Description
"Blackbar is a brilliant game." —Ron Gilbert
"Its allegories are smart, and its approach to story-telling on touch-devices is just as well. 4.5/5" —TouchArcade

"A political statement—a super fun one. I _______ love this _______ game." —Loren Brichter
"Awesome and totally unexpected." —Shaun Inman
Blackbar is a text game: a sci-fi story of a dystopian future told through the medium of word puzzles. Reminiscent of text adventures and interactive fiction, it has a unique mechanic centered around the concept of censorship. Censorship is frustrating, but the human spirit can beat that frustration by turning it into a game.
You'll pick up Blackbar instantly; however, its challenges will keep you searching, thinking, and trying for days.
"An ingenious puzzle game that critiques censorship" —Fast Company

"Playing Blackbar is Like High School English Class, And I Love It." —Kotaku

"Well-written and entertaining, with just a touch of a deeper message to hit a few concepts home. Just plain awesome." —JayIsGames

Ratings and Reviews
Nyskapende og litt retro
Dette spillet er helt ulikt alle andre spill jeg har spilt. På en måte minner det meg om tekstbaserte eventyrspill fra 80-tallet, men uten alle muligheter for kommandoer som er feil. Litt som en krimgåte som du må hjelpe til å løse. Dette spillet kan med fordel gjøres med nye historier.
Great game! Challenging/Stimulating
Very thought-provoking. For learned users. This game provides many "A-ha!" moments that follow lengthly spells of "¡¿What the heck?!". Fantastic!!
Unfortunate that it was over so soon. Would be great to see different stories/challenges available in the future.
Wonderful, dark game.
It makes you think. And it makes you think. The timing of the release is perfect.
