My friends at Absurdist Productions are working on a new TTRPG with an indigenous setting by an award-winning indigenous designer. I've been playing the beta with them for a while now and both campaigns have had a wildly different and deeply interesting feel to them. If you are even remotely interested in such a game then I highly recommend subscribing to updates.
"1000 Generations is a narrative-first role-playing game set in an Indigenous fantasy world. Magic is real, everything is alive, and your existence is deeply tied to the land.
In this game, you'll craft a unique culture and community before creating your character. Instead of playing wandering adventurers, you are members of a community, guiding your people through hardship, danger, and opportunities they might encounter.
1000 Generation was created by Will Thompson (Cherokee Nation citizen), designer of Origins Award-winning Winter Rabbit. Illustrations for 1000 Generations are created by a team of Indigenous and international artists."

I felt strongly about this and wrote a white paper for Indigenous game designers in Canada to explore further. I hope it's helpful and welcome any feedback! #IndigenousGames #IndigenousKnowledge https://breadthofpopsanity.blogspot.com/2024/09/coyote-and-crow-in-canada.html

DUJGU!
The rules for the Sámi #tafl game Tablut were written down by Carl #Linnaeus in 1732, who learned to play it on a board embroidered on reindeer hide with pieces made in traditional Sámi #boardgame #duodji style.
Among the Lule #Sámi words he wrote down, "tuichu" (dujgu) is somewhat mysterious as its literal meaning is uncertain. "Dujgu" was said when a player positioned their King so that it had not just one but two open paths to escape the board, winning.
