Description

A country divided by The Wall. To cross it and reach your family, you must compete on - and win - a reality TV show broadcast by the Regime. Seemingly built overnight, The Wall has divided both a country in two and a man from his family. To see them again, our ginger-haired protagonist has decided to become a contestant on “The Wall Show”, a Regime-organized TV show allowing competitors the opportunity to escape to freedom on the other side. However, as he progresses through the camp, our contestant soon realizes exactly how the Regime and the show operate. The promise of freedom is not exactly what it seems. Inspired by games such as Prince of Persia (1989) and Oddworld: Abe’s Exoddus, Ministry of Broadcast revives the spirit of classic cinematic action-adventures where players need nimble run-and-jump reflexes and a healthy aversion to falling from precarious heights. To reach freedom and family, you must lead the protagonist through each of the Arenas while under the ever-watchful mechanical eye of the Regime. The variety of hazardous, dilapidated environments hold an array of obstacles for you to manage—leg-shattering drops (scared of heights?), flaming barrels of garbage (extra-smelly, extra-flamey), inconveniently-placed spike pits (of course), hanging steel beams (so much rust)—but none of this is to speak of the fates of those you meet along the way. CINEMATIC ADVENTURE - Run, jump, crash, and climb your way through each Arena as the action unfolds around you. Much of the story is unveiled via smoothly integrated animation sequences, within the environment, or from NPCs muttering bits of dialogue as you dive and dodge around them. ENVIRONMENTAL HUD - Rather than having a screen cluttered with overlaid indicators, HP bars, and minimaps, any information the player will need is incorporated into the environment. Hints and clues are meshed into the game’s art, subtle and specific, players will need a keen eye if they want to survive each Arena without breaking their legs. BRAIN-BENDING PUZZLES - Use your wits, and at times a dash of ruthlessness, to advance through the Arenas. You’ll have to interact with the environment itself to solve most of the puzzles: use the protagonist’s momentum to move platforms, flip the occasional lever, and sometimes you might have to sacrifice an NPC or two to cross a particularly spiky pit. TONS OF DARK HUMOR - Featuring lots of impish humor, Grade A sarcasm, and comic mischief, all balanced perfectly with the dark, heavy themes presented in this dystopian world. **Supported devices: iPhone 6S, 6S Plus, 7, 7 Plus, 8, 8 Plus, X, XS, XR, SE, 11, 11 Pro; iPad Air 2, 3, Pro; iPad Mini 4, 5; iPod Touch 7th Gen (all iOS devices with more than 2GB of RAM)**

    This game is epic, the puzzles, realism, and the part where you die you get roasted. Also does the civilian get his boots back?
  • I don’t know how to run and jump

    They don’t teach you how to run and jump. I’n most games it’s not a problem but in this game I can’t seem to run and jump. I run off or I stop and then jump
  • Story is good, controls not so much

    The story is really nice, but the controls were just so annoying it kind of ruined it
  • Not bad

    Cool story. The controls are terrible. If I’m jumping up a level I have to stop, turn, then jump to it then dude takes a long time to finally get up on the level. Is it possible to at least pick shoes I want to wear? Show thing isn’t bad just wanted to bring it up. Because why complain if I don’t want any shoes.
  • I want more!

    I really loved this game. The gameplay is great and I especially love the obvious homage to the Berlin Wall and the GDR.
  • The controls are fine

    First off the game is great, love the running and jumping, good story, good level design. Second off I dunno what all these other reviews are talking about with the controls, they’re fine. I encountered no problems with the controls or otherwise. Great game, keep up the good work!
  • Could’ve been good

    This game had potential but the controls are so janky and inconsistent. Not worth $7. Not even close
  • The DEFINITION of puzzle-platformer

    I downloaded this game a while back, found it too difficult and deleted it, years later (now) I downloaded it again, and purchased the full game, and I have to say. It was the best purchase I’ve ever made on my iPad, If I could give more than five stars, I Absolutely would. This, In my opinion Is one of the best platformer/ puzzle game on the App Store, some puzzles can be a bit tricky, and take me a while But I managed to get to the end of the game. AND BOY, am I glad that I did. The ending Quite literally made me cry. 10/10 Best game on the iPad, would recommend :)

    I relay love the style and premise of this game, it’s pretty cool and enjoyable to play, I’ve quit this game because of its ,(kinda) unintuitive controls, there fine for the most part, except for the millions of time you have to run jump, it’s very unresponsive most of the time. Other than the run jump. This is a very solid game and I appreciate it.
