I thought about getting this when it was on kickstarter because I'm really weird. I've been playing RPG's for about 45 years now and so I'm always looking for new ideas to add to my games. For some reason I didn't get it, but then later saw a great deal online and decided to pick it up.

Glad I waited because I didn't realize that the book is really just a big book of tables. Since it's not system specific the items in the tables are really just ideas that you must develop to decide how they affect your game. For me, the problem with these kinds of lists is that I'll roll and not like the result, and so I'll roll again, and not like that result, until I finally just start to browse them all until I find something I like that works for that moment. Not really something I want to do during a game with 4 people staring at me waiting for a response.

So I did what anyone with spare time and ADD would do. I went through each table and picked out the items that I liked and typed them into excel. Sometimes out of 80 items I would only like 3 or 4, sometimes 20 or 30. But doing this definitely supports what I was talking about above. Now I have my own tables with only items that I like.

Other than tables the book has some awesome artwork, some short creepy/weird stories (like a paragraph or two at most). ( )
