    The best interactive entertainment I've tried

    This was mostly fun, but it had a really eerie undertone at times. Worth every penny. Why not give smaller studios a chance. Hollywood has lost it's imagination.

    I'm giving it a high rating based on their budget and the fact that there are no other similar experience to be had at this time. Is it perfect? No. Is it better than the movies hollywood delivered last year? In my opinion, yes.

    This interactive game/movie will give you at least 8-10 hours of content, and there is more on the way.

    Also, a big shoutout to the cast. It's really refreshing to see new faces and I came to love all of the in the course of the playthrough. I hope to see much more from all of them.

    Masterpiece

    This gem turned out to be one of my favorites game of all time. I love the humor and I love the eerie feeling it gets, even more. The actors do an awesome job, the music is fantastic and I couldn't help but laugh out loud at times just to sob at other scenes just minutes later. The gameplay is interesting and fun, it can be as challenging as you want it to be.

    The amount of different endings is very high and I enjoyed every playthrough as much as the first one, always trying to get to know more about the world, the stories behind the different topics and characters. English is not my native language and still, I didn't have the feeling to miss out on anything, I understood everything pretty well and the subtitles are well done. Also good to play in VR.

    Worth every penny, the released DLCs are a fun and welcomed addition and I can't wait to play more of it!

    Hits home in all the right departments

    Not For Broadcast is an FMV story-telling dystopian drama game. You play as Alex, a janitor turned broadcaster after the previous broadcaster left you to it. The game has about 6 hours of playtime per play through. The game prides itself on having a satirical and comedic tone to political statements. The game also has a poke at current events, such as covid lockdowns. The jokes are well-written and very witty, guaranteed to give you a laugh. All the actors are very convincing, and any cheesiness of some acting only adds to the game's charm. The game also adapts to your choices, with there being many endings for the player to discover. In addition, you, Alex, are never gendered. Along with your partner, Sam. This allows anyone to have an easy time envisioning themselves as Alex, as well as having their partner coincide with their preferred gender.

    A 10/10 for me. Well written, witty, and thought-provoking.
