Ruma: Dawn of Empire
Publisher: Azure Keep
by Michael I. [Verified Purchaser]
Date Added: 01/17/2024 09:56:19

If you want Apocalypse World literally reskinned for the edges of a fictional Roman Empire, then this is for you. If you want any moves adding to the themes or genre like Sparticus, this will not do much for you. Also, there is a LOT of Latin names for things...which makes sense but for a simple reskin, mostly makes things more complicated and not worth the additional flavor.

Crown - Player Rules
Publisher: Mason Waaler
by Michael I. [Verified Purchaser]
Date Added: 01/17/2024 09:52:48

I would LOVE to get into a game of Whitehack. It seems to me that Crown adds in many of the rules that were intentionally left out of Whitehack because they are more simulationist and far less narrative. Which, I can understand some folks thinking Whitehack is too narrative forward but I'd rather stick with Whitehack 3e/4e

The Wayward Traveler's Guide City Sewer

It's a bit too clean and precise to give a sewer feel but it will work fine for a PWYW product

Trilemma Adventures Bestiary B/X

If you are running Trilemma with OSE, B/X, or most of the OSR D&D or D&D-like games, this is a MUST HAVE supplement and a very good value!

Carbon 2185 | A Cyberpunk RPG Core Rulebook
Publisher: Dragon Turtle Games
by Michael I. [Verified Purchaser]
Date Added: 09/24/2023 12:54:51

This is nothing more than 5e re-skinned. Absolutely no innovation on the rules, no improvements, a setting as cliche as cyberpunk gets. That said, it's not a bad port.

COCAINE OWLBEAR (or FANTASY WOODLAND COCAINE HEIST CREW)
Publisher: Fainting Goat Games
by Michael I. [Verified Purchaser]
Date Added: 09/24/2023 12:52:19

If this sounds AWESOME to you, do yourself a favor and pick it up! If you are on the fence, does Honey Heist rpg sound too childish but the concept seems fun? Then you WANT this game! PERFECT for a one shot where too many players are missing for your regular game. VERY simple rules, easy character creation, adult humor, everything you expected from this title!

Old-School Essentials Referee's Screen Inserts
Publisher: Necrotic Gnome
by Michael I. [Verified Purchaser]
Date Added: 09/02/2023 13:13:49

Updated: I updated to 4 stars because my original review was a bit unfair. I was just feeling more overwhelmed playing OSE than I would have expected after my first play with a poorly organized OSR adventure. That's quite helpful really so are the saving throws and really going through the book most of what would be critical to most sessions is there.

My real issue is: 1) that it could include abilities for more classes instead of spell progression 2) the OSR adventure was a disorganized mess (and not an OSE product)

Creator Reply:
It sounds like you may be thinking of a different product. The OSE referee's screen inserts consist purely of rules and procedures from the game: Combat rules + tables, Ability checks + saving throws rules, Movement rules + table, Dungeon exploration procedure + rules, Wilderness exploration procedure + rules, Encounters procedure + rules, Downtime rules, Summary of class abilities + class tables, Equipment list + weapon stats, Land vehicles.

Class Character Sheets - The Bundle
Publisher: Dungeon Masters Guild

I looked through a LOT of character class sheets before I found these. I used these for my pre-gen characters at conventions and they were just what I needed.

Neverland - The Impossible Island

Get https://www.amazon.com/Neverland-Fantasy-Role-Playing-Andrew-Kolb/dp/1524860204 instead. You won't be disappointed! For $15 you get a beautiful hardcover book with an elaborate setting and monsters to explore. This, The Impossible Island is basically free but also very bland.

Journey To Ragnarok - Adventure and Setting for 5e
Publisher: Mana Project Studio
by Michael I. [Verified Purchaser]
Date Added: 09/01/2023 11:58:11

I thought there would be a LOT more to this adventure. Instead, it's almost entirely setting info AND not the useful kind that gives you locations you can drop into your campaign. I was very disappointed.

Worlds Without Master, Issue 10
Publisher: Dig a Thousand Holes Publishing
by Michael I. [Verified Purchaser]
Date Added: 09/01/2023 11:53:13

This issue includes the EXCELLENT narrative games Swords without Master! Swords without Master created a new mechanic where the tone of each scene is rolled and also and an interesting way to determine who's turn it is. If you have any interest in narrative fantasy games, you should look up reviews of Swords without Master and then pick this issue up!

Quest for Dragon Spire
Publisher: Gallant Knight Games
by Michael I. [Verified Purchaser]
Date Added: 08/28/2023 11:39:17

I know this is only $2 but even then I don't think I got anything interesting or original. For a starter adventure, it doesn't include a lot of details or anything regarding how things in the adventure interact with the rules so I don't think it does the job well.

Tiny Frontiers: Revised
Publisher: Gallant Knight Games
by Mike I. [Verified Purchaser]
Date Added: 08/28/2023 11:35:46

Not as complete a Tiny Dungeons but a reasonably decent micro-game. The micro-settings are more intriguing in this one than in Tiny Dungeons. This one is different enough from Tiny Dungeons to warrant a purchase. It's not worth $15 (especially if you already have any other Tiny Dungeons) but well worth it for the $5 deal of the day I paid. The critique around the bestiary is fair...luckily you can re-skin the monsters from Dungeons.
