I mean yeah, of course I like it! We came at this from vaguely similar angles, and not just the monster minion aspect, but the granular skill/ attribute checks, too.  Mechanics all seem sound (I'm also a fan of die progression!), although I would have appreciated just a little more information on how monsters progress (presumably they receive additional HP or not? )

One thing that would have rounded this off as a more complete game would be just a little on the GM side, like various suggested follow-ups to  session 0.  That said, so few games have a structured session 0 so that has to stack in your favour.

The layout was clear and the document really well structured.

Finally, the world-building was excellent, not least due to its brevity! It establishes the tone perfectly, as well as serving as a taster for the starting session.

Great work - well done for being so diligent in reviewing our fellow jammers! I keep coming across your reviews and realising I need to get to yours. Sorry it was a tad late, I have a system, trust me!

Haha, I figured you would! A few of us had, you are the monster angles in there.

Yup! I wish leveling was in there too haha. The way I am going to have it work is a monster gets points for failing tasks / being risky.  Eventually a bit more HP and stat points. And obviously more fun abilities. All for V2.

Thanks! I'm really proud of my session 0. It's something I wish more games did. More content to come. With more lore hooks (not a ton... not looking to bog the players down with history)! But that's another thing that I want to avoid is too much lore. There are so many content rich settings that overload new players with their rich histories to the point that players have a really high point of entry. And if you like that, great! But for the rest of us... lore hooks.

No worries! I was really looking forward to your review and am glad to see it. Been noticing your name pop up a lot as well for reviews... so awesome job! I just feel like everyone put in so much work that it would be crazy not to give these games the effort that was put in. Thanks again!
