"Not an even-handed view, but a good opinion game."
If you're going to show the conflict, show both sides, please. I have yet to see a game that is even-handed on this. Israel has launched attacks at Gaza for years as well.
I am not taking sides in the argument, so do not downvote me for political reasons. I would just like to see an even-handed look at BOTH sides.
The game itself, I will give a six. I am not voting on the the politics (I happen to view both sides as wrong.) I love games that try to portray serious matters and attempt to educate. I just wish this was more in-depth.
The main hit was artwork and some glitches I encountered.
I invite you to discuss this with me. Perhaps read my review on the "Raid Gaza" game.

"Political, controversial, and serves its purpose."
I look at all the fighting between both sides of the argument in the comments, and I just shake my head, because they're missing the point. This game was meant to provoke emotion and discussion. Not all games are "happy fun time".
The conflict on both sides is wrong, however, I would be upset too if I was forced off my land and treated like a prisoner. Right now the attacks by Israel are VERY disproportionate, killing hundreds of innocent children and citizens. The more they bomb citizens, the more Palestinians will hate them. Israel has shut down borders, blocked aid, attacked U.S. journalists, bombed schools, and has publicly declared its intents to remove the remaining Palestinians it cannot control.
I am not anti-Semantic. I am anti-Zionist. There is a large difference. People blast the maker of this game for not knowing what goes on over there. Well, I do. I've seen the videos. Israeli bulldozers destroying innocent peoples home. Helicopters firing missiles into residential streets and coming back for a second pass. Children dying from shrapnel. Constant sniper fire from Israeli guard posts into streets where children play.
So much blood has been shed over these people's gods and their precious holy land. It makes me sick.
Why should the Palestinians, who had nothing to do with the Holocaust, have to constantly suffer as a result? It makes no sense. If the Jews are entitled to their own "homeland," how come the Palestinians aren't entitled to their homeland as well? What makes it ok to uproot and displace hundreds of thousands of Palestinians, essentially wiping Palestine off the map? Nothing within the bounds of humanity would justify such an act.
The "Right of Return" states that all refugees that have been displaced may return to their homes. This does not exist for Palestinians. Palestinians are often denied the right to return to their homeland while simultaneously, Jews from around the world leave their home country to live on stolen land. By definition, it could be argued that many of these Jews are not refugees, as many are of European descent whose ancestors converted many years prior. Meanwhile, these Palestinians who have lived on and worked their land for eons are being forced out and into refugee camps for decades at a time.

"this doesn't follow the rules of mancala"
Captures in mancala only count when you hit an empty square on your opponents side, not your own as well. Major gameplay flaw.

Hopefully the full version will be released soon. I for one look forward to it.

Well, I earned the shirt reward, but it doesn't seem to do anything when I try to use it.
There should really be a cheat option. Some of the requirements, like combos, are hell. Oftentimes I'd almost hit the 50 mark and the ball would glitch and go through the sound bar. Then I would lose everything.
There sound also be an option to view all sex positions that you earn as you build up your combo.

Well, the graphics were nice. However, the gameplay itself for the most part was horrible. I mean really... the have to be the worst pickup lines I have ever heard, and you have to try them at random. I don't like having to chose through dialog that basically equates women to meat.
The massage section was equally random. I had to use the tab key to find the various "hot spots", and figuring out that stroking the sides will allow you to play with the right breast but not the left, it just doesn't follow logic.
Still, the grahpics are nice, so ten stars for that. However, I'm subtracting 6 stars for the pain I suffered while having to read those horrid pickup lines, then realizing I was supposed to be the character saying them.

I'm disappointed. You claim this will be the last in the series. Great graphics and sound fit that, but the extras... more then half of them involve outright torture.
Electric shock torture, nipples being sawed off from the inside, alien rape...
If I desired to see that kind of stuff I would watch a S&M film.
For the last one in the series, I expected more "happy" extras. Therefore, you're getting a 7 instead of a 10.
