The Watcher, an Orwellian Surveillance Sim, Announced for PC
In a totalitarian state, you play an observer who watches your neighbors in a strange city called Z. This is the premise behind The Watcher (aptly named!), which is in development for PC.
Developed by the indie studio Yesterday's Sandwich, The Watcher is an upcoming surveillance simulator set for PC. In this psychological thriller, players take on the role of an observer, watching the inhabitants of an apartment building from across the street in the city of Z, located in the totalitarian State of Nodia. The game's developer describes it as a blend of Don't Feed the Monkeys and Orwell, taking the concept further.
Fans can wishlist The Watcher on Steam to keep track of its development progress. Ryan McCaffrey, IGN's executive editor of previews and host of IGN's weekly Xbox show Podcast Unlocked, expressed excitement about the game. McCaffrey is also a co-host of Next-Gen Console Watch.
