comment
CY_BORG is, as the name implies, a Cyberpunk hack of Ockult Örtmästare Games and Stockholm Kartell's Doomsday Dark Fantasy Tabletop RPG MÖRK BORG, created by Christian Sahlén and Johan Nohr, and published by Free League Publishing in 2022.Set in the sprawling corporate-dominated Mega City of Cy, CY_BORG takes the rules-light OSR allusions of MÖRK BORG and translates it via a few adjustments and updates to a formula of running dangerous jobs in a Cyberpunk setting, leaning into the "punk" aspect of Cyberpunk by raging against the aforementioned corporate hellscape everyone lives in. All the while, players end up being menaced by all manner of horrifying things including warring gangs, warring corporations, natural disasters and an alien virus that specifically infects cybernetics.The game can be bought digitally on DriveThruRPG, and physically on Free League's website.

 CY_BORG (2022) (Tabletop Game) / int_1c7555f1
comment
The Virus: An alien virus that crashed in the middle of the city has spread throughout the entire setting, specifically wreaking havoc on nanotechnology. And that's on top of everyone having to deal with ordinary biological illnesses.

Crapsack World
 CY_BORG (2022) (Tabletop Game) / int_21d70919
comment
Crapsack World: The world Cy occupies is every bit the crapsack that its Dark Fantasy predecessor is. The world is ravaged by ecological catastrophe, poisonous space rocks, nuclear weapons, warring nations and corporations, pandemics, tsunamis and volcanoes — and that's not even mentioning the capitalistic horrors of the city itself, the corporations, the Nanophreaks, the rogue AIs, and everything else that wants to kill and/or eat you. The areas beyond Cy consist of factory meat farms, automated agricultural machines the size of cathedrals, and armies of clear-cutter drones that couldn't care less for what or who they cut down. Even worse, the entire world, as revealed in the final Miserable Headline, is a simulation designed to reset itself upon anyone discovering this fact.

Pun-Based Title: "Cyborg" for the cybernetic enhancement aspect inherent in cyberpunk, "Cy" for the name of the city the game takes place in", and "Borg" to signify the mechanical and stylistic connections to Mork Borg.

Techno Wizard: Downplayed - the Burned Hacker starts with one random app they built that serves the purpose of spellcasting, and any further apps acquired outside of circumstances like this require the acquisition of a physical cartridge that often require doing favours for other hackers to obtain.

Urban Ruins: G0 or Ground Zero is where Old Cy once stood before the bombs fell. It's walled off from the rest of the city, with only those with a death wish daring to venture there due to the Nanophreaks, pockets of nerve gas and radioactive space rocks. Scavengers, smugglers, cultists and opportunistic scientists are the only humans you'll find out there.

Timed Mission: Rolling an 11 on the complication table during mission generation gives the next job a short deadline. Thanks to the Miserable Headline mechanic, the entire campaign turns out to be running on limited time depending on how often the GM rolls for headlines, leading up to the world being reset.

Microbot Swarm: Two cases show up on the nanopowers table - "Cosmic Dust Bots", which heavily impairs visibility within up to 20m in diameter, and "Swarm Trip", which transfers the user's consciousness and perception to a swarm of flying bacteria, opening up endless movement possibilities at the cost of being unable to interact with anything.
