In this context, Fourteen Years of Flames emerges, a Chinese video game that seeks to offer an alternative perspective, focusing on the Second Sino-Japanese War, a conflict in which an estimated 21.3 million Chinese died between 1937 and 1945, which some historians refer to as the &#8220;Asian Holocaust.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Deeply Anti-Japanese Game<\/h2>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Developed by Fenghuo Studio, Fourteen Years of Flames resembles a Chinese Call of Duty, focusing on a narrative first-person shooter (FPS) with cinematic ambition. However, unlike <strong>Activision&#8217;s installments, which tackle more well-known conflicts, this title allows players to explore a lesser-known chapter of history, the atrocities suffered by the Chinese population during the Japanese invasion.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Fourteen Years of Flames \u70fd\u706b\u5341\u56db | New Chinese Indie Historical First Person Shooter\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/aXbqFhnutuQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The game serves a dual purpose: it not only seeks to entertain but also to educate, promoting historical awareness about the calamities of conflict. Players embody seven key characters throughout 16 real historical events<strong>, exploring from the rural areas of the northeast to Chongqing, one of the most bombed capitals of World War II.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With a representation of weapons, equipment, and scenarios so true to history that a 1:1 model is used, the game seeks to accurately reflect war. Although its narrative is based on characters that did not exist, they are inspired by real stories, thus allowing for a more balanced account<strong>. Although Fourteen Years of Flames does not yet have a release date or translations into other languages, it stands out as a unique proposal in the field of video games<\/strong>, challenging conventional narratives and digging into a historical wound that is still open for China.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"sc-card-program\">\r\n  <div class=\"sc-card-program__body\">\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row clearfix\">\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-logo\">\r\n        <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sc-card-program__img\" alt=\"Steam\" src=\"https:\/\/images.sftcdn.net\/images\/t_app-icon-s\/p\/3047d89c-96d0-11e6-8546-00163ed833e7\/2505233623\/steam-download.jpg\" width=\"100px\" height=\"100px\">\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-title\">\r\n        <span class=\"sc-card-program__title\">Steam<\/span>\r\n        <a class=\"sc-card-program__button sc-card-program-internal\" href=\"https:\/\/steam.softonic.com\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">DOWNLOAD<\/a>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-rating\">\r\n        <svg class=\"rating-score__content\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" version=\"1.1\" x=\"0\" y=\"0\" viewbox=\"0 0 50 50\" enable-background=\"new 0 0 50 50\" xml:space=\"preserve\"><path class=\"rating-score__background rating-score--good\" fill=\"none\" stroke-width=\"6\" stroke-miterlimit=\"10\" d=\"M40 40c8.3-8.3 8.3-21.7 0-30s-21.7-8.3-30 0 -8.3 21.7 0 30\"><\/path><path class=\"rating-score__value rating-score__value--0\" fill=\"none\" stroke-width=\"6\" stroke-dashoffset=\"0\" stroke-miterlimit=\"10\" d=\"M40 40c8.3-8.3 8.3-21.7 0-30s-21.7-8.3-30 0 -8.3 21.7 0 30\"><\/path><text class=\"rating-score__number\" content=\"\" text-anchor=\"middle\" transform=\"matrix(1 0 0 1 25 31.0837)\" data-auto=\"app-user-score\"><\/text><\/svg>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row\">\r\n      <span class=\"sc-card-program__description\"><\/span>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row\">\r\n      <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sc-card-program__bigpic\" src=\"\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\">\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <a class=\"sc-card-program__link track-link sc-card-program-internal\" href=\"https:\/\/steam.softonic.com\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><\/a>\r\n  <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The world of video games is at the crossroads between the faithful representation of historical facts and militarized propaganda.
