Quest for Saddam is a first-person shooter video game released by Petrilla Entertainment on May 14, 2003. With a gameplay style similar to Doom and a humorous approach to the plot, the goal is to fight Iraqi soldiers and eventually to kill Saddam Hussein.[1] The game was later modded by the Global Islamic Media Front (an al-Qaeda propaganda organization) in Quest for Bush, which changed the game's premise to kill the game's boss, President George W. Bush.[2][3]
