xirycrawl (in particular misery citycrawl) are for me the most interesting subset in this Jam. This one is maybe the best citycrawl, packed with info on how to run a quite complex scenario
I liked the vibe you were going for, in looking like a collaborative WIP build, but that did make sussing out which part to read 1st a bit harder than it needed to be. It is original, though, in over 110+ reviews. I like the Devourer as a kinda fantasy kaiju concept, and that he can be defeated rather than just outrun. Good work!
So… it’s just starting, is it? Grab the dice and go? Okay. Will do.
I’ll just give everyone another hook/goal and play with my 150 Foot Devourer till everybody’S dead.
Takes a moment to grasp what one is looking at. After that, it’s great :-D
Very interesting and original layout and writing!
I love this concept, I love the colossus monster. Gets this Greek mythology vibes! really useful to make a giant monster to be the BBEG or a boss. I love the layout it feels like a teenager from the 1980s came to find the book then layout in a desperate need to set up for tonight's dnd game night.
Cool concept! When my players inevitably awaken some terrible colossus somewhere I might pull the mechanics out from this. I think you nailed the vibes you were going for but it does make the last quarter of the layout a bit busy. (the monster stats and mayoral mansion are especially hard to parse)
A strong and personal writing voice carry the colossal weight of game information. Notes, scribbles and statblocks printed on old school computer paper give it all a very tangible and charming feel.
Oh damn, this one is cracking! Initial impression was it's really busy but spending time with it I can see a lot of smart layout choices throughout and it's actually very accessible. The little notes throughout are great, like a RPG group has ran and ran this module into the ground with all the various chaos that entails.
Public domain art used really well here too, top notch :)
This really brings joy to my Shadows of the Colossus heart. A great adventure; great mechanics; really excited to run this. It does a really good job stirring ideas for future adventures too. It's such a great module.
Adore the cover art, and really digging the mixed media layout of the content.
I love the found document layout.
