Not For Broadcast

Rarely do you find games these days that could be described as a combination of “ambitious,” “thought-provoking,” “hard-hitting,” “hilarious” and “extremely fun,” but somehow Not For Broadcast delivers on that front. It’s truly a unique gem with terrifically-varied gameplay, a perfectly-absurd sense of humor with impressive writing and performances, and a story guaranteed to throw you for a loop. Not For Broadcast is a bizarre masterpiece and one not afraid to gleefully mock everything it sees in the most over-the-top yet devastating ways possible, and for that, it deserves top honors. So that’s our report, and have a peaceful night…

Not For Broadcast provides players with a seamless simulator experience, steadily building tension while maintaining constant satirical humor. The propaganda simulator is worthy of several playthroughs to unlock various endings and experience different dialogue, but the game’s humor is enough to make any player come back for more.

Not for Broadcast is a witty, hilarious satire of the world of media. It teaches you not to trust your TV set and makes you genuinely pity the poor bloke who tries to manipulate you.

Not For Broadcast ambitiously challenges the player to reconsider their ethical framework, political values, and personal loyalties through its incredibly clever combination of stressful management sim gameplay and acid-tongued writing. It’s not for the faint of heart, but balances its dystopian terrors with biting satire. With exceptional performances from its cast, a unique and varied system of mechanics that changes with each broadcast, and tonnes of extra story content, any budding media mogul will be both delighted and horrified with all that Not For Broadcast has to offer.

Not For Broadcast is an extremely entertaining satire inspired by modern politics and journalism focused on scandal and propaganda. The actors' performances on screen are perfect and make time spent watching hilarious commercials or public scandals even more entertaining.

Entertaining, funny and thought-provoking in all the right places, Not For Broadcast is a hugely engrossing foray into the nightly news arena. You’ll laugh your face off at times, but like the best satire, it’s also disquieting enough to have you uncomfortably squirming in your seat.

Playing Not For Broadcast for the first time is akin to having a waking nightmare. [Issue#369, p.121]

One of the best games I've ever played, it contains a funny story with unexpected things, I had seen a gameplay of the game and I really liked it, then I decided to play it and I had a lot of fun, I also got angry.

Смешанные чувства. Идея игры - очень крутая, но разрабы её не вытянули. Все эти вещи за которыми надо следить во время эфира (радиоволна и прочее) - очень сильно душат и отвлекают от самого интересного - управления эфиром. При этом сами эфиры зачастую неинтересные, во время некоторых следил за таймером и ждал когда это уже закончится. Игра могла бы быть горааааздо интереснее.

Un gameplay et un thème original (la manipulation des médias et la réalisation d'émission TV) mais quelques ratés dans la narration. En effet on a du mal parfois a faire le lien entre nos choix perso et pro sur l'histoire ainsi que l'influence réelle que l'on a sur l'histoire. Apparemment il y a 14 fins possibles, mais comme le jeu se présente comme du travail, c'est compliqué de se remettre dedans pour les déverrouiller. Jeu terminé en 9h

Great actors play, however the game doesn't allow you to show picky moments, scandal scenes, or any unappropriated dirty content. You should follow the script simply choosing the images and fixing the broadcast. So disappointing....wasted potential

While I love this kind of original game... This ****.. the broadcasts are so boring and almost impossible to watch.. the gameplay is also terrible and mega boring...
