The company, Kuma Games, makes a series of "Kuma(backslash)War" games that come in short, 10- to 15-minute episodes. The scenarios are usually nabbed from the news, and like documentary films, they seek to be as accurate as possible in chronicling real-life situations. Players can simulate events such as the killing of  http://www.foxnews.com/topics/politics/iraq/osama-bin-laden.htm#r_src=ramp - Osama Bin Laden , Afghan air strikes or the death of  http://www.foxnews.com/topics/politics/muammar-gaddafi.htm#r_src=ramp - Moammar Gadhafi . There's also "Assault on  http://www.foxnews.com/topics/iran.htm#r_src=ramp - Iran ," about the country's nuclear ambitions.
