When it comes to war-themed games, you’ll probably think of Call of Duty games right away. Act as a soldier, fight the enemy and find a way to survive on the battlefield. However, the same topic, 11-bit studios has a more creative perspective and brings a unique game to the audience: This War of Mine. In this game, you will have a fresh, clearer view of the war. You will be embarking into people, who do not even have any weapon, are suffering from the consequences of war. Listen here; you must have enjoyed it, right? I believe that the plot will also instill in you even more meaning!
Plot
This War of Mine was built in the city of Sarajevo when the 1992 civil war in Bosnia and Hercegovina (Europe) occurred. The city of Sarajevo was unknowingly caught up in this pointless war, attacked and occupied by the military. For years Sarajevo was devastated, and abandoned by the government. They stopped providing reinforcements to rescue Sarajevo and stopped providing food, medicine, and everything, causing people to fall into the most frightening situation. Not only must they face the bombs of war, but they must fight disease and hunger… Can they survive under the pressure of the war and lacking necessary pieces of stuff?
Inspired by real-life events
Join in this game, you will turn into innocent people, accidentally become victims of war. They were stuck in the war and had to find a way to survive for 90 days and nights until the war ended. In the game, there are many characters that play various roles to survive themselves and help the others. Before the war, they had a peaceful life, a family, a job, and then their lives were suddenly turned upside down when the war took place.
They lost their families, lost their jobs, even had no safe shelter to sleep at night. They have to hide in ruined apartments, destroyed by bombs and your mission is to do everything they can to survive. During the day, you need to divide the characters to different positions to guard, watch out for the danger from soldiers, or the destruction of bombs. However, it is not all the difficulties you face. You also have to find food, medicine, and all the necessary items to maintain life for yourself and your teammates. You have to do everything to be able to survive, even to kill the survivors you don’t know otherwise.
You may think, the enemies will leave you alone when night falls, and you can relax. But things are not really like that. If you are free to act in the daytime, observe all the things happening around you, and find the source of food, or the tools you need to maintain your life, when night falls, every danger really starts. You can’t know in the other night, what’s going on, bombs, army scouts, or even sniper assassins. They are hiding somewhere, and you just need an opening, revealing your act, you can be killed at any time. It can be said that the survival of this game is best shown when night falls.
The meaning
This War of Mine shows you that, in the war, there were not only fierce confrontations, displaying armed forces, not everyone was soldiers with guns in their hands and on the battlefield. But somewhere out there, amid the destruction of war, there are innocent people, trapped in the middle of a fight. They have to face danger, with bombs, hunger, and sickness.
They live miserably, looking for each piece of food left in the crumbling places, each piece of shirt, blanket to fight the cold in the middle of the night, each dose of medicine to fight the diseases that are hidden in them , when inhaling the smell of gunpowder, and the radioactive contamination of the bomb. Horror obsession, suffering is always present in their minds. This War of Mine is like a work of art, which speaks of the fate of people in war, causing us to reflect on war crimes, creating great loss: relatives, families, and all the generous things they have ever had.
Graphics
This War of Mine is highly appreciated in graphics when many players give good comments in the section. It is a perfect combination of white and black colors, highlight the scene that the war brings: gloomy, chaotic and fierce. You will enjoy the artwork with the lead drawing of the designer: the ruined landscape of buildings, bullet marks, bombs, and corpses everywhere, giving the player emotional contact. An impressive game like This War of Mine that is missed is really wasteful. Don’t miss the chance to experience war with a new perspective!
