Dead Flesh – Zombie Apocalypse RPG

Digital Copies

All digital rewards have been delivered to Backers. If you backed the project and haven’t received your files, check your Kickstarter Backer's Only messages or reach out directly.

Physical Copies

We’re proud to be working with Standart Impressa out of Vilnius, Lithuania — the same printer behind Pirate Borg and a whole graveyard’s worth of twisted Borg titles. They know how to bring darkness (and light) to the page — and how to make a book feel like it crawled right outta the Mörk Borg family tree. Printer Proofs Approved and waiting on the printer.

The Dead Flesh Core Book will feature:

• Embossed Cover

• Ribbon Marker

• Two Cover Variants (both currently in production)

Backers will be notified the moment books ship from the printer. At that time, I’ll send out a message via Kickstarter to lock in shipping addresses before fulfillment begins.

After the Backers Get Their Books

Once all physical rewards have been shipped, remaining copies will be made available to the public.

If you missed the campaign, don’t worry — you’ll still have a chance to grab a copy...

After the dead have been fed.

Upcoming Project – Late 2025

Hellfire N’ Grit

A CVRSED SPLATTER WESTERN RPG

Compatible with Mörk Borg

The West is broken. The Seals are shattered. Antediluvian demons devour souls, unleashed upon outlaws and innocents alike. Angels preach in saloons. Devils ride free. And the sky bleeds ash.

Ride into a cursed frontier of six-shooters, sulfur, and the supernatural — where the land is dying, and something older than Hell is clawing its way free.

Hellfire N’ Grit is a brutal, rules-light RPG set in a hell-ravaged 1877. Play cursed gunslingers, witches and preachers, snake oil prophets—and worse—fighting to survive a land torn between Heaven, Hell, and something far more hungry.

You don’t level up. You Get Meaner—or you die.

Shoot fast. Pray louder.

Design, writing, and art by: Dan Frederick, Nick Bradshaw, Tania Herrero, John Zeleznik, Paul Sweeney, R. Christopher Hickok, and Wacław Traier. 

More contributors are on the way. If you're an artist and reckon your work belongs in the cursed dust of the West, reach out—we're always lookin’ to ride with more talent.

Print copy of Shadowdark - Frostbound Shadows is available now.

A physical copy is available at Lulu.  If you do buy it there be sure to email me for a free copy of the PDF.
