The
Name of the Brother
The Name of the Brother, which came out in 1996, represented the first attempt
in Austria to incorporate political content
into a thoroughly modern computer game. First
person view, then used primarily for so-called shooter games, involves the
fight against an extreme right-wing dictator in a city state in the near future. This
can take place by various means, ranging from information campaigns to underground
activities, which achieve different degrees of success in deposing the dictator. Further
information on the game please visit:
