Tariffs are potentially devastating for tabletop games. Especially board games, for which no manufacturing options exist in the US. Even if the US spent a decade or two ramping up facilities, the raw materials (such as plastics) would still need to be imported.

Daily Illuminator: The Reality Of Tariffs In Tabletop Gaming
Over the next few weeks and months, you'll see social media posts discussing how companies cannot offer holiday bonuses or will have to cut employees due to Trump's tariffs (proposed or enacted).   ...

Currently working on a new game, It's A Murder! Inspired from works like Agatha Christie's And Then There Were None, Clue, and murder mystery, this Monster of the Week game takes a cast of killers, puts them on an island, and asks what next? I'm borrowing pieces from other systems too 1/2

MAD AS HELL is SoulMuppet's next #TTRPG, coming to Kickstarter next year.

This is an RPG of anti-capitalist demonhunting, where you fight the literal demons that feed on the evils of capitalism.
