A downloadable game for Windows

Six days. One phone. A nation on the brink.

The Whisperer is a narrative strategy game set during the first six days of Iran’s Woman, Life, Freedom movement. You are an underground activist navigating a collapsing social media landscape, trying to amplify real stories before the government shuts it all down.

Strategize every post. Choose your platform, your tone, and your target. Will you amplify the truth, or play it safe under surveillance? Each decision ripples across public sentiment, risks exposure, and may ignite offline resistance—or bury your voice forever.

This is not a power fantasy. It’s a race against silence.
