Survival of the Able Ashcan
One cannot see them. One cannot hear them. One cannot run from them. Together¸ you must survive them. Survival of the Able is a tabletop RPG about people with disabilities overcoming a zombie apocalypse. In this game¸ you'll play as a person with a disability living in a Medieval Western European almshouse when the Black Death comes to your village. Those who die of the plague are rising again as zombies¸ and they're hungry for flesh. Do you have what it takes to survive? About this Game Survival of the Able was written by Jacob Wood¸ a blind game designer¸ with the intention of creating an RPG that doesn't treat disabilities like a drawback to be bought off during character creation. Each player takes on the role of a disabled character as they are faced with the challenge of their lives: to overcome a zombie apocalypse in a world that treats people with disabilities as a burden. This game is for disabled and non-disabled players alike. It is designed to help build solidarity for people with disabilities and provide a safe¸ fun space to explore what it means to have a disability and to overcome the attached social stigmas.
