The Occupied Keep the street alive.

The Occupied is a single-player squad action game for iPhone and iPad, in development. You lead a small group through a fictional occupied neighbourhood to protect its people and restore the services that let ordinary life continue: bread returns, water flows, lights come on.

One thumb, five fighters

Drag one thumbstick and the squad moves and fires on its own.

People are the objective

Every neighbour is a person with their own health and story, not decoration.

Restore the neighbourhood

Bread returns, water flows, lights come on and families reach safety.

Supplies are finite

Grenades, a rocket launcher for tanks and two recon scans per district.

News from the street

Each mission opens on a newsprint front page.

Routes that carry people

Bridges, interiors, tunnels, roofs and zip lines move the same people and equipment across them.

Inside The Occupied

Questions about The Occupied

Is The Occupied out?

Not yet. It is in development for iPhone and iPad.

Do you have to defeat every enemy?

No. Human outcomes matter more than extermination: winning means getting people home and services running.

Is it graphic?

No. Combat is stylised and non-graphic, with no gore, blood or detailed wounds.

Where is it set?

In a fictional neighbourhood that draws on Palestinian civilian life, architecture and collective care.

What happens if you fail a mission?

Retry is free, and the game tells you who was lost and why.

How are missions scored?

Each awards up to three flags: Mission, People (everyone home) and Steady.
