About This Game

Edit the Truth, Manipulate Public Opinion

You are the Editor-in-Chief of a newspaper in 1920s Gyeongseong (Seoul). The size and layout of your articles are power. Will you awaken the people by featuring independence movements on the front page? Or will you fill the pages with propaganda to ensure your survival?

• The Aesthetics of Editing: Arrange articles like a puzzle. The placement of headlines determines their impact.

• The Fear of Censorship: You must dodge the red censorship stamp. Cross the line, and your newspaper faces immediate shutdown.

Bear the Weight of the Pen, Heavier than the Sword

Behind the glamorous streets of "Modern Boys" lie dark shadows. Pro-Japanese officials, secret independence fighters, and struggling reporters—your interactions with them will test your beliefs.

• Noir Narrative: Experience a deep story where the tragedy and romance of the era coexist.

• The Cost of Choice: A single word from you can change a reporter's fate and alter the flow of history.

Scoops Are Found in the Field, Not at a Desk

You can't find the truth just by sitting in the office. Dispatch reporters to the scene to secure decisive evidence. Tail suspects, eavesdrop, and steal documents. But be careful—if caught, your reporter might never return.

• Diverse Minigames: Experience the reporting process through Stealth, Tailing, Wiretapping, Stenography, and Interviews.

• Tense Action: Avoid the guards' line of sight and crack codes to uncover the truth.

Fate Rests on the Dice, Reporters Rest on You

A newspaper doesn't run itself. Hire and train reporters with unique abilities and personalities. But beware: excessive workload and the pressure of the era can drive them to madness.

• TRPG Style Gameplay: Success depends on reporter stats and the roll of the Dice.

• Stress Management: Manage your team's mental health so they don't break down or betray you.

Game Features:

• Publish Your Own Newspaper: Strategic editing via article layout and resizing.

• Record of the Era: Major historical events and timelines from 1920 to 1945 based on real history.

• Management Simulation: Manage ads, salaries, and pay special taxes to the colonial government.

• Multi-Endings: Various endings determined by your choices and political stance (Pro-Japanese/Anti-Japanese).

AI Generated Content Disclosure

The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

This game utilizes generative AI tools during the development process to enhance content volume and improve efficiency. The specific usage is as follows:

Art: AI was used to generate some background images and UI icons to set the atmospheric tone of the era, which were then retouched by artists.

Text: AI assisted in drafting content for newspaper articles, public reactions, and minigame text. It was also used for proofreading the story and checking narrative consistency.

All AI-generated assets were reviewed, edited, and refined by the development team to ensure they align with the game's vision.
