Super simple, clear, and cool! I wonder if a version for GMs would make sense for inexperienced ones :) I'd buy

Developer

I thought about it, but I think the index card format is not suitable for GMs. When I threw the idea to my contacts they thought GMs might prefer to prepare  with more thorough material. Thanks for the suggestion, though! :)

I think it is very important to set expectations at the onset of a game, and OSR-style titles come with their own unique challenges. What a lovely little tool to remind players what they're in for.
It's a safety tool, functionally. I love safety tools.

Developer

I haven't think about this as a safety tool until now, but I completely agree! It can kick off a pre game conversation.

I imagine this would help someone coming from a 5E background to understand the principles of a more old school style.

Developer

Yes! That's what motivated this project in the beginning! :)

I love this - wish I had known about it sooner!

Hi Hugh! I'm glad to read you like it! :) 

And there will always be new players to use them with ;)

Cheers!
