The graphics were clean and satisfying. I think one of your math questions might have been a bit off. Aside from the whole maths, I enjoyed the satirical nature of the questions. Edgy and well done for 72 hours. Great job!

Interesting concept, but for some questions the time is a bit too short.

I like it although some of questions are difficult for me ;D

I enjoy the subjective questions, which I got totally wrong until I thought in double-think. Clever! Extra points for supporting both keyboard and mouse, and having 8-bit sound effects. Good work!

Lovely! Nice to see some "serious" games here. Perfect medium to talk about this stuff. Had a good time!

Moody, tense, amusing, depressing and educational, all at the same time. Looks great, sounds great - though I found the timer jussst a little short, but whatcha gunna do? Nice work!

It's fantastic to play a game that was made for a jam that explores a genre rarely approached during jams. Great work! A disturbing, cleanly-drawn, excellent game!

Really enjoyed the satire in the questions. Simultaneously funny and sad how one could finish the sentences without thinking about it, just because of how common they are.

Great concept and the mood is well built up. I just could not understand why were there math questions :D

Apart from the crash I managed to get I was impressed by this game. It was good to see a serious game here and I liked the propaganda questions - they were very sinister. Well done.
Almax2728 Aug 2013, 18:52
Really cool. The questions were a bit confusing at first but then figured out the biased context in which to answer.
TammiLion28 Aug 2013, 19:28
I think the music could have been a bit more moody. The question were good. Didn't like the math questions XD

Interesting concept. It was great to see such a unique idea explored. Graphics were also very nice and clean
kristof28 Aug 2013, 20:23
Very funny questions. I had an uncaught exception somewhere in the second file.

Haha, what a great statement to our modern society, really good. Graphics is nice and clean. I love those questions, though some of them I run out of time as soon as I finish reading the question.

great use of minimal art, nicely dark sense of humor.
math stuff kicked my sorry artist ass.

The NSA, eh? ;D I enjoyed it, great job for the time given!

5 stars for black humor!

fun game keep on the edge of your seat ... and keep u with it
Arcana31 Aug 2013, 18:12
A pretty serious game but a little too politically-charged for my taste though.

Also, it got really difficult to "progress" to different areas, it wasn't clear when I could click on or access different files.

Fun game :D
Some questions was a bit too long to be able to anwser on first try
Oana31 Aug 2013, 21:08
That is a very nice idea, a great way to make a political statement (to those who get it at least). It does kind of show how a large part of americans, or politicians at least, think. Great humor and mood.

Brilliant!! Just the perfect satire...
Too bad some of the question are too long and there isn't enough time to read them. A level select would be great to not have to start over.
I'm rating this very high because the satire is just too good!

Nice game. But a bug makes any question time-out after 5 seconds, which makes the game quite hard...
The sounds were great!

Fixed the UI timer issues and the tq12 crash

Good concept but using a visual novel engine to make the game was not the best idea as it is really easy to cheat.
