cannibalism
Cannibal Cook
Concept: “Some people are dying. Other people are hungry. You just might have found a way to solve both their problems.”
Content: A character class whose name says it all
Writing: Showcases the comedic side of eating people
Art/design: Clever layout and typographic design with perfect public domain art
Usability: Stylized but pretty straightforward
Making Friends and Eating People
Concept: “Eat your friends. They’d do the same for you.”
Content: Optional rules for upcycling dead characters and benefits for doing so
Writing: Darkly humorous and appropriately off-kilter
Art/design: If Hell has insane asylums and their cafeterias have menus, they probably look like this
Usability: The mechanics are nestled in with the flavor text, but if you know what you’re looking for, you’re good to go
Time for Tea
Content: A surreal string of events revolving around a teapot and some invisible visitors
Writing: Clearly traces the album’s thread through descriptions and unified, interlinking rules and mechanics
Art/design: The text’s hues and temperature contrast well against the ground, and its layout amongst the images creates shapes reminiscent of pouring tea or rising steam
Usability: “Do not include this teapot in your game unless your scvm are ready for: inter-party conflict, spilled blood, hypnotism, memory loss, and light cannibalism.”
