The Bosnian War begins in the early 1990s, leading to severe sieges and civilian hardship, events that inspired This War of Mine's portrayal of wartime survival.
One of the longest sieges in modern warfare history, the Siege of Sarajevo saw civilians trapped in a city under constant attack and bombardment, much like the scenarios in This War of Mine.
The video game This War of Mine is released, offering a unique perspective on war by focusing on civilian survival during conflict rather than combat itself.

One of my favorite games ever. Does anyone else remember the promotional VHS tape that Nintendo Power sent out to promote this game? As a kid, that was the coolest thing. I bought a Super Nintendo because of it.
Easy Delivery Co. is such a wonderful gem of a game. If you have a retro driving itch, this is a great pick. I was looking for an atmospheric driving game, and this satisfied that itch perfectly. While the graphics are PS1 era, the snow brought me back to the Donkey Kong Country snow/blizzard level - and it was just perfect. Highly recommend checking this one out.
