4 out of 5 rating for Menzoberranzan: City of Intrigue There is a lot of reasons to love Menzoberranzan: City of Intrigue, and it offers a great deal of potential to Dungeon Masters for running a very unique style of evil campaign in any edition of D&D, and a wide variety of other fantasy...

5 out of 5 rating for Ed Greenwood Presents: Elminster’s Forgotten Realms Ed Greenwood Presents: Elminster’s Forgotten Realms is an absolute delight for fantasy fans, whether you enjoyed the novels generated from this world, or had experienced it as a setting for fantasy role-playing games! For...

4 out of 5 rating for ICONS Superpowered Roleplaying: The Assembled Edition There may are a lot of superhero comic book roleplaying games out there for the gaming community to try out, but ICONS GREAT POWER! is definitely worth checking out. The content in ICONS GREAT POWER! is very complete...

4 out of 5 rating for The Last Parsec Based upon the contents of the Eris Beta-V campaign sourcebook, The Last Parsec setting is definitely off to a Big Bang of a start! The writing and layout are excellent, the plots are engaging and downright epic, and this is just the first of three books...

3 out of 5 rating for Mystical: Kingdom of Monsters If you’re a PFRPG fan who has always desired to play Pokémon with bulettes, glabrezu, trolls, and whatever the heck a tesoroo is, then this book might be just what you’re looking for in a (very) light campaign setting. For other Pathfinder...

5 out of 5 rating for Lords of Waterdeep Unanimously, all three Lords who played this session of Lords of Waterdeep had a great time, and were all very impressed with not only the appearance and look of the game, but how fun and balanced it was for everyone at the table. The game plays pretty...

4 out of 5 rating for Shadowrun 5th Edition Well, I tried my best to contain myself during the review, but now I can freely admit I am absolutely thrilled by the new Shadowrun 5th Edition Core Rules. The SR5 core rulebook is not only visually stimulating, but is well-organized and a pleasure to...

4 out of 5 rating for 13th Age Core Book I have to admit there is a lot to like about 13th Age, and I can see many 4E fans meeting Pathfinder/OGL fans on common ground with this game. While it has some mechanics which are reminiscent of both d20 and 4E, it strives very hard to favor...

4 out of 5 rating for Dungeon! Board Game DUNGEON! is one of those board games that has always been fun to play, and this new rendition of the game is no exception. It’s easy to learn, fast-paced, and just a darned good time to play - even solo. It is very much a family style game, and both...

5 out of 5 rating for D&D 5th Edition Dungeon Master's Guide As Dungeon Master’s Guides go, this new D&D 5th Edition one is a strong contender for the top spot. While it might be claimed that there are quite a few similarities between this new DMG and the older AD&D DMG, it would be hard to...

The fans have been ever so patient… The D&D Player’s Handbook has been in their hands before GENCON 2014… and the Monster Manual appeared on store shelves about a month later. But the third Core rulebook has been absent for months now, with only tantalizing glimpses of its secrets released to...

Back when D&D 4E was still a thing, a 3rd Party Publisher named Northwinter Press released a supplement aimed at merging elements of Dungeons & Dragons 4th Edition with the well-known Pokémon franchise. The resulting genre mash-up setting was reviewed here on EN World a little over a year ago...

4 out of 5 rating for Hoard of the Dragon Queen Hoard of the Dragon Queen is a spectacular first campaign release for the new edition of D&D - and if this is indicative of future releases, 5th Edition Dungeons & Dragons is off to a grand start. The adventure series is well written and...

5 out of 5 rating for D&D 5th Edition Monster Manual It’s possible that the new 5th Edition D&D Monster Manual might very well be the grandest MM ever produced for this RPG. Certainly, the D&D Monster Manual is physically one of the sturdiest designs -not all of the old MM’s were so well made...

4 out of 5 rating for D&D 5th Edition Player's Handbook The new D&D Player’s Handbook is a truly remarkable RPG product, and a fine new addition to a very long lineage of Dungeons & Dragons editions. The layout and writing are superb, and the illustrations are breathtaking, making the whole...

4 out of 5 rating for The Rise of Tiamat The Rise of Tiamat is an epic and smashing conclusion to the campaign arc that began with Hoard of the Dragon Queen, and will likely be one of those adventure series that players and DMs will be discussing with the same fond-dread as Tomb of Horrors and...

4 out of 5 rating for D&D 5th Edition Starter Set If the D&D Starter Set is any indication of the quality and work that will go into the rest of this new edition D&D product line, then it's very likely the game has a real future for years to come. The streamlined rules, pre-generated character...

The OSR or Old School Renaissance (or perhaps better phrased Revival?) has really changed how many gamers play RPGs over the past decade or so. Coupled with the ease of publishing online, numerous new publishers and new authors have taken ideas of the earliest forms of role-playing games and...
