Newsgame. Web-based, so gets around the Apps Store ban.

Short newsgame simulating choices confronting Syrian refugess. "The Syrian conflict has torn the country apart, leaving thousands dead and driving millions to flee their homes. Many seek refuge in neighbouring countries but others pay traffickers to take them to Europe - risking death, capture and deportation. If you were fleeing Syria for Europe, what choices would you make for you and your family?"

Did those papers freak out because of the very idea of a newsgame, or that it simulates a current conflict?

Nice instance.

Good example of a newsgame.
