Dark Future: Blood Red States Review
Mad Max on the streets, Judge Dredd in the sheets.
Welcome to the year 2025, where America has transformed into a corporate hellscape of twisted capitalism where gangs roam the streets and private law enforcement gears up to take them out in the middle of a worsening fuel shortage. Maybe we're six years away from just such a future in our own world, but as with all things dystopian and 80s, Auroch Digital have been able to blow the dust off Games Workshops' niche Dark Future board game and make it feel about as relevant in our climate crisis present as it's ever been.

Summary
Dark Future: Blood Red States is a quirky video game adaptation of this niche Games Workshop board game, and Auroch Digital have done a great job of preserving that feel in a real time form.

Score: 7/10
