Orwell: Keeping an Eye On You

Orwell is a game in which you play as an investigator that throw the use of wire taps, internet articles, social media and plain hacking, you must find out who was responsible for the bombings that resulted in 3 deaths. Its a very clever plot, and it came out at a time when this matter had never been more politically relevant.

The gameplay however feels a bit too linear and forced. You never feel like you are the one putting the puzzle together, even if knowing more of the plot is satisfying enough to finish this one to completion (of its short running time). I feel like with more open and gameplay focus this really could have been a standout game, but instead its just a good experience with a story that goes a long way to prove its point.
