Google pulls game called "Bomb Gaza" |
Google has pulled "Bomb Gaza" from the Google Play Store. The game made
light of the current conflict going on in the region between Israel and
the Palestinians. There were a number of complaints about the game,
which had been downloaded about 1000 times since being launched on July
29th. Those playing the game were given the role of being the Israeli
military, bombing Gaza. The goal of the game was to "
drop bombs and avoid killing civilians."
Amazingly,
the maturity level of the game was given a "low" listing, which means
that it was considered appropriate for younger kids to play. A Google
spokesman said that games that violate its policies are removed. The
precise policy that "Bomb Gaza" violated was not mentioned.
Another
game called "Gaza Assault: Code Red" has also apparently been pulled
from the Google Play Store, despite garnering a five-star rating.
