Headlines from Hell
HEADLINES FROM HELL is an investigative TTRP game where you play as a reporter trying to sway public opinion against corruption. You need 20 EVIDENCE points and can lose the game if hell reaches CORRUPTION score of twenty, which will force them into hiding until their next plan starts again! The turn order involves rolling dice for information that may be revealed in response to your article or a series of tables filled out by you as an investigative reporter. Other details include obtaining printed copies and playing the game with pencils on paper rather than through digital means, taking 15-20 minutes per play session due to its simplicity compared to other games such as Dungeons & Dragons (D&D). Finally inspired from Linda Codega who broke a story about Wizards of The Coast creating an even stricter version of their Open Gaming License.
