Some games offer an exciting look at the everyday work of various professions. We suggest you familiarize yourself with a selection of projects where you can experience the subtleties of multiple jobs and vocations — including those that are not always ordinary.
Games allow you to try professions we would not have the guts for in reality, or such professions are simply impossible in the real world. Gaming conventions help to remove negative consequences, such as the risk to life.

Not For Broadcast

Many of you love live broadcasts. They allow the viewer to feel involved in the events, whether a battle between two teams in a competitive game or a game show broadcast. But what if you happen to be the director of a live broadcast, and even in a totalitarian state? In "Not For Broadcast," you hold the power to curate video segments for airing or withholding, determine your reaction to audience remarks, select the highlights for emphasis, and steer the conversation away from certain topics.

During the game, you will encounter numerous ethical quandaries, as it rests upon you to choose what to present to the audience. The degree to which you are submerged into the environment will be enhanced by a graphic representation designed as FMV (Full Motion Video), evoking the sensation of being beyond the television display.  The game is filled with dramatic and funny moments and holds your attention while you fight for the "minds" of your viewers.
