The game forces players to deal with an oppressive government that is about to introduce a bill that will dismantle independent media outlets. So it’s up to the player to decide how the last 12 weeks of the titular newspaper will occur. Do they try to make a difference by reporting the truth, or go all-in on supporting the government?
The Westport Independent features:
– Change the content and meaning of your articles by censoring them to your liking. While you can’t lie, you don’t have to tell the whole truth either.
– Employees with fleshed out character, who will not only react to your actions, but also discuss them with other colleagues.
– Receive letters and messages from public figures, rebel leaders, employees and other characters affected by your actions.
– Adaptive stories where your actions affect the opinions of the people, which affects what happens in the city, which in turn affects the stories you receive.
