Citizen Sleeper
Roleplaying in the ruins of interplanetary capitalism. Live the life of an escaped worker, washed-up on a lawless station at the edge of an interstellar society. Inspired by the flexibility and freedom of TTRPGs, explore the station, choose your friends, escape your past and change your future.
Why on Deck
Citizen Sleeper is essentially a digital tabletop RPG, and there’s something fitting about reading it on a portable device. Curled up with it feels right in a way sitting at a desk just doesn’t. The text-heavy, turn-based structure means you can pause mid-cycle without consequence, and the dice mechanics are tactile and satisfying even without physical dice in hand. The writing earns every emotional gut-punch. It’s some of the best in any game from the last several years.
