About this game

Get ready to run the National Nightly News in Not For Broadcast VR!

A nation tunes in, and you get to decide what’s fit for broadcast. Pick the most exciting (or scandalous) camera angles, bleep the swears and determine which ads to run to keep the sponsors happy. No pressure, right? I mean, who pays attention to the news anyway?

The award-winning darkly comedic game of televised chaos that critics have called a “Bizarre masterpiece” and “Quite possibly the best FMV game ever"! Not For Broadcast VR takes the gameplay, story, and gripping dark comedy of the original award-winning FMV adventure and brings you closer to the news than ever.

*Frame the picture (and the debate)*

Keep the general public entertained with your editing skills.

*Keep it PG*

Smash that big red CENSOR button to keep rude words (and other sensitive information) off the air. Keep the news safe for children and oppressive political regimes alike.

*Hand-pick the headlines*

There’s more news to see than a single broadcast can possibly contain, so someone (that’s you) gets to choose what goes on air.

*Cue the ads*

Powerful as you are, they’re really not paying you enough here. Some hand-picked (if slightly sketchy) sponsors might help pad that bank balance, and provide some laughs along the way.

*The show must go on!*

Nothing will stop the National Nightly News, not even existential threats! Keep broadcasting no matter how bizarre things get. News stops for no-one, not even a category 5 storm!

It's alright

The game succeeds more in its political messaging than anything else. It really shows you know how the media can influence opinions and how stuff behind the scenes is not as it seems. The gameplay loop felt a bit boring after a while, though. It just felt like I was doing a job. I suppose…

It's [beep]ing out there! :)

I got to day 154 (about 40 to 50% complete), and decided to abandon the game. I've enjoyed what I've experienced. It's definitely a very unique game with OTT British humour similar to Monty Python? I enjoyed it but it would not be to a lot of ppls taste (especially as it differs to…
