About the adventure
It’s the 11:00 PM news, and the blizzard of the century has buried the city. Inside the Channel 8 station, the cameras are rolling and the smiles are plastered on, but the teleprompters have started displaying prayers to forgotten gods, and the figure in the green screen isn't the weatherman. You aren't just reporting the news anymore; you are trapped in a high-frequency cage match with the unknown. This is a scenario of claustrophobic, technological horror. As a corrupting Dark Signal hijacks the station's frequencies, reality within the studio begins to glitch. Physics distort, equipment becomes possessed, and entities made of static bleed out of the monitors. The theme is the corruption of truth—where the medium itself becomes the monster. It challenges players to balance physical survival against the crumbling mental fortitude required to keep the show running. Perfect for 3-6 players who enjoy high-stakes tension and "locked room" mysteries. You play as the anchors, the tech crew, and the station manager, forcing you to utilize unique skills—from electrical repair to charismatic deflection—to battle the encroachment of the void. Will you cut the feed and save your souls, or keep the broadcast running until the bitter, static-filled end?
