Signal Boost ~ RoNIN: A Retrofuturistic RPG

Find it Here!


This is a boost for a product that isn't even out yet, but in the preview stage. It's a tabletop RPG focused on a retro-futuristic approach to the 1980s that runs on a ranked 2d10 system. There isn't a whole lot yet to go off of, but it does have promise.

There isn't a whole lot yet revealed about it, as the campaign is still in preview, but you can get a 45 page quickstart by signing up now. For those sick of modern corporate gaming, you might want to give this a go. You definitely won't be getting this from them.

As for the general setting:


Welcome to Retrofuturistic Chicago

In 2038, half of the world is going through cultural stagnation in the wake of the breakup of the US. The independent city-state of Chicago is spearheading a cultural revival inspired by the culture of the 1980s. RoNIN is a game will take you through the neon glow of the Second City reborn.


For those interested in new avenues for gaming, new approaches, be sure to check this out. There are all kinds of fresh ideas not coming from mainstream sources these days. You just have to keep an eye out and work to find them.

Once again, you can find RoNIN and the free 45 page quickstart here.



For something a bit weirder, here is Karina Fabian's Neeta Lyffe: Zombie Exterminator--a novel about the future, game shows, and more general weirdness!
