor opinion polls while coping with “black events” — bursts of violence that threaten to throw the game off course.
“PeaceMaker” incorporates news footage of actual events designed to make players feel connected to the real world. The game’s objective is peace through a two-state solution, but players can also wage attacks.
Serious games.
