Game

You and your friends are journalists in a major city overrun by hostile monsters. As true journalists, you venture out to capture photos of everything strange and deadly happening around you. The more extreme and daring the pictures are, the better.

Try to make the headlines without becoming one yourself...

This indie game is heavily inspired by titles like Phasmophobia and Lethal Company. But the journalistic angle adds its own flavor, giving the game a distinct place in this saturated new genre.

The more extreme photos you manage to take during your missions, the more money you earn. Use your earnings to buy better cameras and gear, etc. An entertaining new twist. And the game gave us lots of laughs.

Yet the game still faces the same issues as most titles in this niche: it quickly becomes repetitive. We found that just a few sessions were enough.

Co-op

A great co-op experience, where the developer has built the game from the ground up to be played as a cooperative game.

Up to eight players can play together, but we recommend at least three for the most fun.
