System Pitch
Things from the Flood is a TTRPG using the Year Zero Engine, a D6 dice pool system from Free League, and the sequel to Tales from the Loop. You need no familiarity with any of these to play. Play as Teens in an alternate 1990s Sweden, after a decade of change and disaster, with plenty of weird stuff to investigate. There are the leftover remnants of a few decades of science-fiction technology (The Loop) gone awry. The Flood has transformed the once pastoral islands into a dark marshland. Some say that the dark water pouring out of the ground comes from within the Loop itself. Machines are afflicted by a strange virus, turning them unreliable and dangerous.
Still, your lives go on as before. You go to school, fall miserably in love, and try to do everything possible to fend off boredom. When you hear about other teens going missing, and even turning up dead, you realize its time to gather the group again.
One way or another, you will find out what these Things from the Flood really are. You're still balancing day-to-day life with solving exciting mysteries with your friends. But this is a darker time, and the stakes are higher. You're not a kid anymore, and death is not off the table.
Session Pitch
When the Teens find another local kid dead, they soon find themselves in the centre of a mystery threatening the whole population of the Mälaren Islands. What kind of creature is the machine fetus? And who are these strange robots guarding the secret?
