DIE TO LIVE OR LIVE TO DIE!

About Old Storytellers or a Game of Campfire Lore (AOS) diverges from the realm of classic mythology utilizing the rich themes and fearsome critters found in North American folklore. The genre can varying widely between fantasy, horror, western, mystery, adventure, steampunk, etc. depending on the type of story being played. Some base elements include: lumberjacks, a lost republic, secret society and mysterious invisible world. With easy step-by-step 10-page instructions, no previous experience is required, and your adventure can start in no time!

AOS is a game that makes decisive use of minimalist graphics and dysfunctional team interaction to challenge players' imaginations and improve their abilities as storytellers. The game frequently favors an entertaining, unexpected defeat over formulaic short-term victories, as often it can be more fun to make the wrong choices than the right ones.

As well, great care has been taken to pattern the game closely to the legends that inspired it, making AOS one of the most faithful games to tradition to date.

Some other features include:

* Shorter Rules and Expanded Character Development
* Free Digital PDFs and Printable Digest Sizes
* Full-Page Archaic Swearing Sheet Included for Hurling Insults (e.g. “You wild-eyed, shiftless, doggone, indolent, ornery gadabout!”)

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.
