I have wanted this for years but no developer has the balls/ovaries to do it except from the occupier side. I think the best I've found (besides some board games) is actually a text based game by Tarn Adams, one of the devs who made dwarf fortress: Liberal Crime Squad - "To some a dream come true, to others an offensive piece of crap." you essentially play urban terrorists loosely based on the Symbionese Liberation Army complete with police shootouts and kidnapping and psychic torture with LSD. It's pretty funny with surprisingly satisfying gameplay.

lol LCS is a blast from the past. Wonder how it holds up politically. I played it when I was a radlib and looking back the game title is pretty accurate. The games is basically a radlib adventurism simulator. I don't recall any solid politics or theory grounding, just vibes. But it had it's heart in the right place - the overall goal is antifascist after all.
