Red Ledger

Red Ledger is a short-session 4-player PvP bluffing game about sealed warehouses, secret budgets, and suspicious paperwork. Each round, a state warehouse is presented to the committee. The reports are incomplete. The estimates are unreliable. The other departments are watching. Every Warehouse Hides a Decision You are not buying a warehouse. You are submitting a budget allocation. Each sealed warehouse contains uncertain assets: industrial equipment, archived files, cultural relics, useless scrap, or items that should probably never appear in an official report. You will never know everything before the decision is made. Four Seats. One Allocation. Each match seats up to four departments at the table. Every player studies the same public report, judges the same risks, and submits a hidden budget request. When there are not enough human players, empty seats can be filled by server-side bots, so the committee can proceed without waiting forever. The highest allocation wins the warehouse. Whether that was wise is another matter. Bid in Silence No one knows how much the others offered until the reveal. Bid too low, and the warehouse goes elsewhere. Bid too high, and your department may win a very expensive mistake. Information is limited. Rumors may help. Reports may mislead. The safest decision is rarely the most profitable one. Survive the Audit Winning the warehouse is only the beginning. After inspection, you may keep assets, sell them to demand orders, mortgage them for emergency funds, or request additional support. Every solution can help your department recover. Every solution also leaves a record.
