Not replaceable with
free media because
(WP:NFCC#1)

(WP:NFCC#1)
The Life & Death game, including its simulation of medical surgery and examinations, is used primarily via a visual interface which includes simulation of a real-life environment. The screenshot provides informative details about the game's style, along with the level of visual detail and the emphasis on realism, and assists with visual identification and interpreting critical commentary in a way that words alone would not.
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) This screenshot is of lower resolution than the original and comprises a very small part of the Life & Death software. In addition, the screenshot is used only in this article which is specifically about the software from which the screenshot was taken and the article contains only one screenshot from the software.
Respect for
commercial opportunities
(WP:NFCC#2)
The screenshot is being used in this article to provide illustrative and informative details in conjunction with encyclopedic information and to assist users in interpreting critical commentary about the software. These uses are different from the original market uses of decoration and marketing software. In addition, a single low resolution screenshot should not replace the market for higher resolution screenshots or for the Life & Death software itself. It should not be possible to generate illegitimate copies of the software from this single screenshot.
