Darwin's World - The Best kept secret in Post Apocalypse RPGs

 Darwin's World is probably among my favorite settings in gaming. I sincerely wish I had more time spent playing it. Luckily I have started playing in a Campaign with Grim Jim and T-shirted Historian among others. The system we have been using is Other Dust and to say the least, the setting is pretty different from the Twisted Earth.

The Twisted Earth Setting Map

However, we have encountered The Clean Water Cartel, a Mutagon whose lair was in a ruined mattress store in a strip mall. We also fought some Plague Zombies which was pretty awesome. By the by our characters are all Humans who got cryogenically frozen in 2018 so we are not natives to the twisted earth. Also, last session we gained a new NPC who is apparently a female Assassin Android.


All in all The Twisted Earth and by effect The Darwin's World Rules are quite honestly my favorite out of all Post Apocalypse TTRPG settings. It's got androids, brutal and realistic mutations, defects, Slavery, Sexism, Genocide, Drugs, and all wrapped up in a degenerated world of Post-Apocalyptic Horror Adventurers. I highly recommend the books even if you don't play D20 Modern or Savage Worlds. The setting is the "chef's kiss" choice.

The Chronicles of Afterlight - Post Apocalyptic Far Future Medieval fantasy Setting

Image
 Today, I introduce my long-time phantasmal reverie of The Chronicles of Afterlight. Imagine a world that is our Earth but an alternate one far across the cosmic void between universes. In this alternate Earth in the late 21st century, more precisely, August 23rd, 2093 C.E., a tear in the fabric of reality occurred. Experiments in Hyperspace pylons lead to rifts into the void between worlds. These experiments didn't immediately destroy civilization; however, the daemonic entities' insidious corruption of people in power from the void began. Over the next 60 years, life became all the worse for everyone and everything on Earth. The tremendous social progress society had made in the 20th and 21st centuries slowly but indeed got stripped away. The power to change society was left in the irreparably damaged hands of contemptible, chaos-corrupted politicians and demagogues. The ecological damage caused by the Industrial Revolution and its after-effects continued after decades of rep

RPGaDay 2023 - Day 5 - Oldest game you've played

 This is perhaps a more difficult question due to all of the OSR games I own. I guess I will give the copout answer and say Labyrinth Lord is the oldest game I've played due to its lineage as a B/X D&D Clone. If I were to give an honest answer, I would have to say the oldest game I've played would be West End Game's Ghostbusters RPG.
