While in general we seek to bring our games to as many potential players as possible, we believe strongly that developers have the right to control where their games are sold. In this case, the developer asked us to block sale in Israel. In the absence of more organized sanctions, this act is intended to demonstrate solidarity with Palestine.
We fully support their decision.
