Dave Thaumavore RPG Reviews's video: Hack the Planet: This is what a modern cyberpunk RPG looks like RPG Review

Hack the Planet is a standalone cyberpunk RPG by Samjoko Publishing. It uses the rules from Blades in the Dark and offers some fresh concepts in the cyberpunk genre. The game is “Forged in the Dark” so it’s basically Blades in the Dark but cyberpunk. The art is plentiful and good, and the setting is well realized without being overly specific. The book itself contains all of the rules and advice from the Blades in the Dark book, so it doesn’t require any other books. ------------------------------------------------------------ My Blades in the Dark review: https://youtu.be/-paftFbNEUw A Guide to Forged in the Dark licensing: https://bladesinthedark.com/node/33 ------------------------------------------------------------ ▶️ Get Hack the Planet in PDF and/or print at DrivethruRPG.com: Purchases support the channel at no additional cost to you. http://bit.ly/2Uk7GBd --------------------------------------------------------------------- 🦾 Want more cyberpunk RPG action?
