🤝 Inclusive design Inclusive design is separate from a game’s queer labels. It marks games whose design is deliberately inclusive even when not queer-themed: romance or marriage mechanics with no gender constraint, character creation without a forced gender binary, gender-neutral rules language, or table safety tools. Each marker shows where we found it.

Description

For years upon years they were kept down-- cast out, chained to closets, or laid in the ground. The queers were dead, stamped out for good. Until now. Now the moon is full and the spirits are restless and the time is right for the queers to rise from their graves, to sweep out across the earth for the retribution that was denied them in life. The old world is ending, and the future is undead and queer. In Dead Queer Reckoning, you’ll collaborate to tell the story of the apocalypse, as a queer undead host overwhelms and destroys the world’s straight, capitalist, colonialist power structures. This was created for the "The Gays Will Not Stay Buried" Queer Undead Jam. It's still in development, and any feedback is welcome (but check your bigotry at the door). I'll update with a final version when complete.
