Howdy,
Apologies for the lateness of my reply.
>>Ah, and there was I thinking that I merely expected a reviewer to actually tell me something coherant about the game, rather than trying to sound zany.
How exactly *does* one assign Ranks to things? What actually determines your starting Mojo? What, game mechanically, does mojo actually *do*? How exactly is the game like FUDGE?
Of course, all those answers might be there, but my blindness and stupidity stops me from seeing them. It's a good thing I can touch type.<<
The game occupies a total of 64 pages.
The one thing I will NOT do is give away the mechanics of an entire game, especially when said game is in the "rules lite" category. That would be unfair to the author.
A review is to inform the reader what a game is about, not tell a reader blow for blow how every single game mechanic works. That, believe it or not, is what the GAME MANUAL is for.
More to the point: If you really want to know how things work then buy the game. Otherwise you're complaining only for the sake of stirring up trouble, and that spells TROLL.
If the game concept sounds interesting to you then, by all means, support the author. If it doesn't then don't. It's your call.
Kind Regards,
Kester Pelagius
