Deadline
The bloodier it is, the better it sells.   You have the details of the death of a John Doe and the contents of their pockets, now it’s time to pick through the remnants for just enough facts to count as truth so you can sensationalize the rest. Find connections between the personal effects and the details of their death to create a story out of this nobody that will leave readers wanting more. Deadline contains 6 cases of unknown victims, strange circumstances around their deaths, and the few personal effects they've left behind. It's up to you to write their endings. Deadline is a game for one or more morally bankrupt tabloid writers. Credits:Design, writing & layout by Seb Pines Cover, editing & layout by Will Jobst
