the bog eternal
A downloadable swampy ttrpg
A very swampy solo-journalling ttrpg about fighting against oppression with your inherent attributes. Will you win that fight, or will you be just another statistic of bogs that have been drained.
Don't read into this. It definitely isn't an allegory for anything. It's just a game about a bog. A bog that is being harmed by forces outside it's control, by oppressive systems, by people doing and perpetuating harm against you and other bogs like you. Listen, stop reading into it. It's just a game about using your inherent traits to fight back against those previously mentioned forces. Aka humans. Humans are the worst. Like I said, nothing beneath the surface here.
You'll need a d4, a d6, and something to record your battles.
Save the bogs. Donate to and/or volunteer for your local wetland trust. Some options provided.
Any proceeds from this game will go towards my top surgery fund.

Hi! they just read through your swampy bog games. Looks like you're trying to found a whole new genre on your own.
These games are so beautiful. And I love that you are making these games for a cause.
My "Adventure of the month", that I'm currently working on, is set in a swamp and I wanted to make it a charity adventure module for conservation too! You can imagine how excited I was to find your games!
If you are ever in need of an illustrator (for free) and layouter for your games or would like to give the ones you already made a new lick of paint, don't hesitate to reach out: sleepybadgergames [ät] gmail.com
I'd love to support your games.

Kia ora, hi, Fe! Thank you so much! I appreciate you reading my games, and your kind words!
That's amazing, there need to be more cool swampy/boggy/wetlandy games in the world, and I'm glad to find someone else who's creating another!
Thank you so much for that offer too. These 3 wetland games are my first ever, so I'm definitely learning lots about layout very quickly, and will definitely keep you in mind for future projects! Appreciate the support very much.
Mauri ora, thanks again!

Kia ora Riwhi,
You are off to a wonderful start with your three first games. I'm looking forward to what's coming!
I mean it, don't hesitate to reach out. I'm always happy to collaborate or help somebody. There aren't many designers out there that have a naturalistic approach to TTRPGs addressing the more-than-human world. So keep it real keep it swampy! : )
(Reading your games and your comment just now...Gosh I miss NZ... I spent 6 months busking and (hitch)hiking there about 15 years ago...)
Have a nice day!
