A downloadable game

Play as mercenaries, citizens and cultist in this "Just like real life fr fr" "rules-lite-ish cause tactical elements are in the game" tabletop game where everything is quite dramatic, high stakes and/or mopey. Roll for what company bought you in utero and live out your wildest dreams as a janitor, line worker, graphic designer or whatever else you role/come up with. Who cares about playing nice in a world were your brain is used for some rich guys profit calculator when you die? Why bother stealing food in a world were most of the food is garbage anyways? Why deal with the harshness of life when you could get on your hands and knees and pray to a god? One that feeds you like your microwave. Or one that keeps you entertained like Lovelace? Or one that you really knows you,  like your car

Anyways, you like Cyberpunk and Dune?

Trigger warnings for parts of the book

Body horror, politics, racism, homophobia, transphobia, fetishization of minorities, fatphobia, use of queer slurs and general misery. Maybe some other stuff but I've covered the worse here..
