+ Amazing they gave it for free. Open-minded\r
+ developers.\r
+\r
+ ** breell\r
+ They might be doing that to sell the new\r

+ is there a sub where people post links for games that are\r
+ temporarily free? what i used to do was subscribe to a bunch\r
+ of shitty youtube channels who made videos about those but it\r
+ never really works\r
+\r
+ ** LionelSlothrop\r
+ Yeah its called freegamefindings or something like that\r
+ and gamedeals is another\r

+\r
+ ** mylittlemoonfey\r
+ This is a fun little game, I finished in one sitting.\r
+\r
+ ** pr0ghead\r
+ Wasn't that also free about a month ago? Or was that on GOG?\r
+\r
+ ** NoXPhasma\r
+ Yes, it was free on Humble Bundle. This is the chance to grab\r
+ it for those who missed it.\r

+\r

+ OP thank you very much!\r
+\r
+ ** Espinosidro\r
+ I want to know what does the FOSS community think about this\r
+ game.\r
+\r
+ ** ase1590\r
+ I want to know what does the FOSS community think about this\r
+ game.\r
+ What about it? It's a game that has a message that advocates\r
+ against government surveillance.\r
+\r
+ ** Espinosidro\r
+ Interesting interpretation, this is pretty much what I\r
+ wanted to know.\r
+ My question to you is, is it really advocating against\r
+ surveillance? maybe it's trying to show us the security\r
+ benefits of having no privacy.\r
+\r
+ ** ase1590\r
+ I've finished the game completely. You speak as if you\r
+ have not.\r
+ The whole message at the end was built to encourage\r
+ you, the player, to seriously consider the downsides\r
+ surveillance and the irresponsibility of those using\r
+ the system can have on civilization. Though of course,\r
+ you can totally ignore all of that rationale and simply\r
+ keep blindly following orders from Catherine.\r
+\r
+ ** Espinosidro\r
+ I have finished the game only once, haven't seen all\r
+ the endings yet. But as far as I can tell the game\r
+ isn't trying to simply tell the player that\r
+ surveillance is bad or anything, it just makes the\r
+ player think about it.\r
+ At the end of the day we can only guess what the\r
+ devs were thinking when making the game.\r
+\r
+ ** ase1590\r
+ But as far as I can tell the game isn't trying to\r
+ simply tell the player that surveillance is bad\r
+ or anything, it just makes the player think about\r
+ it.\r
+ Right. you're not being forced to pick a decision.\r
+ But you'd have a hard time telling me this game\r
+ was neutral or in favor of surveillance based on\r
+ several plot items in it. Especially with a name\r
+ like Orwell of all things.\r
+ You simply just don't name your game Orwell and\r
+ not make it lean anti-surveillance.\r

+ I was eventually going to buy this game, I'll wait till it's on\r
+ sale :)\r
+\r
+ ** drislands\r
+ Oh fuck me I just bought this two days ago. Oh well, it was\r
+ definitely worth the money. Excellent game, if a little short!\r
+\r
+ ** CaptRobovski\r
+ Reminds me of Papers, Please, in the sense that it's an admin\r
+ simulator. Looks interesting!\r
+\r
+ ** Draconicrose_\r
+ I really liked this game. Definitely packs a but of an emotional\r
+ punch.\r
