PeaceMaker is a government simulation game developed by Impact Games and released in 2007, available on PC (Microsoft Windows), Mac, iOS, and Android. The game places the player in the role of either the Israeli Prime Minister or the Palestinian President, tasking them with navigating the complexities of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict in pursuit of a two-state solution. Drawing on real-world events, news footage, and geopolitical dynamics, the simulation challenges players to balance competing political pressures, respond to crises, and make diplomatic and policy decisions. Actions taken on one side directly influence conditions on the other, creating a dynamic system that reflects the interconnected nature of the conflict. PeaceMaker is notable for applying the simulation genre to a real and ongoing geopolitical situation, framing the material as an educational tool rather than a conventional entertainment experience.
