Not For Broadcast Reviews

I have never been happier to be traumatised by something, i want to go in a corner and cry in the fetal position after THAT ending. ...... 100% a must play.

super fun game with an interesting story and way of telling it. all your choices matter and there like 14 different endings you can get.

This is probably the funnest weird... game? I've ever played. The mini game mechanics are pretty fun, with some occasional annoying one. All adjustable apparently in the settings. The story is fun, and acting is good. Nobody is going to win an Oscar but I would not be surprised if we see a few of these actors later in other television/movies. I find the absurdity of moments in the game funny. The made up items entertaining, and the paranoia creeping perfect. The most satisfying part for me is the editing. But even coming back and watching the tapes of scenes you cut a way from is entertaining and often insightful and helps push the story along. My one gripe, is that when you are in the background/family/home story boards, I'd like more choices. I'm often presented with only one option. Perhaps that's my play through perhaps not but more impactful choices would be appreciated.

Probably one of the best stories I've had the pleasure of experiencing in a long while. While the game did feel slow at times, the drip feed of the story just kept me coming back. Would 100% recommend if you don't mind slow burn stories.

CNN simulator Very funny and addictive gameplay

Lots of content and production value for what you're paying. Great experience.

3.5/5 Great game, I recommend it Not For Broadcast is a really cool management game, you have to live edit the local news station. I found out about this game when it first released and played the demo, but I was on a bad laptop that could not run the game. Make sure before you buy you reach the requirements as this game is obviously very demanding. I finally got a chance to play it recently all the way through and I am happy I bought it back when I did. Choices in the game matter a lot, there are 14 endings with 4 major paths. Getting every ending will be a headache to be honest with you, but it's not required for any achievements. I think the main thing you should know is that the plot and the humour in my opinion greatly overtake the actual gameplay. While I do think the game is fun it only actually gets challenging when you do the harder challenges in the challenge room. The camera switching and other distractions got boring after a bit. A lot of work went into the game, it's insane and there is so much content and attention to detail. The game is hilarious and has a lot of commentary on politics. [b]Bugs & Problems:[/b] No massive bugs, there are really small visual bugs that are distracting, but don't affect the game. Plenty of problems I have with this game though, first of all I find a lot of the time the camera switching is inconsistent and for longer monologues you have to switch away from the person speaking so as to not lose viewers for staying on a camera too long. It just doesn’t make much logical sense and makes it difficult to time. In the finale my boss complains about literally any decision I make with the reaction buttons. There are too many musical sequences where you can time cameras with the music, just not fun. Need a way to fast forward certain bits. The amount of time it takes to do a run is ridiculous when just aiming for a certain ending. Way too many written lore bits between news segments, I feel like some of them could just be things seen on the news. [b]Story:[/b] Great story, really fun characters. Hilarious in general. We stan advance even if they suck and we love making fun of Alan James. Mocks both right leaning and left leaning politics, I see people specifically picking out jokes on right wing politics which just seems ignorant and hand picked for the sake of putting the game off. [b]Gameplay & controls:[/b] Everything works fine. A good amount of accessibility controls, even the ability to omit certain elements you might find difficult to do. A couple gripes I have however is first of all the game wants you to often switch cameras every 5 seconds or so or you lose viewers, issue is that at some points it doesn’t make sense to switch cameras in for example longer monologues. Also at some points it is very unclear which camera is the one you are supposed to switch to, especially the last broadcast which does not follow the style of any broadcast beforehand and doesn’t make it clear what you should be doing. [b]Visual design:[/b] The broadcast room is very pretty with the lighting, some of the video is really low quality I think because some of it is cropped or has weird filters. [b]Music and SFX:[/b] The music is fantastic, I don’t think they were the highest quality, but they really complimented the game a ton. So many tracks made just for the many endings and I listened to them because they were fun. A lot of earworm tracks. [b]Achievements:[/b] A bit random, no achievement for getting all endings, not too difficult to do all of them. A Major number of achievements are attached to the DLC so you will have to buy all 3 to get 100%. Overall, a really well made game that needs more love. The characters really carry the game and it is hilarious especially if you follow stupid politics online (like Alex Jones or Ben Shapiro) as well as online discourse (like Kanye and pop artists).

main headline tonight: this game is F*CKING INCREADIBLE. 100000/10 i bought this game when it was on sale because my boyfriend had been playing it and i wanted to relive being a techie. turns out theres more to this game than being a techie behind the scenes and i ADORE it. PLEASE dont hesitate to play this game. also some people are ginger, get over it.

This game is an underrated gem! Without spoiling too much, it's a perfect blend of political dystopia and dark comedy that deserves far more attention than it has! There are many moments in this game of "Uh oh- That might be MY fault-" Just play it, genuinely it's worth every cent.

as of 28/07/2025 this should be mandatory playing for all UK citizens. protect your freedoms death to tyrants sign the petition also helps that the game is good too
