Another bundle - Sigil Stone
Jan. 3rd, 2022 06:07 pmAnother fantasy bundle, two fantasy RPGs based on the "old school revival" idea of reviving the glory days of D&D etc., compatible with two modern rules system, D&D5E and Apocalypse Engine. Five Torches Deep is a streamlined dungeon-bashing type of game with a lot of the complexities removed - for example, there are only four main character classes with e.g. clerics being a subset of fighters rather than completely separate. Vagabonds of Dyfed seems to be a more complex game, but I'm really not sure exactly how it differs from others since the product description works by comparing it to numerous other games I don't know very well, and by referencing rules changes that imply that I'm familiar with the rules that have been modified. Both fall into the stereotypical "fight monsters and take their stuff" genre.
( Sigil Stone )
It's about 25 years since I last played a pure dungeon-bashing adventure, and to be honest I don't particularly want to go back to the genre. Both look reasonably well presented, and it's an unusually cheap bundle; if these are the sort of games you like it's worth a look.
