Art/design: A mixture of public domain images and hand illustration enhanced with clean and consistent design with just the right amount of flair.
Usability: Clean, legible, and fun. 

Amaliel

Concept: “bearer of blights, plague herald, from your foul presence deliver us.” 
Content: A divine infection for Forbidden Psalm.
Writing: A fly infested, disease injecting angel. 
Art/design: Found/generated images of distorted and chitinous forms, with text creeping across their surfaces.

Apocryphal Trinity

Concept: “In search of hope, in a desperate cry for help, always greater evils are the first to answer... Never pray for deliverance, in times of torment” 
Content: A trio of unknowable gods, brought low for Forbidden Psalm.
Writing: Powerful and game-altering entities that impact or produce entire scenarios.
Art/design: A kaleidoscope of overlayed images and patterns, with text intermingling with the images in hostile and alien configurations.
Usability: Again, aggressively toying with the concept of legibility. It’s not unreadable, but you may have to work for parts of it. 

Basilisk! - Tunnels of Nechrubel

Concept: "Explore the chaotic passages beneath Verhu's catacombs... occult relics and terrifying creatures lurk therein!" 
Content: A two-player expansion to Basilisk!, with chaotic tunnels to explore.

Usability: Consistency in visual elements and subtle navigation aids in easy reference.  

Crawling Cauldron

Concept: “Sigil of the pact, shackle with invisible chains, cursed contraption parodying life.”
Content: A walking, talking, stewing cauldron.
Writing: Special abilities make it a mysterious potion delivery service.

Usability: Slightly incoherent.

Dread Nights

6 contributors
Concept: “Honest work for those with a death wish, a lack of fear, or just desperate enough to do anything.” 
Content: A standalone gaslamp era gothic horror expansion for Forbidden Psalm, including 15 creatures of the night, infections, and a gothic horror themed campaign of grisly nocturnal scenarios.
Writing: Familiar horror tales stalk just beyond the illumination provided by clear mechanics and crisp scenarios.
Art/design: An elegantly restrained palette of red, black, and white. Shadowed by macabre illustrations in a variety of styles.
Usability: Clear index, reliable sections, quick reference, roster sheets, and consistent formatting make it a utilitarian wargaming rulebook. 

Dungeons and Death

“In the dark corners of an inn called Discord, tall tales of horrific places were told: caves made from the skulls of giants, statues to long-dead gods, and a pie shop where the meat is indeed murder. Do you dare plunder the depths of such wicked places?”

Fobophage

Concept: “‘Then, i was lost in madness and servitude of the abomination, merely existing, becoming one of them...’ 
-Last shrieking of Monseigneur inquisitor Mattheulomew the cruel, before mutating into a fobophage.”
Content: Mind-controlling body-snatching brain parasites for Forbidden Psalm.
Writing: A simple and largely un-sophistic in its babble

A full, stand-alone 28mm wargame based on (and compatible with) Mörk Borg
Writing:
There’s a lot of it—which is necessary for a tactics game—but it’s straightforward and clear in its exposition
Art/design:
A balance of familiar graphic and typographic maneuvers balanced with the technical clarity and readability demanded by a more complex system
Usability:
A more methodical, strategically oriented game, but a good fit for fans of wargames and Mörk Borg

Forbidden Psalm: A Gloomy Day

Concept: “Across the Chemical Wastes comes a collaboration soaked in mud and choking from gas... a collection of 3 Scenarios, new monsters, and weapons”

devoid of life, you make your way through its empty, 
leaf-littered streets.

Writing: Diverting mechanics and troubling art allow the cryptids to speak for themselves.
