This personal diary is devoted to the unveiling of the old fantasy role-playing games of the past (1975-1989),especially those which - for whatever reasons - are lesser known, forgotten, obscure or neglected. Besides, it deals with overlooked movies of the same genre, of the kind you can only find in VHS if you are lucky enough. A journey into the abysses of fantasy.

No worries CL. Now that I own a physical copy of the game, and when I finally get off my arse, I'll start a series of posts on this sadly overlooked gem.
What the author did is excellent, but in so many ways impractical. This is a game that needs some serious rewriting to make it more accessible, but having said that I absolutely love original format.
I love the little riddle book. :D
My edition came on 3x5 cards and in addtion to the rules contained a complete campaign setting and several dungeons. Never seen anything like it before or since. However, I am not sure 3x5 cards and micro print is the best format for old eyes like mine, and for gods sake don't ever drop them.
I have good vision and it's not great for that either. If only he'd dispensed with the huge number of abbreviations and produced it with a more accessible format it might've got some more attention.
