Reading through *Hard Wired Island* and lol the person who wrote it is so real. ACAB is the name of a literal perk lmao. It's nice having literal anti-capitalist stuff written into it, more explicit and modern than something like Shadowrun.

#HardWiredIsland is a fun system that I probably won't ever DM again if I'm being honest. I'd gladly play in it at some point, though!

Rupert likes tech! Rupert is also kind of an idiot. Rupert is, technically, a tech industry reporter - but since he barely understands how any of it works, he more ends up a tech culture/work environment reporter instead. He has been blacklisted from multiple industry events for exposing ludicrous crunch times. He also regularly bricks his phone. Lord help him.

Rupert's character sheet for Hard Wired Island. It's nice when they're only one page.

I ran twenty-one sessions of this system I'm allowed to have Opinions on it now.

The game is...it's a cool setting, but I'm a bit torn on it mechanically. Very simple and straightforward, which is nice, but a lot of it felt like a strange compromise between rules lite narrative and wanting to solve the Shadowrun Problem.

Last day to back Wetrunner, from the creator of Hard Wired Island. Like Island, it's a cyberpunk rpg that diverges from the standard grim aesthetic while leaning into the punk social commentary. In this case, that's a retro summer aesthetic while performing heists stealing fish status symbols from the rich!

Two individuals, a woman on the left and a man on the right. Both are dressed in bright colored summer clothes. The woman has blonde hair, bright blue eyes, and is adjusting a pair of sunglasses. The man has a blue neon cybernetic device on his head, and is holding a small pet-like robot. The woman is wearing a swimsuit like outfit that is bright pink and pastel purple. The man is wearing a Hawaiian print lab coat and pink swim trunks.

Finally managed to get a “dead tree” version of #HardWiredIsland #rpg #trpg. Honestly, I did not understand why the book was so rare and expensive, as I was expecting a small format (the text size is large enough), but I received instead a full-sized hardcover book of 400 pages. Gotta understand the price! Iy might have been more relevant to aim for a smaller format, honestly.
