This Shadow of Mogg design blog explores some of the decisions behind the creation of the 'Intensive Care Nurse' class. One of the appropriately more useful classes in the game, especially compared to utterly useless trash like the Landlord class. https://manicproductions.co.uk/blogs/manic-prod-blog/shadow-of-mogg-design-blog-the-intensive-care-nurse-class

In this series of design blogs I’m going to go through each of the 36 classes in the table top roleplaying game Shadow of Mogg, of which I designed, to explain some of the creative decisions involved. In this blog we’re taking a look at the Intensive Care Nurse. The Intensive Care Nurse began si...

Serious question - How do people feel about politics in tabletop roleplaying games? I have just published a particularly overt political game about Brexit, however one could argue all games are political irrespective of how you frame them. Thoughts?

Shadow of Mogg is a post-apocalyptic table top roleplaying game set in the London underground following a catastrophic occurrence known only as ‘the event’. It uses a simple d6 system combined with group and voting resolution mechanics with a focus on survival, old school tunnel crawling and resource management.

Players take the role of mostly ordinary members of the British public, whether the oppressed proletariat, a humble baker, a nurse, a firefighter, a time traveller or the Chief Executive of RBS as they eke out survival in an underground society turned inward against itself.

The game explores the ramifications of mob rule democracy, the frailty of hope and the banality of evil, the horror of the underground you can play as Candle Stick Maker!
