"Ah, apocalypse. What better inspiration than the end of the world and the ragged, limitless possibilities of what comes after? Carlye Eckert [and Lucie Baker] create a cozy, possibly subterranean world full of ritual and games, in Project RUIN. Pioneer spirit thrives in the darkness of this new future."
