Liyla And The Shadows Of War
''Liyla and the Shadows of War'' is a 2016 freeware video game released for mobile platforms and Microsoft Windows. It follows the struggles of a Palestinian family's attempts to survive a series of armed attacks in their neighbourhood. Inspired by actual events which took place during a specific phase of the Israeli–Palestinian conflict, the 2014 Gaza War, the game aims to raise awareness about the treatment of Palestinian civilians in the Gaza Strip by Israeli security forces.

War Of Shadows
War is an intense armed conflict between states, governments, societies, or paramilitary groups such as mercenaries, insurgents, and militias. It is generally characterized by extreme violence, destruction, and mortality, using regular or irregular military forces. Warfare refers to the common activities and characteristics of types of war, or of wars in general. Total war is warfare that is not restricted to purely legitimate military targets, and can result in massive civilian or other non-combatant suffering and casualties. While some war studies scholars consider war a universal and ancestral aspect of human nature, others argue it is a result of specific socio-cultural, economic or ecological circumstances. Etymology The English word ''war'' derives from the 11th-century Old English words ''wyrre'' and ''werre'', from Old French ''werre'' (also ''guerre'' as in modern French), in turn from the Frankish *''werra'', ultimately deriving from the Proto-Germanic *''we ...
