The Westport Independent is a 2016 game by Double Zero One Zero. It’s the first game they’ve launched on Steam and a valiant effort at that. The Westport Independent places the player in the position of a head editor at a small newspaper in country living in the shadow of a rapidly-ascending nationalistic party, in the final 12 weeks before newspapers are subject to a new, harsh regulation on what they can and cannot print.
As the editor, you have say on certain decisions within the game, and can censor news items and change headlines as you are wont- provided that one of your four writers is interested in taking the edited story and finishing it for print. Each turn of the game is one week within the city, and at the end of each turn you are given a short summary of the social and cultural effects of your last issue, as well as breakdowns of how many papers were sold in each of the city’s four districts.
