Comet

In Comet, a solitaire game from Brad Smith (That Others May Live), you help allied airmen who are shot down in World War II escape from occupied Europe. There were several escape lines — networks of safehouses, forgers, and civilian guides — but the most famous of these was the Comet Line, running from Belgium through France and Spain to British Gibraltar. Real people along this line, many of them teenaged girls, are represented in this game, as well as the real challenges they faced. Given the nature of the work, infiltration by the Gestapo was unavoidable, and the threat of capture was omnipresent. More than eight hundred members of the Comet Line were arrested; about three hundred were executed, or died in concentration camps.
