<p>Overall, “Alleys of Zobeck” put me in mind of the old Judges Guild products. (Judges Guild was, I think, the first non-TSR company to produce supplements for D&D.) Their “Ready Ref Sheets” booklet was also an eclectic mix of interesting and useful stuff, which I still occasionally use even today (most recently, about two weeks ago). May Alleys of Zobeck have an equally long and useful life!

<p>It's definitely a collection of useful tools and elements for urban gameplay. I could see it used with Council of Thieves, or Black Company, or Thieves' World or Lankhmar, or Riddleport or Freeport or... Well, it's generally useful, is what I'm saying.</p>Thank you for the review, DM!
