Soviet city-builder PC game Workers & Resources: Soviet Republic has been struck by a DMCA copyright violation issued by an angry fan.

The claim has been made by a fan of the game who wanted to be included in the game's credits, but has since gone rogue."Recently we got the first enemy of our Soviet Republic," afrom 3Division's Peter Adamcik reads in response."This enemy is making our life harder and significantly slowing down the development process.

The fan has published a guide on how to play the game more realistically. While the developer said it would be happy to include the fan in the credits, he instead has issued a number of copyright strikes. "But this guy reported our website, and the website was taken down. He also reported our video about the last content update where realistic mode was introduced, and the video was taken down. He was successful because those reports are handled by BOTs, not humans. We will issue our reactions, and hopefully we will get answers soon from human employees of YouTube and Wix, who can evaluate his actual claims and agree that this is nonsense.
