Saigon Ex-Frau Apocalypse is a horror scenario for Epidiah Ravachol's storygame, Dread that focuses on the aftermath of an extravagant party in downtown SaiGon where people discover something has gone wrong with their world and start to experience strange events. The game features verminkhut houses shared by dirtbagger families who wake up one day after a wild night out only to find themselves trapped inside due to some unknown disaster that is causing the earth around them to crumble in on itself, leading people outside of Saigon-to be scared and panic as they witness apocalyptic scenes unfold before their eyes. The game challenges players' ability to survive these events while dealing with colonialist tropes often found within horror stories set during this time period (e.g., Europeans living among native peoples), highlighting the importance in avoiding such cultural misperceptions when creating works that aim for diversity and inclusion across multiple platforms, including video games like Saigon Ex-Frau Apocalypse. 5 / 10
