You did say two contradictory things here. You said they won't interfere, but also the only thing they care about is staying in power. This isn't exclusive to them, but they will use it to maintain their power if it's useful for that. If a game was going to be critical of them, it probably won't be made. (It probably wouldn't have been anyway, because the only thing that could come from it, for the former owners, is losing investments.) Yeah, they don't care about Islam. That's fair game, but they aren't.
