Discharged
Country: USA
Discharged is a an art game exploring the experiences of a Latinx veteran returning home and reacclimating to civilian life. In the prologue, you play as a teen recruited to join the military. Upon returning from combat duty, you must make your way back to your house. Bureaucracy, apathy, ICE agents and a lack of understanding stand in your way. Discharged critiques the glamorized depiction of military combat presented in commercial videogames such as Call of Duty and criticizes the US military’s use of videogames to recruit teens from low-income, Latinx households.
