The Abortioniasts is an emotionally charged drama set in 1970s Chicago that revolves around three
women who risk imprisonment to provide illegal abortions for impoverished people while discovering
their own power as feminists. The game challenges players' perspectives on feminist politics,
advocates counseling individuals seeking abortion and uses a meta-technique of performing the
procedure through its character interactions with each other during heated arguments about these
issues. Players will come across characters that they care deeply about but also may oppress them in
equal measure while learning to see their own oppression as racist within feminism itself; this
challenging realization comes after players argue passionately over feminist politics, counsel
clients seeking abortions and conduct illegal procedures using a meta-technique based on the game's
card set. Players do not need any prior knowledge of living or historical periods but require some
interest in gender norms during an era when their rights were under intense scrutiny to play this
emotionally affecting larp about empowering women while discovering new things about themselves as
feminists and social justice activists alike.
