Not a Tabloid

So, here’s the thing. You’re one bad article away from getting fired and you maybe missed this morning’s pitch meeting when everyone was staking claims on stories. Your boss said you have one final shot to impress him and so he’s giving you the big enchilada of “completely legitimate newspaper” interviews to really make your comeback. The problem is, he kind of had a twinkle in his eye and didn’t tell you what the interview is actually about.

 

Get this interview over with and figure out what you’re writing about without giving yourself away.

Not a Tabloid is a 2-player interview game where one player is an overworked tabloid writer and the other player has a Big Secret they're trying not to spill too early. The game is silly and comedic with a touch of the magical absurd. 

There are 24 questions for the journalist, 20 hot topic words for the interviewee to roll, and over 500 possible options for the Big Secret, including "I had a child with my high school janitor to frame my sworn rival", "I ate bigfoot just to feel alive again", and "I brought a taco truck employee back from the dead because I made a bargain with a witch" 

What you'll need:

• Two players 
• Two 8-sided dice and a 20-sided die 
• A way of writing or keeping notes

Includes a formatted PDF and a dyslexia friendly plain text PDF
