Dead Air
A solo RPG set in post-apocalyptic Strathclayde, DEAD AIR is about running an abandoned radio station after nuclear fallout wiped out the city's population and government structure. The game includes scavenging for resources such as fuel to power generators or food items like canned beans that can be used during emergencies while maintaining a sense of humor throughout its design based on UK governmental messaging materials from years past, referencing 'All Things Nuclear' in particular with an emphasis on disaster management protocols which are not well-received. The game has been funded through Kickstarter and is available for purchase as both PDFs containing the 48 page zine or physical copies produced by a British small publisher that supports independent games creators like Caged City Games, where it was published initially before being made freely downloadable in digital format via its website after receiving funding from Patreon.
