The Electric State Role Playing Game.

A Road Trip on the Verge of Reality!

 

When did it all start? I can't really remember. It started like any recreational activity, I guess. Like TV. Sometimes they watched TV and sometimes they would sit there wearing their neurocasters. I didn't care. It was after the big update of 1996 that things got weird. Mode Six.

 

The Electric State RPG rulebook is a beautifully illustrated hardback volume printed in top quality paper with previously unpublished art by Simon Stalenhag. This Tabletop RPG uses Free League's Year Zero Engine, known from award-winning games such as Mutant:Year Zero, Tales from the Loop RPG, ALIEN RPG, and the Blade Runner RPG.

 

This is a game about a group of travelers heading out on a journey through a strange America in an alternate 1997. The ruins of gigantic battle drones litter the countryside, heaped together with the discarded trash of a high tech consumerist society in decline.

The game is not about the goal but the journey - what the characters experience along the way and how it changes them. This is a game of exploration, of finding out who you are, who your friends are, and what you are willing to do when the world collapses around you.

 

Beyond the rules it includes a detailed runthrough of the US in the alternate 1990s and extensive tools for generating Locations and Journeys, as well as a pre-made sample Journey and several complete Locations to include in your Journey or play as short stand-alone adventures,
