Two numbers.
Both are bleeding.

You inherit a newspaper, a body under pressure, and debt that already knows your name.

Resource 01Available cash
850

Plata

Separate starting debt · P$900

Start with P$850 in cash. In Standard, you also owe P$900. Pay the bills, keep printing, and settle the debt. Borrowing buys time; it is not profit.

Resource 02Your remaining health
70/100

Salud

Start with 70 Salud. Each completed edition costs 1 Salud; events can hurt or help. Low health makes Risk events more dangerous.

Choose Every answer can move Salud or Plata. Endure Keep cash on hand and debt under control. Recover Relief exists, but never without a price.

your name.
