Planet Alcatraz (what if Vlad Putin made an RPG?)
🕑 Added 2022-04-30 17:06:31 +0000 UTCA bunch of Russians made a boomer RPG:
* The entire thing is written in Soviet prison jargon and is almost untranslatable (the English version is reportedly horrible).
* Creepy fucked up shit.
* The lead writer is a son of a Soviet instructor of the North Korean military.
* He is probably gonna become the president one day.
* The story is based on a book of Quake fanfiction which is also reviewed in the video.
* Potatoe-based combat system.
* The lead writer is a Quake multiplayer specialist and an early e-sports evangelist.
* Stratagem gamma activated.
* The Russians who made this are extremely insecure about black masculinity / bbc. The game has an absurd amount of flamboyantly gay black characters.
* Choices and consequences: become a Nazi or a cannibal!

One of the few games that I've discovered by random chance on steam a few years ago. I've always been fascinated by the obscure, janky, and outright bizarre games that come from russia, but also earlier german and czech/slovak/polish/ukrainian games. It's too bad the second one isn't officially translated at all, although I've been keeping tabs on folks who are attempting a fan edit.

It wouldn’t be good for a positive uplifting fun video but I’d love to hear your take on TNO
