You're Bob Howell, the newest anchorman for the nation's most-watched broadcast. Your job is simple: read the teleprompter, follow the script, and be a model citizen.

Double Speak: The Ministry of Truth is built different. It's a voice-controlled news anchor game where your microphone becomes the controller. Read scripts from teleprompters using your real voice, where every word matters. Real-time speech recognition analyzes what you say, how you say it, and when you say it. Your vocal performance shapes the narrative across multiple branching paths and endings. No buttons, no clicking. Just you, a teleprompter, and the weight of every word you speak on air.

This game was made for the Bezi Jam #8.
