Interesting that western media can't seem to report any details on this game, some conflicting reports on if it's a mobile or PC game. Frustrating that nowhere online seems to have any details at all. I want to see some game play of Yankee Hunter, or even get a download.

There's also been a VR game developed there, which surprises me.

My sister's friend knows someone who has a contact who visited DPRK and they said that Kim Jong Un forces everyone to play this game at gun-point and if someone scores below 90% accomplishment they broadcast their name and picture on state news and order everyone to laugh at them on the streets and call them a noob. If people don't laugh at them, they are killed along with their entire families.

@rainpizza @MasterBlaster They have a lot of really cool-looking games. I'm a big Squirrel & Hedgehog fan, and there's at least a couple games for both mobile and arcades, and probably PC, too, that we've only gotten to see glimpses of.

But yeah, the DPRK actually has thriving IT and development fields. Hacking cryptobros could probably be considered a major sector in their economy at this point.
