It depends on what you need

First off, the quality of the content is the usual top of the line content you'd expect. The art is great, the items seem play-tested, and the ideas are truly unique. The core idea of the book is High Cost, High Reward.

I think the stand-out here is "Dark Transformations". It uses prestige feats to build a kind of "side-class" where you can become a Lich or be cursed to a vampire and more. It's unobtrusive on most the player's build choices but still impactful to their experience.

The weak point in the book is not really a problem with the book, but more that Eventyr's Press's "Enchanted Emporium"--released a year later--does a better job with the ideas at play in the Runes section. It reads more like a first draft to that excellent later system, which is to say it's not bad but if you are buying it for that, get "Enchanted Emporiums". This is why I deducted a star, though I do wonder if I'm being fair. If this is irrelevant to you, consider it a 5 star review.

Finally, Jinxes and Hexes are brilliant fun. The former is a way for players to apply a debuff to an enemy before they even fight them--which is a great device for building a campaign. Hexes are a fun way for players to get some rather substantial buffs with character-defining downsides.

Overall, the book fills a good gap for dark folkloric fantasy. If you're trying to put together a "morally grey witches in the woods", Curse of Strahd-esque campaign, then this book is solid gold.

Another Excelent Product

This was another i was fortunate enough to back on Kickstarter, and i have to say its another quality product. Reworking wild magic, giving 100 options of wild magic and an improved way for it to happen.

Rune magic before Bigby's rune magic came out was and is amazing, and making it with its own flavor. Hexcrafting and the curses are so much fun and add so much more to the game.

The puzzles and traps were really fun to read and the extra magic items just add something more that you can even add into other campaigns adventures.

The 3 adventures are also fun to just play or drop in to any campaign.

All in all another great product and well worth getting.

Excellent product as always

I will buy everything that they put out, it's all quality products that is made extremely well, the books are amazing, the content and artwork is always perfect. And it means a lot to be able to have a PDF and hardcover bundle. Not every website does this which is a little surprising considering it's 2023 and it should be a standard
