Beskrivning

Alpha Complex is a dystopian nightmare overseen by an ever-present, ever-paranoid Computer that is convinced enemies lie around every corner and no one can be trusted. It is awash in bureaucratic paperwork, conspiracy, and a callous disregard for human life. Imagine a world designed by Kafka, Stalin, Orwell, Huxley, Sartre and the Marx Brothers.

When a crisis threatens Alpha Complex, the Computer summons together a Council of High Programmers to resolve it…High Programmers who engage amongst themselves in a level of internecine power struggle that would put Machiavelli to shame. Think of them as the future equivalents of today’s billionaires…if they had ICBMs, functionally-equivalent immortality, and the power of life and death over people. The resulting backstabbing, sabotage, blackmail, and hijinx is unlikely to solve the crisis or actually be helpful to Alpha Complex in any way, but it is likely to be fed upon by the GMs like the emotional vampires they are.

Play this game if you want to convince people to use your marching band to stop a reactor from undergoing nuclear meltdown, rather than someone else’s nuclear engineers, so that you can take the credit. Or, play this game if you want to sabotage someone else’s nuclear engineers so that they fail and then people are forced to use your marching band.


Content Warnings

This game features a competitive atmosphere that fosters conspiracy, lies, and discord amongst the players. Although hopefully a (darkly) funny and entertaining game, it is not a cooperative or narrative game.

Furthermore, this game not only features the following subjects, but will play them for laughs: the worst excesses of late-stage capitalism, uncaringness to the suffering of others, and a callous disregard for human life.
