As I type these words, the very world we live in is boiling. Protests, riots, and all kinds of activism stuff is off the roof. Naturally, some video game developers decided to introduce this theme to their latest video games.
GAMES ABOUT IMMIGRATION AND REFUGEES
Protesting and activism is actually very good as long as it remains peaceful. No one would argue against it. But things quickly change when violence happens. Violent protest and riots are bad for both the environment and the cause.
So, let’s experience protests in video games. Some games are taking the perspective of rioters and some following the police force. Both are equally fun in my opinion.
Activism, protest, and riot themed video games list:
1. Eco Warrior
2. Omon Simulator
3. Riot Control Simulator
4. Riot Operator
5. Stayhomer
6. 1979 Revolution: Black Friday
7. Riot: Civil Unrest
8. Berlin Maniacs
9. Disobey – Revolt Simulator
10. Hooligan Simulator
11. The Man Came Around
12. Ready for Riot
Let’s end this ranking with a riot game. A prison riot game! I wonder why prison riot stuff is not a common thing in gaming. This bothers me as a Prison Break and OZ fan.
Anyways, Ready for Riot will put you into the middle of a prison riot set in a hard American prison.
You need to do what it takes to take control of the situation as a member of the police task force.
The gameplay is about controlling prisoners with a 1 to 4 player missions. I can’t wait to try this out with my buddies.
