You forgot Systems Failure but it is a cool flow chart. The language barrier is a bit of an issue though - I know English isn't your first language so it is more than forgivable but probably less-so regarding the game names - After the Bomb and Chaos Earth are those in need of fixing.

I like using the Wheel of Morality to choose my games, but I will try this contraption.

I only wanted to use games currently avaible from PB. So SF is out.

Thanks for your suggestions. Could you please tell me if the following corrections are right?

Alfter the bomb: "Are PC mutated anthropomorphic animals?".

Chaos Earth: "Struggling against demons during the apocalypse".

Any other suggestion?

Thanks.

Looks good to me but it wasn't actually the flowchart itself that was the issue, it was the names of the books. You wrote Afetr De Bomb and Caos Earth, in English those books are After the Bomb and Chaos Earth (like you wrote above).

hmmm... not 100% sure (haven't read the books) but from what i gather, dead reign is actually a post-apocalyptic setting as well. post-apocalyptic doesn't need to be set in the distant future, it can be set in modern times, the main question is whether or not there has been some sort of world-ending (or rather, nearly world-ending) event in the setting's past.

so, for example, if it is the case with dead reign that most people have died, civilization has collapsed, and most of the world is inhabited by zombies that kill all the humans they find, it would be post-apocalyptic as well as being a 'modern' setting.

so, it might be simplest to put it on the other side of the 'modern' stuff and have a route to it from both modern and post-apocalyptic if that is the case.
