Fantasy Game - Counter ^3 Strike

So, the new Counter ^3 Strike is out. It takes place in what was once the state of Palestine, but has been been slowly deleted for the past 30 years. The game starts with shooting and grenade launching practice, guided by your taste and smell of the environment. I know, so unbelievable! When choosing your weapon, your are able to lick the material and smell the use of modern bullets or old gun powder. This leads you to your second choice, your station. Your choices are limited to: Israel, Iran, Lebanon, and Syria. You cannot see these places, but you sure can smell the local cooking and lifestyle (licking may not help much in this option). Now that you have chosen your conditions, it's onto the battlefield. The mission, of course, kill your enemy. Once you have killed a member of the opposing nation, you must claim the body by smelling their newly-dead flesh. Similarly, when you become injured in combat, you must lick your bloody wounds to update your health status. They are so realistic, for good and bad! When the missions are completed, you get a home cooked meal to 'sense' (smell and taste) from the local restaurant (given you didn't kill the cook). The meal is good and off to the next mission. What lies ahead? Perhaps a falafel, dead Israeli soldier or Hanukkah treat! Enjoy the taste and smells!
