That’s to say there’s a lot of “new.” All of these ideas spring from a list of all-star <strong>5e</strong> creators, many who have worked for <strong>Wizards of the Coast</strong> during their careers. All of this content is wrapped in a setting and artwork that recalls <strong><em>Labyrinth, The Last Unicorn,</em></strong> the warmth of David Wenzel’s <strong><em>The Hobbit</em></strong> artwork, and <strong><em>Alice in Wonderland</em></strong>.

[B][I]Surviving Strangehollow[/I][/B] is a third party [B]5e[/B] sourcebook that has new subclasses, new spells, and a new class in addition to new rules for non-combat dangers, wilderness exploration, character transformation, and more. That’s to say there’s a lot of “new.” All of these ideas spring from a list of all-star [B]5e[/B] creators, many who have worked for [B]Wizards of the Coast[/B] during their careers. All of this content is wrapped in a setting and artwork that recalls [B][I]Labyrinth, The Last Unicorn,[/I][/B] the warmth of David Wenzel’s [B][I]The Hobbit[/I][/B] artwork, and [B][I]Alice in Wonderland[/I][/B]. If you’re looking for new [B]5e[/B] mechanics, many from “official” [B]WotC[/B] creators, this campaign deserves a click.

You can provide “boons, blessings, charms, pacts, titles, histories, advanced trainings” to give the characters a benefit other than treasure or a new character level. I like the idea of rewards that aren’t magic items and aren’t random OP crunch.

This is for the true cat enthusiasts of the world. Why? In order to play this TTRPG, your suspension of disbelief requires that you buy into this premise: Other animals are in Chaos Cults and you, a cat, are secretly defending humanity. The core rulebook is 300 pages giving rules light options and setting information. If you have a cat character in you that can be both a cat and save others, this game awaits. Is this right for your gaming table? If you believe that cats are secret heroes, check out [B][I]Cats of Catthulhu[/I][/B].

No magic, reduced power creep at higher levels, monsters pulled from what paleontologists discover, and more, this is a different take on [B]5e[/B]. Coming as three books, one offers a full ruleset, another contains the setting, and a third has a campaign for levels 1 to 20. If the idea of a fully realized, magic-free, deadly version of [B]5e[/B] appeals to you, check out this campaign.

[B][I]Bunker in the Badlands[/I][/B] is an adventure set in a magic apocalypse. As mentioned in [URL='https://www.enworld.org/threads/meet-our-columnists-egg-embry.702202/']my recent interview with Michael Tresca[/URL], I’m working on a [B]B/X[/B] set in the 1970s, so getting to see another creator’s approach to modern settings using [B]OSE[/B] is a win for me as a creator. If you’re an OSR fan, these books open up some new gaming options and they’re worth your review.
