  • Orwell: Keeping an Eye On You and Orwell: Ignorance is Strength now on Nintendo Switch

    Orwell: Keeping an Eye On You and Orwell: Ignorance is Strength now on Nintendo Switch

    BIG BROTHER IS WATCHING… ON THE GO

    Ever wondered what it’s like to be the “eye in the sky”? The wait is over. The critically acclaimed surveillance thriller series Orwell has officially arrived on Nintendo Switch!

    Now you can play through both award-winning seasons of this gripping digital mystery wherever you are. But remember: every data chunk you upload has consequences.

    Orwell: Keeping an Eye On You

    Step into “The Office,” a top-secret government department. After a terror attack rocks the capital, you are the first human researcher for the Orwell program.

    • Investigate: Trawl through personal files, social media, and private chats.
    • Decide: What information is relevant? What stays private?
    • Consequences: Your reports will lead to arrests—or let the real culprits walk free.

    Orwell: Ignorance is Strength

    The darker, more intense second season runs parallel to the first but introduces a whole new set of ethical dilemmas.

    • Information Warfare: Dive into the world of “fake news” and political manipulation.
    • New Tools: Use the “Influencer” tool to shape public narrative and control how the truth is perceived.
    • Time-Sensitive: A new “time of day” system makes every minute count as you race to stop a geopolitical crisis.

    Why play on Switch? Fully optimised for handheld play (perfect for that “cosy surveillance” vibe). Compatible with Nintendo Switch 2. Perfect for fans of Papers, Please, Her Story, or 1984.

    The line between security and privacy is thinner than ever. Which side will you choose?

    Available now on the Nintendo eShop! Get 10% off if you grab it during the launch window!
