Red Rooster's Gaming Coop
Saving Throes # 77 - Spotlight: Mörk Borg
Welcome to the Saving Throes podcast! This is my Tabletop role-playing game podcast, part of the Red Rooster's Gaming Coop network where I talk gaming and gaming culture every week. Each episode will feature a topic or theme along with my take on current happenings in the world of tabletop role-playing games and semi regular updates on the games I am currently involved with, or new games or products I have come across.
Mörk Borg is a game I have talked about for ages on this podcast, so it is high time that I do a spotlight episode on it. With Halloween just around the corner, I thought it was good timing to do it now. This is a very dark game and really does set a new standard for grim dark games. However, don't let the astonishing (and sometimes shocking) artwork and presentation deter you, because buried within its pages, the Mörk Borg rulebook is a very competent and inspiring game. Simplicity is it's focus but it does not sacrifice it's fun or level of engagement player's can have. While I think of it as part of the OSR, at least the new wave of OSR, it isn't trying to just be D&D, it is trying to be a wholly unique experience unto itself. Tune in to find out why this game has inspired a host of other Borg games, and has made a dent in the role-playing game universe.
