Book excerpt: EVERYTHING CHANGED WHEN THE BOMBS DROPPED... We always expected that we would die slaves to the system at a ripe old age, or at the very least as victims of the global climate crisis or the ant-vaxxer movement. What we didn't expect was for one event - just a few moments - to bring about the end of everything we knew. In just a few minutes, everyone we loved was dead. The world would never be the same. We became citizens of The World After. Teenage Wasteland is a coming-of-age game about kids struggling to survive and come into their own in a bomb-ravaged nuclear and biological wasteland. These kids must not only struggle against each other, but also deadly mutated creatures and mindless, zombie-like Ghouls that adults became after the bombs fell. The game focuses on growth and development from kids toward adulthood, and all of the drama and conflict that comes with it as well as the struggle to simply survive in a world ravaged by biological weaponry and nuclear fallout. Included are: Five Unique Clique Types. Detailed within are the physically tough Jock, the socially ineffable Mean Girl, the intensely intellectual Nerd, the charismatic Popular kid and the mysterious Outsider. Each comes with unique powers, gear, and advancement rules suited to their role. Tribe Creation Rules. Inside are rules to create a unique gang type called Tribe.
