Molleindustria is an Italian guerrilla semiotics and culture jamming website〔Grindon (2008) p.36 quote: 〕 that produces flash videogames based on provocative left-wing socio-political points of view, like on topics like labour market flexibility and Queer theory, in explicit opposition with the mainstream video game industry.〔Williams and Smith (2007) p.247 quote: 〕 They feature games like ''Queer Power'', ''Faith Fighter'' and the ''McDonald's Videogame''. In June 2007 the game ''Operazione: Pretofilia'' (Operation: Pedopriest), inspired by the controversial BBC documentary ''Sex Crimes and the Vatican'', was removed from the site after a point of order in the Italian Parliament called "Countermeasures to the religions' offences".〔(Operation Pedopriest: Banned )〕 In April 2009, Molleindustria initially bowed to complaints from the Organisation of the Islamic Conference by removing Faith Fighter from their site,〔(Jesus vs. Mohammed? Video Game Upsets Islamic Group )〕 but later put up a new version that gives the player the choice between a full and a censored version. Molleindustria has later started producing a mock sequel that sarcastically pretends to promote religious pluralism and tolerance.〔(Nixed 'Faith Fighter' Game Gets Lovey-Dovey Sequel )〕 Both games have since been put back on the website. In September 2011, Molleindustria released a game entitled ''Phone Story'' for smartphones that was promptly banned from the Apple iTunes Phone Story focused on what Molleindustira called the "dark side" of smartphone manufacturing. When Apple banned the game Molleindustria released the game for the Android market. All the funds raised from the game were donated. The game is now available for free online. ==List of Molleindustria games== *''Tamatipico'' - a game based on the life of a worker. *''Tuboflex'' - a game based on the need of human resources. *''Orgasm Simulator'' - a game based on how women sometimes fake orgasms. *''Enduring Indymedia'' - a game based on the FBI seizing Indymedia web servers. *''Queer Power'' - a game based on how queers change gender roles. *''McDonald's Videogame'' - a game based on how the fast food industry works. *''Operation: Pedopriest'' - a game based on the sexual abuse cases of the Catholic Church. *''Faith Fighter'' - a game based on religious intolerance. *''The Free Culture Game'' - a game based on the struggle between free culture and copyright laws. *''Oiligarchy'' - a game based on how the oil industry works. *''Every Day the Same Dream'' - a game about short existence, alienation, and refusal of labor *''Memory Reloaded'' - a game based on recent issues in the world. *''Leaky World'' - a game based on the issues of Wikileaks. *''Phone Story'' - a game that looks at the hidden world of smart-phone manufacturing. *''Inside a Dead Skyscraper'' - a game about the September 11 World Trade Center attacks. *''Unmanned'' - a game about the life of an unmanned drone pilot.
