Feel like playing? Be one of the Navy Seals… a bit too soon?



Having thrown Osama Bin Laden’s body in the sea like a vulgar pair of socks wasn’t apparently enough.

This Saturday, Kuma Games has decided to launch a game where the player can be of one of the Navy Seals during the attack of the military complex in Abbottabad. Kuma Games is offering its players the opportunity to repeat the assault made by the Navy Seals on a specially designed “map”.

The only difference with what happened last week is that Osama Bin Laden’s position changes at the beginning of every new game, allowing people to play it as much as they want.

The development and the implementation of the game have been done following the different elements that have been published in the media.

It is not Kuma Games’ first tendentious production. They have built their image on editing special games and maps retracing real life military operations.

Players have already had the possibility to play different missions like the assault against Saddam Hussein, military drones’ attack in Afghanistan or several battles in Iraq.

If you feel like watching how it looks like, check this video:



Everyone is entitled to its own opinion of course but releasing such a game a week after seems a bit tendentious especially if we look at the way the whole situation has been dealt with by American officials.

For sure an amazing communication boost for the editor… and probably a lot of players in the couple of days along with a torrent of misplaced hatred…
