The City’s Hidden Puppeteer

You are the invisible hand behind the city. For a decade, mayors, police chiefs, and CEOs have danced on your strings — their ambitions, doubts, and impulses quietly bent by your Mental Puppetry. No one has ever met you and remembered it. You've grown rich and untouchable, steering the city from the shadows for profit... and sometimes, when your conscience won't stay quiet, for good. Then a rival psychic arrives — one immune to your power, who knows exactly who and what you are. Their motive is a mystery: expose you, steal your network, destroy you, recruit you, or something stranger still. For the first time in years, you are the one being watched. Play as the villain in this dark noir thriller. Manage your web of puppets, hunt the rival through a city that doesn't know it's yours, and decide what kind of shadow broker you want to be — predator, reluctant puppet-master, or something in between. Every string you pull risks unraveling everything. Will you tighten your grip on the city... or lose it to the one mind you can't touch? Choices: Player chooses the city.
