The book is published by Goodman Games, with the concept and layout being by the frontman, Joseph Goodman.DM Campaign Tracker is a 16 page saddle stitched softcover book, though all available space is used – even the inside covers and back cover. The booklet is $4.99.The front cover depicts a woman bearing a sword standing with her back to a pillar, along with a blank for the name of your campaign.The interior is black and white, though pages have a decorative watermark and thin borders.The inside front cover is the only actual rulesy-content, containing tables for random NPC names & traits and tavern names. The back cover is an initiative tracker, taking advantage of the cover lamination to allow the use of wipe-off marker.The rest of the book is filled with forms for tracking various aspects of your game. Forms cover a variety of topics including basic world and campaign details, allowed supplements, details of deities and organizations, towns and cities, rumors and plot threads, NPCs, summarized PC details, items, a world calendar, session history, XP log (2 pages), rules reference of that page you are always forgetting, campaign variants, house rules, and custom encounter tables.Now most of these forms are nicely laid out and potentially useful. The first problem I can immediately see is running out of space. So you can just photocopy extras right? Well, like many such small nicely laid out books like this, there is no permission to copy form, so depending on your conscience or how uncooperative your Kinko's clerk is, that could be a no-go.Personally, it seems to me like blank paper or a word processor would be more ideal for most of these forms. However, the price tag is not exactly sticker-shock material at $5, so if you have some trouble organizing your thinking regarding your campaign, you might want to pick it up.Overall Grade: C -Alan D.
