There’s nothing quite like losing yourself in a management game. Yeah, on paper, it’s work. You’re running a coffee shop, or a supermarket, or, in this case, a newspaper company. It’s satisfying to carefully guide the progression, expansion, and profitability of a small business into a growing empire. Well, that feeling is about to expand exponentially, as News Tower hits 1.0 on November 4, 2025!
In News Tower, dive into the chaos of 1930s New York in a management tycoon game where you build and manage your own newspaper.
From the Great Depression to the brink of World War II every Sunday brings a new deadline, and every article is a strategic decision. Between editorial dilemmas, newsroom breakdowns, and political pressure, you’ll shape the future of your newspaper to start your media empire!
Features Coming in News Tower 1.0
As part of its major 1.0 release, News Tower expands greatly, with additional features, mechanics, factions, and more:
- Contend with rival newspapers, including The Jersey Beacon and Empire Observer, to dominate New York City.
- Align with various factions, including the Mayor, High Society, and the Mafia, each one offering quests, rewards, and favor that may grant you growth or prove a detriment to your budding empire.
- Start with a single floor, then build a booming newspaper empire with upgradeable rooms, departments, and logistics to improve workflow and employee management.
- As a newspaper tycoon, you will curate the stories, choose your tone, and decide whether you want to sensationalize the news or inform the people.
- Your employees aren’t nameless, faceless individuals; they require motivation, rest, and proper compensation to continue working happily.
