A look at the seven cultures of the post-apocalyptic Degenesis RPG

It’s been a bad week for Degenesis publisher SIXMOREVODKA. Their PAX Unplugged was ruined. However, as a result, if you have either a US or a Canadian mailing address, then you can register at their web store and get free international shipping for the last few days of this week. Why? The indie studio is trying to make up for their lack of presence at one of the year’s biggest gaming expos.

Degenesis is a two-book, hardback, RPG and so shipping is worth saving if you can. Degenesis is so large because it is packed with beautiful art and details of a very dangerous future earth.

Geek Native now has a series of Degenesis posts online, starting with this introduction teaser, then this review and finally this art teaser of cults of the apocalypse.

This post is another art teaser and in it we’re looking at the seven main cultures that you can find in the ruins of Europe. You can mix and match most cultures with cults when you build your PC, but not all of them.
