"Alpha" edition of WEKILL//LEAKS was cool, looking good, and fun to play... but inbalanced and sometimes a bit confusing.

After 6 months of playtesting and adjustments (and the building of a computer seimulation!) a "Beta" edition is being printed! More streamlined and fun to play, and much much more balanced!

WEKILL//LEAKS

A Game of Courageous Publishing and Imperialist Sh!tf#ckery Have you ever dreamt of running THE EMPIRE? Of limitlessly expanding your economic, political and military power through the World at any cost, including through war and deception? Do you have what it takes to crush your political opponents – those who disagree with your methods and want to expose them – in order to impose your warmongering agenda? Or have you ever dreamt of organizing THE LEAK? Of leading data-driven journalism online into the future? Will you be capable of combining the powers of digital technologies and investigative journalism to expose the crimes and lies of the Empire? To give everyone the power to understand the World they live in, and act upon it?
