Pulitzer is a strategic newsroom game set amid the political shocks of 1970s America. Players secretly assign different journalists, gather evidence, manage reputation and resources, and publish exclusives as investigations develop. Worker powers, contested locations, and hidden placement create a layered contest of deduction and planning, while solo rules let one editor pursue the defining story alone.
