...So please, please, please – if what I mentioned above even slightly resonates with you, take a look at this, buy this and support Playground Adventures so we get more.

To paraphrase Saint-Exupéry, this book is very much the spirit breathing upon the clay oft he mechanics to create more soul for both items, magic and creatures. There is narrative potential for years in the system presented here and I absolutely love it to bits. This book is stellar and deserves a final verdict of 5 stars + seal of approval, is a candidate for my top ten of 2016 and receives the EZG Essentials-tag." - Endzeitgeist
