Book Description

Publication Date: April 28, 2005

Everyone is a traitor! So goes the ethos of Paranoia, the surreal, twisted vision of an Orwellian future where players are positively encouraged to betray each other merely to survive, and the most unique roleplaying game on the market today. Get them before they get you – and here’s the stuff to do it with! Paranoia STUFF provides 128 pages of bleeding-edge (?) equipment necessary to ensure that the citizen is last clone standing in Alpha Complex, all catalogued in the same black and ironic humour so iconic to the game. Weapons, equipment, cybernetic enhancements, foodstuffs and assorted doodads in many categories -- over 150 items in all. The Computer Phreaks secret society has kindly hacked the listing for C-Bay, the leading Alpha Complex auction site, so for once you can read customer comments that explain how these items may backfire. If you think that will help your Troubleshooter survive better when you get issued this equipment -- well, maybe you're right, but we'll try to prevent that. Written by chief Paranoia writer Allen Varney, Paranoia STUFF is a passionately produced book, the next instalment of an extensively supported development programme. Paranoia is destined to once more provide roleplayers with the sort of frantic gaming experience that proved so popular at the game’s inception - there has never been a roleplaying game like it!

This review is from: Paranoia: Stuff (Paperback)

Paranoia is a great game system, and it deserves nothing less than the most violent, painful, and explosive toys to play with. Most of this stuff should only be used to get your players into serious trouble with Our Friend The Computer.. so let them get into a fix and explain why those lowly REDs were caught with a VIOLET weapon.. and BLUE pharmaceuticals..
