Under Siege (2005 video game)


Under Siege is a sequel to the video game Under Ash designed by Radwan Kasmiya. Like Under Ash, it is a first-person shooter, with the option of playing the game as a third-person shooter. The game focuses on the lives of a Palestinian family between 1999 and 2002 during the second Intifada. The player shoots at Israeli Defense Force soldiers throughout most of the game. Shooting at civilians or otherwise hurting them ends the game.
The game has been described as a docugame, since all the game levels are based on actual events documented by United Nations records.
Under Siege is about the modern history of Palestine and it focuses on the lives of five Palestinian family members, during the second Intifada 1999–2002.
The game was released in three versions:
In 2013, the Golden Edition was released for free on the Afkar Media website, accompanied by a message saying "RIP Under Ash".
