What is SNARL?

SNARL is a ‘zine, which is short for magazine. Back in the day, ‘zines were photocopied and published to be sold and traded at punk shows and other underground scenes. Our ‘zine is a yearly publication which includes a standalone microgame and a few add-ons for some of our previous titles. It’s only available in PDF, but it’s formatted so you can print a cool little booklet if you want, and relive your punk rock youth - or start a new one.

There was a concern, during the first nuclear test in July of 1945, that the explosion might set the planet’s atmosphere on fire. Luckily, for us it didn’t. But in the world of our first microgame “Tanks” for the Apocalypse, it did. As a lucky (or perhaps unlucky?) survivor - you’ve gotten ahold of an M4 Sherman from the Lima Locomotive Works in Ohio - no longer destined for the front lines of WWII - and now you’re terrorizing the other survivors in the American Midwest. And then, you meet another tank that had the same idea. A quick and fun tank combat game for two to ten players.

Also in this issue, there’s a new philosophy in Hell, and they’re bringing the denizens of this place together to take over the realm through rituals, traditions – and faith. Hell hasn’t seen anything like this in a long time. Check out the new philosophy in Reign in Hell: The Reckoning, an add-on faction and two new scenarios for our first published game.

Lastly, the structure of Space Station Zero is vast, ancient, and mostly unknown. However, new equipment has been found, and you can outfit your team with advanced technology, gear, and weapons. All that and more are found in Space Station Zero: New Discoveries, add-on gear for our sophomore release.
