Kickstarter: Dimday Red TTRPG – Nodus Zine 02

A couple of days ago Spiros Drakatos reached out to me and let me know about Dimday Red, his post-apocalyptical TTRPG and the Kickstarter he’s currently running to finance a zine to expand the setting. In this day and age it’s pretty hard for a game designer and a solo one at that to get word out about one’s new product. With hundreds of new games, supplements, adventures and all that good stuff being released monthly, it’s extremely hard to get noticed. That’s why I immediately agreed to spread the news.

Dimday Red is set in a future where Earth was pushed out of its orbit and is slowly getting closer to the sun. Mankind knows that it has only about 52 years until all life on the planet will be snuffed out. Society is on the brink of collapse and eight powerful families control Neu Bonn, the capital of Paneuropa.

The game is Powered by the Apocalypse with custom rules built around its core and features pretty awesome artwork. Just from looking at some pictures you realize this is a labor of love. Unfortunately I haven’t had the time to give the game a closer look at this point, but I plan to do this as soon as I have the time. In the meantime, I recommend you check out Dimday Red’s official website and also give the Kickstarter a look!
