The Electric State Roleplaying Game is based on the art book The Electric State by acclaimed visual artist and author Simon Stålenhag. This tabletop RPG uses Free League’s Year Zero Engine, known from award-winning games such as Mutant: Year Zero, Tales From the Loop RPG, ALIEN RPG, and theBlade Runner RPG.
This is a game about a group of travelers heading out on a journey through a strange America in an alternate 1997. The ruins of gigantic battle drones litter the countryside, heaped together with the discarded trash of a high tech consumerist society in decline.
