In the Mail: the Tales From the Loop RPG.

Ah, I’ve been waiting for this one.

Tales From the Loop is a Swedish RPG (although it’s been designed to be accessible to the American market from the beginning) that lets you play as mystery-solving kids in a 1980s Sweden (or American Southwest) that’s full of Seriously Strange robots* and critters and whatnot.  It got Kickstarted a while back, and I happily signed on.  Now my copy has arrived.

Excellent.

*You know all that art by Simon Stalenhag?  The stuff with people dealing with giant robots and strange machinery in the middle of the countryside and whatnot?  Yeah, they did a game around his artwork.
