Dungeons & Direct Actions
A downloadable chapter
Dungeon Punk, Punk Dungeons
Bog-standard dungeon fantasy the way they played it in the 1970s has some problems. The biggest name in the business sprang from the head of a guy who thought genocide was Lawful and Good, after all. But exploring dangerous places, fighting weird monsters, and leveling up--there's gotta be a way to have that kind of fun without being a bigoted asshole, right?
Enter Dungeons and Direct Actions, an add-on for dungeonpunk that puts an antifascist spin on the dungeoneering enterprise. Kick in the doors of fash bases, liberate oppressed people, and teach gods and masters the error of their ways!
The PDF contains:
- Play advice for avoiding oppressive tropes in any dungeon fantasy gaming
- Six villainous ideologies for the baddies of your game to follow
- Sample monster stat blocks formatted for dungeonpunk
I may have fucked some stuff up. If I did, let me know in the comments. I'll listen, learn, and revise!

It's really a great resource you did, thanks for sharing it ! Would you be ok if I translate it into French and share ? The antifa dungeons would surely interest people near me :)
(sorry for the public posting, I couldn't find any other way to contact you)
Sure, go for it! I have the "uncopyright" stamp there, people can do with the text as they like!
Great ! I'll add a link to it here once translated then :)
Finally catching up on things, and this looks super dope!
I am so in love with this! I have been working on a hack for a couple of weeks and I would love to include this into it because it fits perfectly with the kind of subversions I am hoping to provoke! I could send the drafts to you inf you want!
I used the CC0 "do whatever you want, you don't even have to attribute" license, so do as you please! I'd be happy to look at whatever you feel like sharing, though!
I'll send you a message with some pages later, whenever I can. in the meantime, I did setup a placeholder page with some insight into the game: https://thegiftofdice.itch.io/fantasypunk
Hey there! Here it is.
I love me some antifascist games. They’re so cathartic. I can’t wait to try this out later.
I already read the document and I really like what I see.
Thanks for making this. :)
Fuck YES.
