The My Child New Beginnings Recorder Reporter pack is one of the two premium story packs in Book One, and it adds two chapters in which your child takes on work as an investigative journalist and uncovers a secret about the neighbours next door. On Steam it comes included with the edition; on mobile it is a paid in-app purchase.

My Child New Beginnings Recorder Reporter: what it adds
Two unique chapters, built around responsibility and the emotions that come with it:
The child becomes an investigative journalist.
The child discovers a surprising secret with the neighbours next door.
Both chapters are about what the job asks of a ten-year-old, and what it costs emotionally.
The other premium pack takes the story outdoors instead, and what The Mountain adds is covered here.
Where these two chapters sit
On the mobile build the two pack chapters are numbered Chapter 6 and Chapter 7, and a mobile playthrough of the pack plays through exactly those two chapters with the child as the reporter. On Steam they sit inside Book One, which has up to 34 chapters ready to play from start to finish. The full chapter list is here.
How to get it
Steam: included free with the premium Book One edition, which ships both premium story packs.
Mobile: a separate in-app purchase listed as "The Recorder Reporter" for $2.99.
The other pack is a separate purchase with a different focus - what The Mountain adds is covered here.
One thing to check before you buy anything: the Steam launch planned for 10 November 2026 was postponed on 9 November 2026 after a critical issue was found, so confirm what your build actually contains.
