Stop the Press!
You run a newspaper in a nation on the brink of revolution. Twist headlines to suit your agenda, upgrade your printing press, mastermind a distribution strategy to grow your readership and evade being censored—or worse—by the Secret Police. With enough influence you can change the course of history.
You run a newspaper in a nation on the brink of revolution. Twist headlines to suit your agenda, upgrade your printing press, mastermind a distribution strategy to grow your readership and evade being censored—or worse—by the Secret Police. With enough influence you can change the course of history.
As stories flood in, choose what gets reported, and how. Every event can be spun to suit your agenda - whether you're convincing readers to support the revolution, boosting your sales with a scandalous headline, or telling a barefaced lie to change the narrative.
Start from humble beginnings and buy more advanced printing presses to keep up with the growing demands of your readers. Unlock bigger paper sizes, more printing capacity, new distribution tactics. When you run out of space, it’s time to upgrade your factory.
Everything you print has an impact on the world. Weigh in on debates and influence history in a richly detailed 1930s world, with storylines inspired by real revolutions from the past and multiple endings to explore.
Your actions will lead to difficult moral dilemmas. What if the faction you helped into power starts doing things you disagree with? What if the truth helps the wrong people? What if the only way to keep the presses running is to betray a whistleblower who risked everything for you?
But watch out - powerful groups will try to exert pressure on your editorial freedom. Will you crack under pressure and become the regime’s pawn, or defy its draconian censorship and risk everything? Will you take bribes and print adverts for big business - even if your readers disapprove?
Follow your storytelling instincts and your moral compass... or exploit every opportunity to make your numbers go up in an immersive simulation. Target demographics, plan deliveries across 14 distinctive regions, hire your journalists carefully, and find the sweet spot for your newspaper's price. With millions of potential readers hungry for news, how many can you reach?
