The Westport Independent

The Westport Independent serves as a simulation of the challenges faced by media in a post-war environment under the control of a newly elected loyalist government. Players assume the role of the editor of one of the final independent newspapers, navigating the complex landscape of censorship by carefully altering and omitting content that could influence public perception of both government officials and rebel factions. This engaging experience sheds light on the delicate balance between freedom of expression and the pressures of political loyalty, pushing players to make difficult editorial decisions.
