For many of us games like Fallout were the first time survival and first person shooters came in the post apocalypse setting (granted the survival elements were thin even for the times). Due to the majority of war shooters taking warfare and sexing it up with Michael Bay explosions, flashy gunplay and stoic men of action; whereas survival titles usually put us in the shoes of the disgruntled, the broken and the frail characters who must overcome all odds in a much grimmer setting. This is fine of course as theyre both ways to make you feel very different emotions. Then came along titles like Metro 2033 gave us a more human aspect to the setting and Spec Ops The Line flipped the war genre on its head, so when one dev team by the name of 11 bit studios (makers of the reverse tower defence Anomaly series) read over an interview that told of a man who survived the siege of a city in Bosnia early 1990 the sparks were ignited and therein born the initial concept for This War of Mine.
