This War of Mine

9/10 “shows the horrors of war in a way, that we rarely can experience in a game.” Giga Games

“This War of Mine is a gripping survival sim, and a great study of survival during wartime and civil collapse.” 8.4 – IGN UK

“Is this a game you want to play? No. Is it a game anyone with a beating heart should play? Yes. A million times yes. It's a longform exercise in empathy, a sobering piece of work that fills in the blanks left when all we see of war are the headshots. It's a much-needed course correct in the current shoot-first-ask-questions-never gaming landscape that supposes war is won because one supreme badguy caught a bullet through his brainstem. No: It's won when the people who lived under his boot get to go home.” 8 – Gamespot

This War of Mine:

• Inspired by real-life events

• Control your survivors and manage your shelter

• Craft weapons, alcohol, beds or stoves – anything that helps you survive

• Make decisions - an often unforgiving and emotionally difficult experience

• Randomized world and characters every time you start a new game

• Charcoal-stylized aesthetics to complement the game's theme

IGN: This War of Mine might be the war game we need.

Gamespot: I was intrigued by This War of Mine's attempts to portray the consequences of war in a way that games have largely ignored in the past. The fact that the psychological and emotional challenges of living under such horrifying conditions are something you have to consider as you struggle gives me added hope that it might treat its hefty and important subject matter with the gravity and complexity that it deserves.

Game Informer: 11bit is blazing a new thematic trail amidst the currently popular survival genre, and so far the studio seems to have something special on its hand.
