Get Groovy with Blades in the Dark '68, Baby!

Evil Hat Productions invite you to enter the Bluetime.

Coming soon to Backerkit, Blades '68 promises a bold new take on John Harper’s Blades in the Dark industrial-fantasy RPG. Set 100 years in the future of Blades in the Dark, this new RPG ‘launches [players] into the radical, Swinging Sixties’.

Described as a ‘450 page expansion from the subversive mind of Tim Denee’, Blades ‘68 takes players to the ‘vibrant streets of Doskvol’, there to discover ‘New playbooks, new crews, and new heists’. In this parody of the Swinging Sixties, there's ‘a plasmovision in every home [and] an autopod in every driveway’, and the average citizen enjoys ‘an age of science, conformity, and consumerism’.

Player characters, however, will anything but an average citizen. They’ll be ‘Radicals, Swingers, Intellectuals and Paranomalists’. Furthermore, they’ll live a life of ‘espionage, heists, [and] deceptions’ as they strive to build a criminal empire.

Blades ’68 launches soon on Backerkit. In the interim, you can download a free, 40-page preview from DriveThruRPG.

See the Backerkit preview for more details on this forthcoming campaign.
