Features & Capabilities

1979 Revolution is a cinematic adventure based on real events from Iran's 1978-1981 period. You play as Reza, a photojournalist navigating the conflict with two weapons: your camera and your morality. The branching narrative lets you shape outcomes through choices while exploring over eighty stories about Iran—its social customs, politics, history, home movies, graffiti, and more.

Unlike traditional games, this title blends documentary storytelling with interactive gameplay, drawing from first-person testimonies of freedom fighters and witnesses. Available in English, Farsi, French, German, Russian, Spanish, and Turkish, it invites players to experience Iran's revolution through an immersive, photojournalist's lens.

User Reviews

User reviews praise the game's immersive, movie-like narrative and strong grounding in real history, with meaningful, consequential choices and high production value. Repeated drawbacks are technical crashes (notably on iPadOS 18.4 and after chapter 19) and language accessibility concerns (Persian language and English comprehension for some players). Some reviews describe it as infotainment rather than a traditional game. Overall, it’s viewed as powerful, educational, and emotionally engaging when it runs smoothly.

Pros

Immersive, cinematic storytelling that makes the player feel like they're in a movie.
Strong historical basis with real events, offering educational value and authenticity.
Meaningful choices with consequences that influence the story and tension.
High production quality, including acting, plotting, and emotional depth.

Cons

Frequent crashes and performance issues, especially on iPadOS 18.4 and after chapter 19; optimization needed.
Localization and language accessibility issues, with some players needing translation or more time to read choices.

Recent reviews

It is not fully optimized on the iPadOS 18.4, sometimes it crashes and closes. Please optimize for iPadOS 18.4.

The game keeps crashing after chapter 19.

This game is full of lies. It is full of historical mistakes. From the beginning... Asadullah Lajevardi has never been a torturer. He was a very kind man. But the political expediency of the game makers required them to include these lies in the game. This game does not correctly represent the history of the Islamic Revolution of Iran. I advise those who play this game to independently study the history and facts of the Iranian Islamic Revolution. Hoping that one day all the people of the world will be aware of the facts and peaceful message of Iran's Islamic Revolution
