Hi there, I'm an investigative journalist for journalism startup Point (@pointreport) and this is our video game Misinformer. It's a gripping, narrative-focused, detective game - with multiple endings- that has constantly updated stories (downloadable updates) from Point's reporting. Every time we publish a new story on Point, we'll fictionalise it and turn it into a downloadable game story! You will always play the news. We're doing this to fight misinformation and fund investigative journalism. Join us and let us know what you think!
