Red Markets from Hebanon Games is a tabletop roleplaying game of economic horror. The second edition is being playtested, and you can pay what you want for a copy. You can do so for 2025.
In the TTRPG, player characters are takers, mercs and entrepreneurs who trade from quarantine zones of zombie undeath and those shelters of humanity left.
The goal is to make some cash before extinction, which requires a hustle, a scam, and the ability to survive zombie horror.
The first game, which was released in 2018, picked up an ENNIE Best Game nominee and is still available.
The second edition updates the Profit System so that rules are simpler and, therefore, the horror is more immersive. There’s a Taker Handbook in the new edition, GM Material in Market Analysis, cards, briefs and tools such as randomisers and pre-gen stats.
Hebanon Games says;
This feature-complete RPG is FREE for anyone willing to provide feedback and help refine the game before publication.
The request for feedback is important. A year-long playtest is significant. Hebanon is an indie publisher and is crowdsourcing thoughts to make a TTRPG better.
