About the game
In July 1922, the citizen of Parma's popular neighborhoods massively adhered to the national strike proclaimed against fascist violence. The fascists decided to give an exemplary lesson to the city: the first days of August thousands of 'black shirts' started arriving from all over Italy, laying siege to the city. The citizens - united in an anti-fascist front - prepared to resist, barricading themselves the neighborhoods of Oltretorrente and Naviglio. Una Vittoria Impossibile: Le Barricate di Parma del 1922 ("An Impossible Victory: The Parma Barricades of 1922") tells the story of those days of resistance. You will lead the people of the city in repelling the attack of the fascist squads. Only by cooperating with each other, providing for the needs of the city and by building barricades to repel the fascist squads you can hope to achieve an 'Impossible Victory,' to be consigned to history and legend.
