Description:

"Blackbar is a brilliant game." —Ron Gilbert

<ul>
 <li>"Its allegories are smart, and its approach to story-telling on touch-devices is just as well. 4.5/5" —TouchArcade</li>
 
 <li>"Taut and intelligent. 8/10" —Eurogamer</li>
 
 <li>"A political statement—a super fun one. I absolutely love this incredible game." —Loren Brichter</li>
 
 <li>"Awesome and totally unexpected." —Shaun Inman</li>
</ul>

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 Blackbar turns it into an engaging game that challenges players to overcome it.

You'll pick up Blackbar instantly; however, its challenges will keep you searching, thinking, and trying for days.

<ul>
 <li>"An ingenious puzzle game that critiques censorship" —Fast Company</li>
 
 <li>"The humor is black, the puzzles go from simple to truly challenging, and the story is top-notch." —Gamemoir</li>
 
 <li>"Playing Blackbar is like being in a high school English class, and I love it." —Kotaku</li>
 
 <li>"Wonderfully written and does a fantastic job of pulling you into a not entirely unrealistic tale." —Gizmodo</li>
 
 <li>"Well-written and entertaining, with just a touch of a deeper message to hit a few concepts home. Just plain awesome." —JayIsGames
</ul>
