Moritz reviewed Penumbra City by Margaret Killjoy
Decent RPG, but partly more a manifesto than a game
3 stars
Some people read TTRPGs to play them, some read them as a piece of literature, some read them for both. This is a complete TTRPG with an interesting setting heavily inspired by the anarchist views of the authors, but it sometimes feels more like a manifesto than a game book. There is a GM guidebook that comes with it, but in itself it seems a bit bare bones. I guess it's fine but not for me?
