(More customer reviews)I purchased PeaceMaker via download direct from ImpactGames several months ago. It is very deep and surprisingly fun. I haven't played a political simulator like this since Hidden Agenda, way back in the 80s. PeaceMaker is thoughtful, serious, and highly original.
Beware: Many of your options in the game are really booby traps! In particular, using violence to solve the conflict will only lead to an early (and humiliating) loss. As the title of the game states, you simply must be a peacemaker to win. However, early in the game, you will often find that being a peacemaker is not popular with your own people! You will have to win their trust and prove your leadership before you can make much concrete progress toward peace.
PeaceMaker is not a game for someone who is looking for a quick thrill or an easy diversion. You will have to make careful, well-reasoned choices to be successful. But if you're willing to think about your games -- and if you're interested in the concept -- PeaceMaker will be a very rewarding experience.

The PeaceMaker video-game challenges you to succeed as a leader where others have failed. Experience the joy of bringing peace to the Middle East or the agony of plunging the region into disaster. PeaceMaker will test your skills, assumptions and prior knowledge. Play it and you will never read the news the same way again. Reviews: "Peacemaker is part of a new generation: games that immerse people in the real world, full of real-time political crises. And the games' designers aren't just selling a voyeuristic thrill. Games, they argue, can be more than just mindless fun, they can be a medium for change." - The New York Times. "Unlike most serious games, it aims to bridge the gap between education and entertainment and reach a mass market." -CNN. "It provides a challenge that literally kept me up at night." -Robert Janelle, Suite 101.Playable in Arabic, English, and Hebrew.
