How close does the game get to the real place?
In the game
A busy medina market in Marrakesh, with a fictional Swedish consulate and a school being used as a temporary military base.
The real place
IOI promised a maze of alleys, souks along the medina walls and Marrakesh's rooftop terraces; the consulate and the school are fictional. Jemaa el-Fnaa, the medina's main square, is on UNESCO's Intangible Cultural Heritage list.
Visiting
Jemaa el-Fnaa is liveliest from late afternoon into the evening. The rooftop cafés around the square give the same high view over the souks as the level.
