Landing page captured for the 2026-09-10 issue.

Field notes

The project packages each game as a standalone HTML file, allowing it to run on a kitchen laptop with Wi-Fi switched off. Little Victoria combines town building with a 64-year timeline and 129 real news stories, while its postcard feature dates a saved view, counts the population, and places the image in a scrapbook. The Printer’s Daughter is further behind: five of ten chapters are playable, with no public build indicated on the page.
