Moneyhorse games announced it’s newest game “Glorious Leader”
Have you ever wanted to embody North Korean leader Kim Jong Un? You can have him ride unicorns, fight Americans and play basketball with Dennis Rodman. It’s every bit as entertaining as it sounds.
Moneyhorse has issued a press release to arouse enthusiasm for the game’s debut:
The Democratic People’s Republic of Korea commands you to know that the capitalistic pigs at Moneyhorse LLC, are developing Glorious Leader! , an epic tale about the triumph of Kim Jong Un over the entire American army. Battle through 7 unique levels as you defeat waves of imperialists, combat over-the-top bosses, and ride unicorns!
Glorious Leader! is coming soon to PC and something called a mobile device. Finally, you will know why North Korea truly is the best Korea
Since I’m too pretty to have an opinion about a story involving capitalism, politics, technology, and international travel, I called my friend Paul to weigh in on the topic.
Paul Beaudry, is a Canadian lawyer who traveled to North Korea in 2011 and has since expressed remorse about traveling there. I asked if he thought it might be encouraging the totalitarian leader.
“I don’t see much harm in it, as it makes fun of the regime and its propaganda machine,” Beaudry said. “That being said, people who play the game shouldn’t forget that Kim Jong-un and his entourage are more than a bunch of weirdos who assert their power by feeding absurd, but inoffensive white lies to their people. The North Korean regime is one of the most cruel and murderous regimes in modern history. Mocking the regime is not sufficient. It must be condemned in the strongest terms.”
