Hong Kong police banned the mobile game "Reversed Front: Bonfire", which allows players to pledge allegiance to groups opposing the Chinese Communist Party, citing sedition concerns under the national security law. Authorities warned users to uninstall the game, and the app was removed from app stores in Hong Kong. The game's creators, ESC Taiwan, have seemingly welcomed the publicity, while the ban highlights ongoing tensions and the shrinking space for dissent in the city since the 2019 pro-democracy protests.
