Kuma Reality Games, the company that utilizes revolutionary videogame technology to re-create military events, launched a compelling online documentary gaming series on Saddam Hussein. The latest installment takes gamers through the frenzied search through the town of Adwar, and the capture of Hussein by U.S. troops in the infamous "spider hole."
Kuma's previous episode was a recreation of the events that led to Saddam's war crimes trial, now in progress in Iraq. Both episodes are available for free download at KumaWar (www.kumawar.com).
THE CAPTURE OF SADDAM: OPERATION RED DAWN takes gamers through a detailed walkthrough of Adwar, featuring the actual events and strategies the U.S. Army employed to capture Hussein in 2003. This mission gives consumers an interactive experience from a key event filled with drama.
"We utilize advanced game technology to recreate events that are at the center of Saddam Hussein's trial," said Keith Halper, ceo of Kuma Reality Games. "These missions allow people to educate themselves on international events that have shaped our history, while providing a dynamic forum for further exploration and discussion."
The previous installment, THE CRIME OF DUJAYL: SADDAM'S REVENGE, spotlights the events of 1982, for which Saddam Hussein faces his first round of judgment. From the Iraqi town of Al-Dujayl, Hussein is accused of executing 143 villagers and imprisoning 1,500 more.
