Set out across an alternate, decaying 1997 America, where the wreckage of giant battle drones rusts beside the junk of a burnt-out consumer boom. Built on Simon Stalenhag's haunting narrative artwork, The Electric State is a roleplaying game about the journey rather than the destination — who you are, who your friends are, and what you'll do as the world quietly falls apart around you. The Core Rulebook is everything you need to run it.
