About This Game

About This Game

The White: Protocol is a first-person narrative exploration game.
Players take on the role of an Operator working inside a highly structured metro system, where actions are guided by instructions, protocols, and predefined routes.

The game focuses on exploration, decision-making, and systemic feedback, using environment design and task structures to reflect how individual behavior interacts with a controlled system.

Gameplay

  • First-Person Exploration
    Move freely through metro stations, control corridors, and enclosed spaces. Observe your surroundings, read system messages, and interact with the environment.

  • Task-Oriented Structure
    Objectives are delivered through an in-game system interface. Certain areas only become accessible after completing specific tasks or obtaining required data.

  • Choice and Path Divergence
    Players may choose to follow system instructions or deviate from them. Different behaviors influence task progression, environmental conditions, and narrative outcomes.

  • Environmental Storytelling
    Text fragments, broadcasts, visual anomalies, and interactive objects work together to convey the story and reveal how the system operates.

System Response

As long as the player complies, the system remains calm and orderly.
Repeated deviations or unauthorized actions will gradually trigger changes, including:

  • Altered or unstable routes

  • Visual and interface disturbances

  • Shifts in system messages and feedback

These responses build over time rather than acting as immediate punishment.

Features

  • Multiple paths and endings

  • A narrative structure built around rules and systems

  • Atmosphere-driven level and environment design

  • Interactive exploration of conformity and deviation
