Unruly Designs

We specialize making  award-winning, provocative, political, historical and educational games that transform player relationships with history and the world around them. 

Unruly Designs is the home of the War Birds series of games about women fighting on the front lines of history. Games like Model Protectorates, Keeping the Candles Lit, and The Things She Carried in the War Birds Anthology and Lumberjills illuminate the forgotten contributions of women in World War II.  Games like Rosenstrasse,  Against the Grain (War Birds Anthology) and A Plague Among Us allow players to shine a spotlight on the relevance of that history on our world  today.  

Games like Our Last Meal,  Through All These Years  invite players to share intimate moments in communion with each other while they ponder the temporality of relationships and the lingering nature of love. 

And we'll periodically post tiny games like Ring or experimental games like Crow that we've designed to explore an idea, or just for fun!

If you would like to purchase physical copies of our games, you can find them at our Indie Press Revolution Store Front.

If you play our games, please let us know! It's sometimes lonely to release games into the wild, and there's nothing better than finding out that people read, ran or played a game and found it interesting or valuable. Please don't be shy!
