Reviews

[Niall · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is a strong intro to the game of the era—each of the adventurers is self-contained, but it shows a nice breadth of plots( epic save-the-day fantasy, haunted house, spacefaring, and a classic dungeon crawl). It reminded me positively of the old Red Box, but updated in both scope and style to the time.
