SoulMuppet Publishing develops roleplaying games that focus on emotional storytelling and simple yet elegant design. Our books are just like our settings: unconventional, atmospheric and unashamedly political.

Our main gamelines are BEST LEFT BURIED, ORBITAL BLUES, INEVITABLE and PAINT THE TOWN RED:

BEST LEFT BURIED is a rules-light, fantasy horror roleplaying game - where the monsters are scary and you are scared. Written by Zachary Cox & Nick Spence and illustrated by Ben Brown. Players are Cryptdiggers; professional dungeon-divers who venture into monster-infested Crypts seeking riches.

ORBITAL BLUES is a lo-fi space western roleplaying game. Written by Sam Sleney & Zachary Cox and illustrated by Joshua Clark. A roleplaying love-letter to off-beat sci-fi, vintage music, and cooperative old-school styled roleplay, Orbital Blues allows you to play out rules-light tabletop adventures in the style of space westerns.

INEVITABLE is a doomed Arthurian western roleplaying game. Written by Zachary Cox and illustrated by Klur Arts. It is a play-to-lose game of failing to stop the apocalypse, of doomed heroes of legend facing off against their foes in a dusty, dreary world.

PAINT THE TOWN RED is a sad vampire roleplaying game. Created by Zachary Cox (Orbital Blues, Inevitable, Best Left Buried) and with art direction from Johan Nohr (MÖRK BORG, CY_BORG, Into The Odd). This is a game about depression, partying and falling in love, and explores themes of trauma, vice and loneliness. 

Our third party works focus on queer creators and those with poor access to market, with a particular focus on writers from the Global South who may not have access to printing physical copies in Global North markets.
