About Orwell: Keeping an Eye On You

✦ AI summary

You're a government surveillance analyst tasked with sifting through citizens' digital lives to identify terror suspects, deciding which invasive information reaches security forces and shapes their fates. This thought-provoking narrative game explores the moral weight of power, privacy, and the consequences of unchecked surveillance through choices that feel uncomfortably real.

Big Brother has arrived - and it’s you. Investigate the lives of citizens to find those responsible for a series of terror attacks. Information from the internet, personal communications and private files are all accessible to you. But, be warned, the information you supply will have consequences…

Orwell is a new governmental security program that has the power to survey the online presence of every person in The Nation. It can monitor all personal communications and access any computer. To preserve the privacy of citizens, human researchers examine the data Orwell finds and decide which pieces of information should be passed on to the security forces, and which should be rejected.

Selected from thousands of candidates, you are Orwell’s first human researcher. And when a terror attack rocks the Nation’s capital city of Bonton, Orwell, and you, are immediately put to the test. Starting with a single person of interest, you'll help the security forces build out and profile a network of potential culprits.

But are these people really terrorists? What does the information you reveal to Orwell say about them? What if you find out things about them that not even their loved ones know? What is the real price of maintaining the security that the Nation is yearning for?


Key Features



Investigate the digital lives of citizens.
Search web pages, scour through social media posts, dating site profiles, news articles and blogs to find those responsible for a series of terror attacks.

Invade the private lives of suspects.
Listen in on chat communications, read personal emails, hack PCs, pull medical files, make connections. Find the information you need to know.

Determine the relevance of information.
Only the information you provide will be seen by the security forces and acted upon. You decide what gets seen and what does not, influencing how the suspects will be perceived.

Secure the freedom of the Nation.
Find the terrorists so the citizens of the Nation can sleep safe, knowing Orwell is watching over them.

MATURE CONTENT WARNING
Please note, Orwell includes mature language at multiple points throughout the game as well as mature themes and is not suitable for younger players.

I wish so much there were more Orwell games. They were so fun.
Recommended Aug 29, 2026
Quite a simple game about impact of human factor in National Surveillance. Full playthrough takes about 3-4 hours, experiencing different paths and decision branches for achievements takes about 10-12 hours.
Recommended Aug 27, 2026
Great game, interesting narrative that kept me guessing. easy to follow for the most part with a message that is etremely topical with everyone having a digital foot print and how the promise of safety can turn into a facist surveillance state fluidly. would recommend.
