Baskı — Newspaper Story

PRINTING THE TRUTH AND STAYING ALIVE ARE RARELY THE SAME THING. You've just taken the editor-in-chief's desk at an independent newspaper. Every morning a decision lands on your desk: will you run your reporter's dangerous exposé — or say "too risky, let's wait"? Swipe left or swipe right. That simple. That hard. ■ HOW IT PLAYS A Reigns-style swipe decision game: every card is a character, an event, a dilemma. Keep four meters in balance: • CIRCULATION — lose your readers, lose the paper • CAPITAL — no money, no printing press • POWER — anger the state and they come knocking; get too close and you become their mouthpiece • TRUTH — sell your principles and what's left of you? If any meter hits the edge, your story ends. The goal: print as many issues as you can — and decide what kind of journalist you really are. ■ EVERY RUN IS A NEW STORY 455 cards and 40+ characters: a fearless investigative reporter, an owner who wants to buy your silence, a mob that never forgets, a flirtatious front-page star, a printing-press veteran who refuses to retire, and your mother — who just wants you to eat some soup. Choices leave scars: a fired editor doesn't come back, a betrayed gang doesn't forget, and falling in love changes the headlines. ■ 30 DIFFERENT ENDINGS Will you become the palace's obedient paper, or an honorable name shut down by force? A scandal factory or the fourth estate? Every ending is archived — can you unlock them all? • Card rarity: see what percentage of players found each card • The Digital Age: after issue 40 the rules change — clicks, virality, algorithms • Milestones: your 100th issue, your 1000th, whole new eras ■ FEATURES • Completely FREE, fully playable OFFLINE • An original, hand-written scenario — dark, funny, human • One-handed, portrait play — on the bus, in a queue, in bed • Retro newspaper aesthetics, typewriter sounds, period music • Auto-save: continue from your last issue Your coffee is getting cold.
