If you haven't yet, it is worth checking out Absurdia! A brilliant, beautiful little game that simulates its inspirations perfectly - and now you can buy a copy to hold in your (strange, humming, eight-fingered) hand!

Live now on Backerkit!

Absurdia is a love letter to classic and contemporary absurdist works like Welcome to Night Vale, Alice in Wonderland, and Gravity Falls in #TTRPG form.

Subvert normalcy. Embrace chaos. Get weird.
