[QUOTE="Dragoslav, post: 6044446, member: 6690267"] I was literally just about to post something about this at this very moment. :) Before I say anything else, let me say first that I never write reviews for anything, but my enthusiasm for this game is an all-time high. When I found out about the first Shadows of Esteren Kickstarter, I instantly fell in love with what I saw of the world, the atmosphere, and the game system. I only contributed a small pledge, though, to make sure that I was getting a quality product, and that if I liked it then I would contribute more to the next one. I could not have predicted just how impressed I was with the product. Book 1 knocked me off my feet with the artwork, the excellent writing style, and -- last but not least -- the game system itself. When they say that the game is inspired by Gothic and horror works, they're not kidding -- the game system supports a beautifully dark atmosphere, mystery, and a detailed sanity system that makes even going insane not an end to your story, but an exciting new chapter in it. Needless to say, I pledged as much as I could for this Kickstarter, and I hope that the number of pledges grow so that we English-speakers can keep getting more excellent content from this team. Book 0 isn't a mandatory purchase by any means, and it's mostly geared towards Game Leaders because half of the book consists of three (very excellent) adventures that a player wouldn't want to spoil for himself, but I'd say it's nearly essential for potential Game Leaders who want to introduce their gaming group to a new system and at least play a one-shot scenario or several sessions with the premade adventures. For a mere $5 you can purchase a PDF version online and see for yourself how high the quality is. Even if you don't want Book 0, with your pledge you can get access to Book 1 and other bonuses (music cd, folders, bookmarks, artwork). The best part is, if the Kickstarter can reach $50,000 (it's already at $37,000 now), we also get access to Book 2! There is a growing and active English-language community on the official Esteren site, and I encourage anyone interested to come join us. :) [URL]http://esteren.org/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
