🤝 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.
- Safety tools (X-card, lines & veils, session zero)
According to the game’s own description
“Use the safety tools provided (or any others you feel comfortable with) while playing this game.”
Description
BODY//HACK is a solo journaling game about hacking your body. It takes place in a near future cyberpunk world. You’ll imagine the possibility of changing your body by replacing a body part with a futuristic machine part, and become a cyborg. Body//Hack explores your feelings about this transformation and your body. Every day for a month in real time you’ll keep a journal where you’ll record your feelings about this new body part. The questions regard not only your internal thoughts, but also how you feel about what others think about your new part. Use the safety tools provided (or any others you feel comfortable with) while playing this game. The game involves some potentially intense thoughts about our bodies and how we relate to them, so please play with care for yourself.
