A Force More Powerful is the first and only game to teach the waging of conflict using nonviolent methods. Destined for use by activists and leaders of nonviolent resistance and opposition movements, the game will also educate the media and general public on the potential of nonviolent action and serve as a simulation tool for academic studies of nonviolent resistance.

    Excellent idea! I remember a game called Zeus designed by Sierra in which the player had to plan and build a city using available resources. On completing the game the player gets a firm understanding of the nitty gritty of town planning and related areas like real Estate and urbanisation.Games especially those one which require a player to think have a considerable effect on him/her.I’am looking forward to playing this game!!!
