Eclipse Phase is one of my favourite ever RPGS & I can’t wait to try The Snarl (looks like a really weird, in a good way, alternative fantasy RPG) All the recommends 💜

Did you know octopuses are technically colorblind? 🌈 One photoreceptor, no color vision, should only see in grayscale. So how are they perfect color matching camouflage artists? 🐙 A thread 🧵 (with sources at the end, of course 😋) 🦑🐡

Only something like Eclipse Phase could get away with such an out-there adventure premise and I am 100% here for it and recommend this game to anyone and everyone who wants fun sci-fi adventures.

Eclipse Phase is a really cool game. It is now also a really cheap game. If you ever wanted to play an uplifted gorilla or an angry toaster or a sentient spaceship or a nanotech cloud, this is where you get to do that.

Arcana are, of course, a major source of plot hooks. Thieving arcana from a rival tribe is a favorite way of stealing thunder — the common practice of one-upping your neighbors and rival groups for status.

Posthuman Studios • Eclipse Phase • The Snarl @posthumanstudios.com · 24/02/2026
When you achieved peer status with a group, they gift gear and other resources to you without the need for barter.
140
Posthuman Studios • Eclipse Phase • The Snarl @posthumanstudios.com · 24/02/2026
Arcana are not hoarded to gain wealth, however. Instead, they are gifted to others. Gifting raises your status with that particular group or faction, until they count you as one of their own.
150
Posthuman Studios • Eclipse Phase • The Snarl @posthumanstudios.com · 24/02/2026
They might also include items crafted from rare materials, such as sword crafted from the rare star-metal (metal otherwise not existing in the setting). It also includes things like uncommon medicines, unusual saps, and the unusual major arcana, or magic items of the setting.
160
Posthuman Studios • Eclipse Phase • The Snarl @posthumanstudios.com · 24/02/2026
Second, there are arcana — rarer, more valuable items. These are often cultural artifacts, perhaps holding significance to a particular clan or faction.
160
Posthuman Studios • Eclipse Phase • The Snarl @posthumanstudios.com · 24/02/2026
These are largely handled in the abstract but can be defined by the GM for flavor (or via a random table). Goods are used to trade with strangers for gear and supplies the party needs for their kits.
160
Posthuman Studios • Eclipse Phase • The Snarl @posthumanstudios.com · 24/02/2026
Rest assured, there is still loot — of a sort. First, there are goods, which are tangible items that have value to the Weald’s communities: rare foods, artisanal goods, tools, art, and other staples.
170
Posthuman Studios • Eclipse Phase • The Snarl @posthumanstudios.com · 24/02/2026
So how does this work within an RPG, where PCs are normally incentivized to kill monsters and take their treasure? In The Snarl, people do not adventure for gold and wealth — they are driven by other motivations: protection, exploration, archeology, socio-political conflicts, etc.
160
Posthuman Studios • Eclipse Phase • The Snarl @posthumanstudios.com · 24/02/2026
With society organized on a smaller scale such as clans and towns, things are more collectivized. Amongst locals, resources are shared and gifted. When traveling or interacting with strangers, barter is common.
150
Posthuman Studios • Eclipse Phase • The Snarl @posthumanstudios.com · 24/02/2026
The vertical environment of skyscraper-sized trees makes farming and agriculture challenging, which puts constraints on the number and sizes of large settlements.
160
Posthuman Studios • Eclipse Phase • The Snarl @posthumanstudios.com · 24/02/2026
Despite its unusual environs, The Snarl was once (and still largely is!) a place of abundance. Food and the resources needed to survive are readily available to small-scale groups.
160
Posthuman Studios • Eclipse Phase • The Snarl @posthumanstudios.com · 24/02/2026
When we set out to design the world of The Snarl, we specifically avoided certain fantasy tropes. Specifically, we steered away from the faux-feudalistic politics and economies that are the default for most games.

Veetling twins often stick together throughout their lives, maintaining close relations, but it is not uncommon for them to go their separate ways as adults.

Posthuman Studios • Eclipse Phase • The Snarl @posthumanstudios.com · 19/02/2026
Veetling mothers lay single fertilized eggs that almost always hatch identical twins. As they grow, veetling children go inactive for a day several times a year to molt until they reach adulthood.

They smell with their antenna and hear with tympanal organs on their head, but unlike other insectoids breath and speak through their mouths.

Veetlings sport two pairs of dragonfly-like or butterfly-like wings, four fingers and toes, sharp teeth, and dual sets of forward-facing dark eyes. Their heads come in a variety of shapes, typically mounted on long necks.

Posthuman Studios • Eclipse Phase • The Snarl @posthumanstudios.com · 19/02/2026
Veetlings are a species of small, winged anthropomorphic insectoids, notable for their speed, maneuverability, stealthiness, and mischievousness. Though sociable, veetlings have a reputation for being fierce and carnivorous.
