Nobody sent security forces to our customers’ door to confiscate the RPGs in our April 2023 Solidarity Bundle. By focusing on corporate accountability and citizen empowerment, these games – about modern life, cryptography fantasy, and dystopian futures – help you understand why a Hasbro executive feels free to dispatch private security to your home to seize your purchases – and how we can start addressing that fact.
There were seven complete games and supplements in our Solidarity Collection (retail value $105.50) as DRM-free .PDF ebooks, including Beat the Boss (Practical Fox); Comrades (W.M. Akers); Cryptomancer (Land of NOP); SIGMATA (Land of NOP); Uprising (Evil Hat Productions) and its expansion Revolutionary Messages; and Winterhorn (Bully Pulpit Games).
Note: Each of these titles had already appeared in one of five previous Bundle offers: Indie Cornucopia 4 (Nov 2016), Fiasco and More (April 2019), Cornucopia 7 (Nov 2019), Bundle of Fate 5 (Nov 2019), or Apocalypse Engine 4 (May 2020).
Ten percent of each payment (after gateway fees) went to this Solidarity Bundle‘s designated charity, Corporate Accountability. Corporate Accountability stops transnational corporations from devastating democracy, trampling human rights, and destroying our planet.
PS: By the way – no joke – shortly after the private-security incident, Wizards of the Coast started looking for a Director of Strategic Response Communications.

Kind of a bad call putting Sigmata in there. The game whose premise is ‘you must ally with the fascists to fight fascists, oh and they will inevitably betray you’ is a pretty poor fit.
Seriously, not kidding. By design, your insurrection has to balance their relationships with the in-game factions to exist, and said factions are:
The Old Men, basically the entire right-wing gun culture, full of former cops and soldiers upset that the Regime is doing fascism without the color of law to hide behind.
The Party, tankies who in a late-game twist turn out to be working for Russia.
The Faith, christofascists upset that the Regime is more into televangelism.
The Makers, Randian libertarians upset that laws that don’t profit them solely exist.
