Deadline: A Clockwork Press Special Edition
Part II of IV
Welcome to Tabletop Journal Thursdays! A place to explore solo tabletop RPGs—not just the mechanics, but the stories they inspire and the worlds they build.
Each month, I’ll highlight a different game, journal through it, and reflect on the experience.
This month, we’re getting the presses rolling with Deadline: A Clockwork Press, a solo and group TTRPG from Fleur and Chelsea Sciortino, published by The Wanderer’s Tome. You can find it on DriveThruRPG for about $10. Deadline casts players as journalists in a strange, industrial-fantastical city, writing headlines as events unfold and tensions rise.
My playthrough took me to Cesium, a temporal mining colony built atop the ruins of a city destroyed in a war fought with temporal bombs.
Here’s a link to the ‘Pregame’ newsletter and game review in case you want to know the story behind the story. I’ve included the ‘City record’ after the broadsheet itself, in case more context is welcome.
And without further ado, here’s This Week’s Special Edition!
