Truthcast

Can you handle the truth?

Truthcast is a tense narrative game about trust, media, and consequence. A mysterious broadcast guides you through a locked-down world, but its information is contradictory and unsettling. Your choices to obey or ignore the broadcast will directly shape your fate. The truth is on the air—if you dare to believe it.

The World Has Gone Silent. Only One Voice Remains.

You are isolated, alone, and the world outside has fallen into chaos. Your only source of information is "The Truthcast," a constant broadcast from a mysterious source claiming to have the answers. It offers guidance, warnings, and a path to salvation.

But something isn't right. The stories don't always add up. The instructions are sometimes... cruel. Is this a beacon of hope in the darkness, or a carefully crafted web of manipulation designed to control you?

Your Decisions Define the Truth

In Truthcast, you are constantly presented with choices. The broadcast will tell you what to do.

Trust or Doubt

Do you TRUST the broadcast and follow its instructions, even when they seem illogical or dangerous? Or do you DOUBT the broadcast and defy it, relying on your own instincts in a world you can't see?

Consequences Matter

Every choice has consequences. Trusting the broadcast might save you from an unseen threat, or it might lead you into a trap. Doubting it could grant you your freedom, or it could seal your doom.

The airwaves are buzzing. The future is uncertain.
