Blacksite: Area 51

Although clearly a fantastical premise, the game contains lots of references to real-life current events such as suicide bombers in an attempt to ground it in reality. A first-person shooter that’s fun to play and socially relevant? We shit you not. The first mission is set in war-torn Iraq where you’re topped up with all the firepower the game has to offer, only to lose it in the next level when you enter the town of Rachel, Nevada and make your way through Area 51 itself. You’ll also hear your three team-mates arguing over various subjects including the ethics of going to war.
