New York (Dec. 2, 2004) –
Kuma Reality Games, the company that blends news coverage with game technology
to allow players to experience interactive re-creations of real military events,
has released its latest timely Kuma\War mission from the military
hotspot of Fallujah -- “Fallujah: Operation al-Fajr.”
Taking place just 3 weeks ago in November 2004 in the final push by US forces to
regain control of the insurgents’ stronghold, “Fallujah: Operation al-Fajr”
re-creates the largest single military action since the fall of Saddam’s
regime. Players join U.S. Marines and Army soldiers in their joint operation to
capture the Jolan district in Fallujah. Players will experience firsthand the
intense mission of pacifying a city swarming with Sunni insurgents willing to
fight to the death.
For the making of “Fallujah: Operation al-Fajr,” Kuma\War used
detailed satellite imagery of Jolan and the train station just outside the area.
Players go from fighting snipers in the distance to close quarter combat to a
shootout in open terrain while protecting civilians from collateral fire and
explosions. This highlights the split-second decisions soldiers must face on a
daily basis and how terrain and environment dictate combat tactics.
Also featured in the Kuma’s News Report segment of “Fallujah: Operation al-Fajr”
is a discussion with Major General Thomas L. Wilkerson, USMC (ret) on the
strategy behind the fight for control of Fallujah and the importance of securing
the city as a stronghold.
In the coming weeks, subscribers will receive missions that re-create current
combat in Fallujah and elsewhere in Iraq. Many of these new missions are being
developed in cooperation with the U.S. military and soldiers returning from
Operation Iraqi Freedom.
